on my mind is this!

sorry to all of you pro bloggers who are mad at me for taking so long with a new posting. i just had something on my mind that i wanted to share. many of you have heard or talked about this before and may have thought as i have. have you ever got bummed out because you didnt have some cool story or testimony. maybe it sounds ridiculous, but at times i have wished that i was born in the streets of brooklyn, with a stump for a leg and living on food stamps. okay, maybe a little overboard, but you get my point. i wish i had a testimony that people listened to and got goosebumps. i had heard these stories in the past and even still many times i hear them and wish that my life wasnt so........well.....easy! but then i remember and am told by my wife and others that this a load of crap! i am so extremely blessed! God has worked in my life and continues to do so very powerfully. In my more sane moments i know that God has brought me to a place that calls me to seek him everyday. why should it matter if i got to that point with a family that loved and cared for me or if i was the apostle Paul, who killed xians for a living at one point. Dont get me wrong. Many stories i have heard that are very moving help thousands of people. I guess what i am trying to say is that its not about me!!!!! it does not matter what kind of story i have. God can still use me to help others even without a tearjerker of a story. Heck, my story is amazing because i am forgiven!!!!!!!!
