The good news is the a/c is going to be half the price because we found a friend of Jeff's dad who is going to do it.  The bad news is it has taken so long.  I am still in Melbourne. 
When I got back from Texas the vet bill on Brewer was over $200.00 and I just saw a worm in his poop.  Can only imagine how much that is going to cost!  This dog has already cost me way too much!  I won't post the amount, let's just say I could have taken a very nice vacation.   Lesson learned, don't get a dog. 
I think I am going to have to find a part time job!
Last night I started thinking about salvation.  In the past I used to think, invite them to church....the pastor will preach a convicting message and they will go forward.  While I do think this will work for some,  I know for a vast majority that it will not.  I think there are also some who will go forward and then never step foot back in church.  Why is this?  I can think of many different answers and reasons.  I try to think of the excuses I use and my friends and family use.
There is also a whole other group of people.  The ones who  practically live at church.  I know this is not true of all, but I have to say.....I never hear stories of these people bringing any one to Christ.  So what went wrong?  When did we get so comfortable?    I was so caught up in church, I forgot what God has called me to do.  I  left the job up to people I thought were more experienced and qualified!
Imagine if it was written on our tombstone how many people we lead to Christ or at your funeral a slide show of the pictures of these people were shown.  Being a Christian since 15, I should be ashamed.  The good news is today is a fresh start.  Instead of being known for all the great accomplishment I've done(which isn't much!).  I want to be known for the love I showed others in Christ.  I hope all this is making sense.  I tend to go off in my own little world that only I understand!
I have to tell you, I wake up everyday....knowing God has something special planned for me.  I just keep praying I don't miss out!
