THE BIG STORY  .  january 28  -  Easter april 8

You can feel it.  Behind everything that is, it pulses. Like the beat of your heart, fueling all the possibilities of your life.

It is there. It is waiting for you to discover it. To enter it. To embrace it & experience it as your own. Your truest life.

It is the dream of God, shared with us through the remarkable story told through the Bible. What is God’s dream? To have a people of His very own who choose to love & know Him freely, to follow Him fully & to reign with Him forever. It’s “The BIG Story” that gives meaning to all others, & you’re in it!

If you’ve ever wanted to know what the Bible was all about, you won’t want to miss a single chapter in this amazing 10-week series.

So I know this sounds weird but really I am not too anxious about the transplant. Really feel like God has given me a peace about it and know He has carried me through plenty of situations in my life which anchors in my faith even more – knowing He will carry me through this season as well. Honestly, I feel honored and priveleged to be able to help my brother out in this way. People keep telling me “maybe this is why God made you a twin” – which I wouldn’t doubt as well. I also know he would do the same for me. The great thing is with my kidney there is only a .2% chance of it ever failing him the rest of his life as opposed to only getting 10 yrs. out of another person’s kidney.

So what I am doing now to prepare for this season spiritually is to keep myself in tune with God and His Word – been feasting daily on His bread – it’s not cool how the devil tries to make the Bible look “unappetizing” at times….I really find that the more I read it the hungrier I get, and at the same time it realy satisfies me. Not like a Whopper when I’m starving but like a bottle of Gatorade after playing some rigourous games of basketball. Been praying a whole lot – am learning that my prayers sometime feel repetitive which unveils some parts of my prayer life where I don’t trust that God hears…and then he shuts me up and let’s me know He’s got it all. Been trying to put on the full armor of God daily – knowing full well the devil would want to attack me at my weakest moments – so spiritually I have been trying to pump some iron these days…good season of my life to reinstill some good habits you see. Many of our family and friends have been praying – I am overwhelmed by the amount of people who have been praying, it is a force I may never fully comprehend. thank you.

Physically, I have been watching my diet (little caffiene, lots of water, staying away from obviously wrong foods), been playing some basketball, running, and doing push ups. Need to make sure my heart is strong for the surgery. I also heard that eating more broccoli and vitamin C rich fruits will help my body get into recovery mode.

Monday we find out when the surgery date is – and I couldn’t end this post without saying how AWESOME our wives have been…truly a blessing.
