A couple of things on my mind:

• Church Planting- Who is responsible for the vision needed? God or us? I think that it has to come from God and then leadership is needed to pas that on to others in a way that people will be motivated and follow what God is calling them to do. That is really a hard thing to do. I know of churches that have a hard time casting vision. Without it, we all lose sight of the goal-what God has called us to. This may seem like gibberish, sorry if this is scatterbrained.
  
• Matthew 23- Jesus lays into the pharisees. No apoligies at all. But He is hammering one thing- Humility. Don't be a hypocrite, live a true life. The first will be last and the last will be first. How are we making ourselves last so that we can serve others today?
• My family- Man I live Becky! Don't anyone tell her that she could have done soooo much better. Thank You God. And my children. There was a day that we didn't think that we would even have children, and then they are perfect!
  
• Chickens- that's right I am thinking about chicken! I am selling chicken with Becky's uncle in Ridge Spring tomorrow and thurs. it awful good, we will be a t Cones meats, $7 for a half.
