My Old Kentucky Home

What a great song eh? Ok, maybe not. This past week Megan and I have been in Kentucky visiting various friends and family.... a total of 1,200 miles of driving Just around Kentucky. You could say it was a busy week. We had a blast... It was truly a great week. Over the week an especially as we were flying out i came to several realizations:

-Kentucky is no longer my home. I'm now into the great unknown, i'm not sure if God would ever call me to live there again. It's really scary, but it's cool because i am totally up to where the Lord is leading myself and Megan.

-I have an amazing women in my life, she is amazing and my life is forever changed from moving to vegas and meeting her.

--My friends and family are amazing, they showed so much hospitality to me... and truly welcomed me with open arms.. It was awesome.

-God roots us deep only to transplant us. Let your roots be deep, but make sure your able to grow wherever God may place you.

- I've realized that God is all that i have in this life. I have no fall-back plan.... OUr live should look very different from others. We should be extraordinary people who do things that do not make sense, crazy things, you don't play it safe... you take risks.... and we're not to sure what God's going to do with our risks. But we are going to take them...

That's what i realized as our American Airlines jet parted the clouds... It was quite revolutionary.
