The Best Parents In The World

My dad posted on my facebook a couple of weeks back what a pleasure the last 32 years had been being my dad. Well, in turn, I thought I would let my parents (and the rest of the world) know how amazing I think they are. Something I've been meaning to do for a long time anyway.

I'm sure a lot of people think that they have the best parents in the world, while others feel like maybe they got jipped (not sure how to spell that). Fortunately, I have been blessed to be on the good end thinking (or actually knowing) that I DO have the best parents in the world. While they weren't perfect, they did an amazing job raising my brother and I.

They were (and still are) great examples to us of living godly lives, making God a priority, sharing the Good News, and much more. We were always taken care of and loved beyond belief.

This is my thanks to them. Thank you for loving me. Thank you for taking care of me. Thank you for providing for me. Thank you for taking me to church. Thank you for sending me to a Christian school despite the sacrifice. Thank you for teaching me God's Word and His plan of salvation. Thank you for taking us to Disneyland. Thank you for always being there. Thank you for listening and giving advice. Thank you for your support in everything I've done. Thank you for being great parents and thank you for becoming my friends as I've grown older.

I love you!

Not A New Years Resolution

but...
It's just time. Time for a lot of things.

Time to make my relationship with God a priority. Time to spend more time with my God. Time to get into His Word. Time to know Him more, not just know more about Him.

Time to quit eating poorly. Time to get my butt in gear and do something. Time to kick the Diet Coke habit (again). Time to fill up on water. Time to be healthy. Time to use the Wii Fit that Ryan got me for Christmas. Time to be active.

It's time.
