Great God and King!!! thank You for today! thank You for charlie, however difficult he can be at times. please let my frustration be minimal. give me understanding and patience. please let him grow up to be a good dog. Lord, i pray for sarrah's love toward him. i know he's not porter, but i trust we were supposed to get him when we did-thank You! God-grant her the time to spend w/ him and to bond with him. God, let my new job pay enough, and please give me a future in it. thank You for deliverance from the restaurant industry. please keep me out from it. i pray sarrah may leave it soon as well. as long as she is there, please give her peace and understanding about her goodness and worth in that place. God, show her right now, and for the next several days in her dreams while she sleeps about her positive impact in that place. God, i also pray for healing in her body. God, i know i've asked for a lot of things, really, first and foremost, i ask for a life dedicated to Your service and a heart after Your will. let sarrah and i completely focus on You and Your Kingdom! nothing else matters...

love, Your servant,

Heavenly Father, how great You are! my last shift at houston's was saturday, feb. 18. yesterday was a holiday, so today is my first day without a job. God, You alone are Lord! Lord, give sarrah peace about this. i pray for her health. You know what i need, let sarrh rest in that, however uncomfortable it is. we rest in You. thank You for last sat, the money i made, and the contacts i made. especially ivan and james. God, i pray for this job at ielement. if it is, let it be. You alone know the plan You have for me, i trust You...

God-

here i am once again on my face and on my knees. porter was hit by an expedition while i was running w/ him and now 2 weeks later, i lost my job. wow. so... here i am. You woke me up and You have my complete attention and focus once again. where do i go from here? how do i take care of Your sarrah that you've entrusted to me?
seminary-no $$, calling?

dorian-ministry opportunity; unknown $, unknown benefits, probably fun!
