Game Day!

The Chiefs play tonight on Thursday Night Football. At this point, I want them to lose the rest of their games so they can get a high draft pick and get a good QB. Anyway, I will still be cheering for them to win. So many conflicting feelings.....

We have had some really great meetings about Oasis Miami Church recently. Church planting is hard and takes a lot of effort. I think we are moving in the direction that will benefit the church best. We are making some connections and growing our online audience. We are also going to scout a new location soon as the church moves closer to Miami proper.

I have a meeting tonight with the Oasis Granger teaching staff to make our teaching calendar for the  next year. I am super excited to get home and be plugged in with everyone again. I miss everyone very much. So does Brit.

Thought for the Day
There was a terrible story on the local news the other day. A man some how lost control of his car (he is thought to have been under the influence and didn't have a valid driver's license) and hit a bus stop waiting area. He killed one of the people and injured others.

They interviewed a family member of the person who died and they had this to say, "It was God's will for my brother to die and it will be God's will for the person who caused it to be brought to justice."

I understand wanting to find meaning in all of this and a purpose. But the statement made is one many people make in many situations and it is ridiculous.

THINK ABOUT IT!

If it is God's will that this happened, then the driver is not actually at fault, GOD IS! Why should the person be punished for his mistakes? But the truth is God didn't cause this person to make mistakes. So It was not God's will.

We have to stop saying that everything is God's will.
