Somebody Up There Likes Me

Rambling random thoughts from a man in way over his head. My wife's too beautiful, my kids are too smart, and my job is far more tough than anything I could ever do. Somebody up there likes me.

Draining the swamp

Picture if you will, a woman in the middle of trying to get 17 girls to learn about following Christ, to commit the Bible to heart, and to teach them to sing praises.

That's my sweetheart... the pastor's wife extraordinaire.

She came home tonight frustrated because she couldn't see the difference she makes.

My job then, is to show her.

Friends, ministry is tough work. Many of the kids she loves are only with us an hour or two a week. They come to us from hellish households and go back there.

But they come. And my wife pours her heart into their lives.

I think I'll keep her. :)

Was there ever a doubt? Somebody up there likes me.
