Psalm 62:1

"My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him."

It's amazing how the right scripture at the right time can bring everything to an amazing re-focusing in your life. I've been crazy busy with work literally working 12-16 hour days easy. I've been using it as an excuse and my devotion time has been suffering. I've been so tired, so worn out and couldn't put a finger on why.
"MY SOUL FINDS REST IN GOD ALONE"
The truth is I'm warn out and tired because I haven't been eating, I've let my my sword sit and get dull. In turn I've been suffering because of it, getting weaker and weaker. I know that I don't "have" to spend time with God, but I choose to I want to, because the truth is "MY SOUL FINDS REST IN GOD ALONE" My strength comes from God.

Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song.
Psalm 73:26
My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

I find my STRENGTH in God alone, I can't rely on my own strengths they will fail every time, it is in His word and in His presence that I am rejuvenated and my strength comes from him!

Psalm 119:103
"How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!"

Blessings friends!

Sleep? Whats that??

So, I've been very busy....

Christmas was great, was nice to be able to spoil the kids once again and get spoiled by friends and family. I got some great gifts this year. I'm not very big on Christmas, I'm not a 100% why but I'm not. I'm learning to be for my kids sake. So they get to have all the fun with it when the get old ;-)

Work has been crazy busy lately its hard to keep up, I'm not complaining at all just very busy. It's been great cause after the Euro-can announcement things seemed to really grind to a halt for about a month or so. So we were and are able to catch up on things that got missed and didn't have to skimp out over the holidays. Granted we didn't go nearly as crazy as we did last year but we still spent to much money :-P

Things don't show any sign of slowing anytime soon either so thats cool. I'm gonna have to take to napping when I can so I can get some sorta sleep happening. New Years is quickly approaching and I'll be DJ'ing again this year, HUGE party its actually a lot of fun to DJ. Anyways I figured since I haven't updated for a little while I better, not like anyone would notice it seems none of you are updating either. Wednesday were having dinner guests, and I offered to cook for it so I'll be making a dish I made actually quite sometime ago now but here's the rough recipe;

**1 Onion ~ diced
**Couple of garlic cloves crushed
some oil in the pan to saute the garlic and onion
**Lots fresh mushrooms sliced and sauted then added to the onions and garlic
**9 boneless chicken breasts. (First I'll bbq'd them with sweet chilli sauce, seasoning salt, coarse pepper.) Then I'll cut them into bite sized pieces.
**Red and Yellow and Orange peppers diced up. Then I added the chicken and peppers to the pan and **Cream then some **Dry white wine
Then I'll add some more of the **Sweet chili sauce to the mix and let simmer for about 15 mins or more

Christy will be making a fresh green salad to go with it and we'll be having fresh Brownies and Ice Cream for desert.

So ya, looking forward to that we have some friends in for out of town that we want to hang out with so we figured after the great meal they fed us when we visited them in Vancouver that we would do the same here :-D

G'nite all I'm off to bed before midnight lol

Blessings

Christmas is coming...

So Christmas is coming, I haven't done any shopping which is TOTALLY normal haha. I did get a the new iPhone even though Steph didn't give me any inside advice :-P It should be here any day HOPEFULLY... My phone died like I said in my previous post so I need something to fill that void.

Work has been ok, not great but good enough. I need to get more sleep but that's totally self inflicted.. I was pretty excited to start blogging again but I seem to have lost that motivation, it comes and goes I suppose.. Like most of you though I have noticed that it's been dead around the land of Blog.

Anyone have exciting Christmas plans or are you guys just staying home??

Does anyone leave Christmas shopping till Christmas eve like me?

Anyways I'm still DJ'ing lots this season and Jenny was the only one who thought of a DJ name for me, so you win the prize! Pick some tunes I'll rip you a good disc.

Ok well I'm out for now later!

I need a new phone...

To iPhone or not to iPhone...

I could just get a new blackberry..

My current phone is broken :( The mobile network turns itself off, the battery drains instead of charges when plugged in...

I'm Back!

Hey everyone, sorry to leave you hanging for so long I had other things to do that required I pay full attention to them. Long week, or two whatever it's been.. I really felt God calling me to share the word on a Sunday morning and with Mike&Moe being away I offered to fill a need if one should arise. Turned out there was a spot that I could be used so I got to my studying, I had already felt the Spirit leading me in a direction so I just spent some time in prayer and hit the books.

Well Sunday's gone and past and God showed up thankfully, cause if I had it would've been terrible haha. I just wanted to share a little of what I shared on Sunday here for my friends and blog fans.

Matthew 22:37-39
“And he said to him, “You should love the Lord your God with all your heart (kardia – inner self)and with all your soul (psyche – your animate self) and with all your mind (dianoia – understanding). This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbour as yourself.”

Let’s take a deeper look at what Jesus is saying; each one of these overlaps the other, even in the Greek; the Kardia, Psyche and Dianoia all reflect one another. It’s with all of your heart, all of your soul and all of your mind. There is no exclusivity here; were to love God with all of our being our whole person, with everything that we are. Together these three demand our love for God to come from our whole person. It’s his first and greatest commandment. It requires us to lay down our selfishness, our motives and to give it all to him! I love how Deuteronomy says it

Deuteronomy 6:4-9 ESV.
“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.”

Isn’t that so incredible, WITH ALL YOUR HEART, ALL YOUR SOUL and ALL YOUR MIGHT! It’s so important that we need to always keep these words on our heart; we need to teach them to our kids and meditate on them day and night, to bind them to our hands a reminder like a sticky note on your fridge or mirror in your bathroom, and it needs to be always on our mind. Were to love God with everything we are. With all our might!

That wasn't the entire message but was definitely one of the key points. I also wanted to tell you all that the book I finished by Timothy Keller - The Reason For God. IS A MUST READ Seriously hands down one of the best books I've read this year (aside from my bible, which I'm currently reading Hebrews right now goooooood stuff!)
Anyways thanks for reading, thanks for your comments and know that I pray for you!

Blessings!

Robin Mark - Fortress

Verse 1

I have found a Fortress in the Living God
I have made the Sov'reign Lord my refuge
And my voice will tell of all His saving grace
Though the depths of which
No man could measure
In the days of plenty in the days of want
I will put my trust in You alone
For there's no heart greater than the Father's heart
And there's no love sweeter than the Son's

Hallelujah hallelujah hallelujah to my King
Hallelujah hallelujah Jesus Christ my ev'rything
(REPEAT)

Verse 2

That this love pursued us is a mystery
For the heart is base and You are holy
Yet the streams of mercy that flow over me
Will afford me grace to stand in glory
Where with men and angels
Where with slaves and kings
I will sing my praise to You alone
For there's no heart greater than the Father's heart
And there's no love sweeter than the Son's

So it Begins!

Well the season is finally upon me where I burn the candle at both ends... Why you ask well I DJ on the side for fun.. I've always loved music and what better job then getting paid to do what you love. It's a great gig I don't have to book, I don't really have to deal with the clients AND I don't have to chase people down to pay me. Sight&Sound does it all for me and drops a nice chunk of change in my pocket.


No I don't use turn tables although I'd love to give it a try and see how it is. I just thought it was a cool pic. So here's the catch I don't have a DJ name and I figure that every DJ needs a "DJ name" right? Apparently according to some of my friends who've heard me DJ I do have a DJ voice ha-ha whatever that is. So anyways fire me some thoughts all will be considered and maybe there will even be a cool prize or something.

Prize ideas? I've got TONNES of music I could rip you a couple discs.
