Some Day...

I've been working 60-70 hours a week the last couple of years...and we still don't have anything to show for it. In China, I was doing my work, plus studying the stock market. In August, we moved back to the US and I delivered pizzas plus studied the market. From January until April, I worked 7 nights a week, and did my stock research. Now, I'm building a business as a financial adviser/life and health insurance agent, while at the same time delivering pizzas 30 hours a week, plus trying to keep up with my stock market homework. After all of that, if you look at our savings account...it just keeps getting slimmer and slimmer.

Some day, I won't have to tell my wife and son that we don't have enough money to do things they want to do. Some day, my wife will drive a car that doesn't have a shattered windshield...some day, I will be able to roll up my windows and turn on the air conditioning in my car...because it will work...Some day, we will be able to give lots of money towards reaching the unreached...some day.

My favorite book says, "He who tills his land will have plenty of food."

I believe.

Back in Action

I had the day off and checked about 14 things off of my list. Number 15 is to get my blog going again. I haven't been able to blog on our old blog site, ever since our hard drive crashed in February or March. Now, Mac is changing things and it won't be possible for us to keep that blog going, so I'm starting fresh here.

I'll lay the general purpose of this blog again - this is a place for me to summarize my week, and have a place to share the my thoughts on the week. It helps me to try to bring things together and look for what our Creator has taught me for the week. And, for whatever reason, a lot of you ended up reading what I was writing. Hopefully it helped you sometimes, and your comments definitely helped me sometimes.

John and Tim (the guys who taught me about blogging) said that a good blog is short and sweet...I struggle with that sometimes.

Since my last blog post (in the old location), I have quit the cookie factory, become licensed to sell life and health insurance, and continued delivering pizzas, until I get the insurance business going again. Life has for the most part been overwhelming the last 10 months. I can't believe we have been back in the US for 10 months. I just keep trying to cling to Him through the change and transition, and we continue to try to survive financially. So far so good - our Creator is faithful to provide for those who look to Him for provision.
