Tybee Day 4

Day 4 on Tybee Island. I woke at 7:30 and took in the locals and breakfast at one of the best places for it, The Breakfast Club. Good eggs good coffee and lots of people some visiting some who call this place home and some who call it home once a year. The three people I met today were all from major cities Boston, Atlanta and the owner who is originally from the Chicago area.  You can tell by the pace of the place that a city slicker is running it.  I think it's a good thing he is though because it stays busy and there is a line out the door every day.  I road back to the beach cottage, I like feeling the wind in my hair when I zoom down the road.  About an hour and a half later, we all went to do a bit more shopping.  We walked to the big peer and then went to lunch at Spanky's SeaFood galley and saloon.  It is right next to the beach and the the food was pretty yummy!  After lunch we road back and I am currently taking a brake from people and sun at the same time my traveling buddies decided to do more sea bathing and I decided it might be better for us all if I had some alone time.  :). Later on we are planning on taking a boat trip with Captain Mike, following that we will be having dinner, I hope, at AJ's which is located on the west side of the beach where the marsh area is.  We will eat dinner on the dock and watch the sun set.  There is more people on the island this year,last year we went in mid May and there was't the crowds on the beach like this year.  The evenings are better though, most people don't hang out on the beach in the late evening, just as the sun is about to go down, personally I think I like that time the best.  The sea when I am near it, makes me still and slow, it reminds me of a place I have not yet been, and speaks of the truth of it's reality.  The sea helps me to stop and consider it's creator.  :)

Little mundane pleasures of life

It’s Monday afternoon, and I am very thankful for the little mundane pleasures of life that God gives us.  For Lunch I sautéed onions in a bit of butter, I seasoned it with garlic powder and dried cilantro a bit of black pepper and some pink Himalayan sea salt.  After the onions were slightly soft, I lowered the temp on the stove top and cracked three eggs over the onions, after they were set a bit I turned them and the onions over and added a bit of parmesan.  after two more minutes it was ready with the eggs being just a little runny.  It was really good.  As I sat there eating I thanked our Father as I took a bite.  I thanked him for each ingredient and I thanked him for letting us experience good tasting things. for making our taste buds.  He didn’t have to do that, He didn’t have to make us that way and he didn’t have to make good tasting things to eat, but he did.  

Colorado

In the fall of 1995 I attended vincennes University. I studied sign language and English. All that semester, I was not motivated, and I had decided that I didn't know what I wanted to major in. As December came around I had decided not to go back second semester. That first semester was already really expensive, and I didn't want to spend more money when I had know idea what I wanted to do. I moved back home, and got a job at Wall-mart as a night st ocker in the craft and fabric department. I hated it, and worst of all I felt like I was a failer. At that point, sense i was working at night and sleeping during the day I really did not have a group of people to fellowship with. Also, all my friends had moved away to collage or got married and started having kids. In July of 1996, I decided to take advantage of my Aunt and Uncle's offer to come stay with them in Colorado, I remember making the chose as a response to feeling like I was too comfortable just living at home. I lo...

Hope

Isaiah 54:1-17 [1] “Sing, barren woman, you who never bore a child; burst into song, shout for joy, you who were never in labor; because more are the children of the desolate woman than of her who has a husband, ” says the Lord. [2] “Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. [3] For you will spread out to the right and to the left; your descendants will dispossess nations and settle in their desolate cities. [4] “Do not be afraid; you will not be put to shame. Do not fear disgrace; you will not be humiliated. You will forget the shame of your youth and remember no more the reproach of your widowhood. [5] For your Maker is your husband---the Lord Almighty is his name---the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer; he is called the God of all the earth. [6] The Lord will call you back as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit---a wife who married young, only to be rejected,” says your God. [7]...
