Im a middle class white male. I am married and have two kids. Being a husband and dad is my biggest devotion. I am a Christian. I am constantly trying to understand grace as I walk through life daily. I enjoy spending time with my family. While I own a motorcycle and was once an avid fisherman and hunter. I no longer take the time. Im a fulltime husband and dad. I have a fulltime job that I enjoy but it doesnt define me. I do enjoy guns and shooting.

Live life
Over the past few days and weeks our community has lost a lot of great men of whom I respect. While I dont put myself on their level it really has caused me to stop and think. How quickly our lives can change. How quickly things can go from smooth sailing to uncharted waters choppy water.I think its caused me to reflect less on how I will or could die and the after effects and more on how I want to live. Less on my relationships in death and and more on my relationships in life. I am confident in my salvation. I want to take better care of myself. I want to eat better. I want to learn to slow down and relax more. I want to smile and laugh and be more carefree. I want to care less about the things that dont matter and more on the things that do. Less about the actions of those that arent important and more on the actions toward those those that do. I want to focus less on the things I have no control of and more on the things I can. I want to read the lecture be reminded thats 98% of the piddly things I worry about arent important at all. I dont know just a lot on my mind this morning. Just because you are breathing doesnt mean you are living.
