2nd Update On Fire

The clean up has begun on Shannon's parents house. They have removed all the furniture from the bedroom and all the stuff in the storage closet beside the room. In that storage closet was some very precious memories of Shannon's. All her and her brothers baby pictures were in there. She was afraid they had been destroyed but they were in great condition. Nothing had touched them at all. A blessing from God.

They have removed all the wet burnt insulation that has fallen from the ceiling off the floor and they are trying to get things ready to start the remodeling. The bad part of it all is, the whole entire roof will have to be removed and rebuilt. All the framing on that side of the house is burnt so therefore the whole roof has to be gone. And this is not a small house either so it's going to be a big ordeal. Her parents will have to be out of their house for at least 6 months. They will probably move into an apartment until then. You can tell they already feel displaced and feel that they have no place to go. I feel for them deeply.

I don't know what it would be like to drive 10 hours and the whole time your driving your house is on fire and you can do nothing at all. Except rely on a hillbilly from West Virginia (ME) to give you updates on a cell phone. That would be frightening enough. But everyone said they were proud of me and the way I handled the situation. I wasn't quite sure if i could, but God gave me strength from above and good people there with me to handle the situation. I ask that you continue to pray for their dilemma and that everything going on will not weigh them down with worries and stress. Thanks

Update on Fire

Well they all made it back safely from Florida. They arrived about 6 pm and I got the kids and they started hauling things like clothes and some other stuff out. So they are exhausted. There is a crew coming from college church tomorrow to start moving things out. Almost everything in the house has to be moved out.

The water damage is worse than it was when I left so it's just going to be a big ordeal. They just need some prayers to get through this mess. I'll keep updating. Thanks, Clint

My In Laws House Caught On Fire Today, Please Pray

Today was to be the happy return of my wife and children and her family, but it has become something else. We had our first rain in two months and it was some of the worst lightning I have seen in a long time. As I was driving to work this morning at 7. It was storming a monsoon. Lightning was lighting up the inside of my truck, I thought I was going to be shocked. I got to work and about 8:30. I got a call from Shannon and she was crying and that just made my knees buckle. All I could think was that they had a wreck and something had happened to the kids. She said my moms house is on fire, panic mode hit me. I ran out of the store and hopped in my truck and headed to her house. When I got in the neighborhood I didn't see any smoke so I thought it 's just a false alarm. WRONG!

I turned onto their street and there were three fire trucks and an ambulance there. I ran up to the chief and he said lightning had struck the back of the house and caught the attic on fire. I just didn't know what to think or do. It's pouring down rain I'm soaked, but I didn't care. Shannon was on the phone trying to get details out of me. I had none! The picture above is where the lightning struck. it's at least 10 ft long in length and they said the bolt hit the bottom floor. I was just in utter disarray! They were asking me questions and I had no memory. I think they asked me my last name and I had to think for a minute.

But I am thankful to all the neighbors for being there for me because I was just in awe. My preacher was there with me the whole time and held the umbrella over me and was just a great help. I just want to thank Jeff Morgan, Noel Whitlock, Scott Finley, Paul Morgan and anybody else that was there from college church. You guys are God's finest examples of goodness. I guess there was a reason I didn't go to Florida. While this was happening they were all on their way home from Destin.

This is the room below the attic, they had to take out the whole ceiling to get to the fire and contain it. This room and the attic above is a total loss. Water damage was not to the extent I thought it would be, considering the flames were shooting out the roof. I just asked that you all pray my in-laws Bob & Martha Tindell they will need it, they should be home within the next hour. It's going to be rough.
Words cannot express how appreciative I am of the bravery of the Searcy fire dept. They did their job and did it well. I went down the line and shook all their hands and told them how thankful I was for there great effort. It's a duty not just a job. I thought the whole time as they were going in there with their masks and tanks on and the burnt insulation covering them. I thought of 911. How brave they all are and we should be grateful to there service. May God bless all firefighters in the world and how under appreciated they are.

The Believer's Prayer. Baptisms Replacement?

What has happened to Baptism? Somehow it is being ignored as a way of being saved. I was watching a TV evangelist the other night and he said "Pray these few words which we call the Believers prayer, and you have been saved from all your sins and have been saved by God's grace." What? I don't think that is what my Bible says. It seems these new churches that are popping up everywhere have passed on baptism. Especially these mega congregations they all say the same thing also, just say a prayer and that's it. Maybe they are just being lazy with all the gazillions they are making off these desperate believers and feel it's to much work to baptize the thousands in their congregations. Talk about leading the sheep in the wrong direction!

I remember having a discussion with one of my former bosses one time about church and we got to talking about baptism. His church doesn't do it. I asked why, his answer didn't make sense to me at all, but mine did make sense to him. I said Jesus was baptized, do you all think your are better than Jesus? Do you feel like it's not important? He asked why I was baptized.
1) To show my obedience to God's will
2) To be "SAVED"
3) Because Jesus did it. Aren't we supposed to live like him and imitate Him?

He said that is a good point and we left it at that. He was my boss and I didn't want to get into a battle and lose my job. But it bothers me when churches out there don't do what the Bible says and change it to their own liking. Baptism is the most important thing to do. If you aren't immersed in the waters of Christ then I don't consider people to be a Christian. Do you?

So many of these new Bible based churches are leading many in the wrong direction, it's scary to our youth who are being sucked into this kind of teaching. Another thing that bothers me is churches that don't take the Lord's supper every week. Me personally I need it. I need to think about my rough week and the stupid things I have done or said and remember my Lord who was brutally beaten, spat upon and nailed to a tree for my sins. I know once a month wouldn't do it for me, of course working at Lowe's I have to work a lot of Sunday mornings and it's killing me. Lowe's considers it more important to make money than to allow it's employees to go to church. Which is wrong! That's another blog!

Christians are just like children we need repetition, we need to do Christian things (like the Lord's supper ) to keep us going. Baptism needs to be taught to our kids as the most important thing to being a Christian. You need a mouth to eat, and you need baptism to become and be considered a Christian.

Matthew 3: 13 - 17 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. But John tried to deter him, by saying " I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?" Jesus replied, " Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness." Then John contested.
As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the spirit descending like a dove and lighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, "This is my son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."

Mark 16:16 Whoever believes in me and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. - Jesus

A Week To Myself

Yes I am here in Searcy by myself, and I am enjoying the quiet. The kids and Shannon went to Florida with her parents and brother last Saturday. I am extremely jealous! While I am eating at home every day to save money, they are eating crab legs and all kinds of seafood.

So I took the day and went to Little Rock and sincerely enjoyed myself. I needed it very badly. I have not been out of white county in 4 months, and I took the day off and spent money and felt good doing it. I think I might go to Conway tomorrow and look around and maybe spend some more money. Well maybe not! But it was good to be alone and spend the day exploring Little Rock. Shannon and I don't get much time away from the kids. She had her women's retreat a couple of weeks ago and I had my Clint retreat today. But next year I will have two weeks of vacation so I won't be left out of the Florida vacation.

But this little day out reminds me of Jesus. He was constantly around people, he was like a movie star among the people. Except He had miraculous powers of healing, and people were wanting to be healed. But even Jesus took time to go away alone and take a timeout.

In Luke 6:12 it says, "One of those days Jesus went out to a mountainside to pray, and spent the night praying to God."

I went shopping and Jesus spent the night praying, I did pray a couple of times while I was on the way. But His break from all the crowds was to go to His father and regain his spirit. Mine was to get out and see a change of scenery. However we spend our time alone, we all regain our strength and get our sanity back from the every day grind. I was thankful to my God for allowing me time to get away, and regain some normal in my life.

We all need time to ourselves, how you spend it is your business, that's why it's your time and nobody else's. It's not being selfish it's just slowing down your engine and coasting downhill for a day. Take time to be alone by yourself and spend it with the Lord and spend it with yourself. We all need to take a timeout sometime.

Brayden Playing B-Ball With A Superbowl Champion

It's not every day that you can say your son played basketball with a superbowl champ. Brayden attended Harding's basketball camp this week and was not wanting to go at all. Every morning it was like dragging a dog to the vet. He just didn't want to go, but once he got there he enjoyed it alot. I think I did too, I like to sit there and watch him play plus, there was an NFL player there too.

Tank Daniels of the New York Giants had his kids in the B-ball camp this week. I never really heard of him before. He played for Harding and then went on to play for the Eagles and then moved to the Giants. So it was kind of neat to say you saw a Superbowl Champion and then your son runs up to you and says "I was on Tanks team." So I think it made his day to be on Tanks team. Neither of us has asked for an autograph yet, if someone else would ask him for one then I would. But I'm not going to bother him for one. He really seemed like a nice guy and played around with the kids a lot. I think I will become a "tank fan", but not a Giant fan.

I could never leave "The Steeler Nation"!!!!!!!! In the picture above that is Tank holding up his hands.

4 Fathers: Two Grandfathers, One Paternal And One Heavenly

I really have a lot to be thankful when it comes to great examples of fathers. I can't be any luckier than to have the father that I do. When other father's are out hanging out with their buddies playing golf or heading to the bars or  the horse track. Mine was taking care of his family and loving his wife. My Dad took care of his family better than any other I know of. He traveled almost 200 plus miles a day to a small town in Ohio to go to work to feed his family and pay two tuition's to 2 private Christian schools.

When the weather was bad he and his co-worker were traveling the snow covered roads of interstate 70 to get to work. I thought traveling to Little Rock was bad for five years, there is no way I could've traveled that far for almost 20 + years. But he did, and I am grateful for it.

I try be just like him with his care free world of no worries, and I do until it comes to finances and then I don't even come close. I am thankful for my father and for his love of his family and Christian faith to always stay in the game no matter how far life pull can pull you down. He would be a great coach for the Pittsburgh Pirates. Even though they have had 15 years of losing my dad would see some way of coming back to win. Thanks Dad for your example of life and for being "The worlds #1 DAD."

I had two grandfathers that were great examples of humbleness. One I was very close with and the other I knew well. I don't mention him much because I just never saw him that much, but I see his example through my own Dad. William Singer was his name I knew him as "Papap." I wish I could say alot about him but I didn't know much about him. We would visit him at least once a week and he would give me and Paula a jar of coins he had collected for us and he would ask us what we had been doing and he and Dad would talk about different stuff.

I remember the smell of the house to this very day. I remember almost being attacked by the rowdy German shepherd next door. I would be half way up my dad's back from fright. I remember going up the crooked and cracked steps on the side of the house.

We would walk in the back door and there Papap would be sitting there waiting to see us. He was a quiet man and  always sat in his favorite chair watching his TV. I sit here wishing I knew him better, but I was young and not much for conversations then. But my memories will always linger as I remember my Dad going up almost every night to fix his meals as he was growing older and becoming sick. My example of him is, even though the world was still evolving around him it wouldn't have any change on him. He would remain a humble man and love and appreciate  his son very much. Thank you Papap for your love and example in life.

The other grandfather is my "Papaw." I've mentioned him in past blogs and how grateful I am still to this day for his example. I was close to him and his happiness still remains in my life today. I think of him every Christmas that comes around. When I watch a baseball game it reminds me of him. When I look at his smoked set of pipes on my bathroom counter I think of him. His strength keeps me strong in everything I do.

I remember going to work with him when I was little and sitting there as he would fix a piece of furniture for Sears. I remember him coming to my baseball games when I was little and cheering me on. Those were just good times. I remember the time when he was older and couldn't drive very well and him and I and his dog Astro went to go shopping at Elm Grove shopping center. We were going down the little hill to the shopping center and he was going off the road and almost put us over the hill. And I yelled, "Papaw were going off the road." He just gripped the wheel tighter and got right back in the right lane. He said it would be OK. I don't even remember what we were going there for, but it was eventful.

But I am grateful for his example of love and his great ability to teach me not to worry about anything. Just grab your toolbox and go to work. Keep on keeping on was his motto, and just let it roll off your back. He never said that but that is what he was trying to teach everyone around him. He enjoyed his kids and his grandchildren to the fullest and just loved life no matter what.

Thanks Papaw for your example and the great memories you gave us all in life. I only wish he could read this, maybe they have Internet in heaven, who knows!

Out of the the four father in my life, none can ever match our Heavenly Father. His love is abundant and always overflowing. Our cups overflow. We need nothing because of him. Through Him I have these memories in life, through Him I have the ability to live free from sin. With Him I will never be alone in life, even with my greatest sin I am always forgiven. I could be beaten, robbed and stripped of everything I own and he would find a way of bringing me through it.

He is love and the founder of love. He created me for a reason, to become something the world might not recognize. To serve those in need both spiritually and physically. He might not have created  me to be in the spotlight, but to maybe give somebody a good cheerful laugh or just to be a good example to someone who needs it.

He moves in a mysterious way to give us a new hope everyday we awake. We can't rely on the world to give us hope, but through Him we can always find the chance for greatness. We look blindly waiting for His answer and take off the blindfold and see He has already given us the answer or another angle to look at the situation at hand.

He is more than deserving of a father's day card. He deserves our full attention every moment of our lives. He deserves the love and praise of every person whoever walked upon this planet, but yet we give Him a couple of hours on Sunday and and hour on Wednesday and we think that is enough. It's not even enough time to fill a tiny glass jar.

He deserves so much more!!!!!!!!!!! I think more about my career and when I will land that dream job or when I will sell my next policy and when it will pay out. I think more about myself and how pitiful my life is, when He's given me and everybody a life greater than any king. When we pass in life where will we be? In a pit of fire or in the glorious hands of our creator? Our lives are our number one priority. We think about the next paycheck and wonder what HD television set we should buy. Instead of giving Him the praise, we give a baseball player on steroids more praise. A home run, a touchdown and a basket have become more important than our love for him.

Everyday should be Father's day for our God. I'm guilty of all this, my lack of faith has been very weak lately. Satan gets his hold on me with allowing me to worry about things and making me put my priorities first instead of our Lord's. I need to give Him the praise He deserves and give Him my problems so I can fulfill His destiny He has planned for me.

Thank you God for all that you are and more. Your example leaves me in AWE!

Just Blabbering Tonight!

I started a collection of something I never thought I would ever collect. It started when I was doing Aflac full time last summer. I would always grab a few business cards just for reference, but it ended up becoming something else to collect. So I am asking you readers if you have any personal b. cards of your own or would like to send me some through the mail. It would be great! The thing that is good about collecting .cards is that they are free, accept the little holders you buy at walmart for $6. But I have always been a fan of advertising and logos, I guess that is one reason I collect the little nascar diecast cars and Riddel mini football helmets. I have way to many collections. I just hope I don't become a "hoarder" and Shannon puts me on Oprah like that one lady. Which that was crazy!!!!!!!!!! But if anyone wants to send me a business card or two I would gladly send you something for your collection, as long as it is free! LOL!.... My address is : Clint Singer

I found our house on Google Earth the other night. It's funny now that I have seen an aerial view I'm thinking about knocking down the house and making it a baseball stadium. I didn't know I lived on a piece of land shaped like a diamond. If you don't know which house it is. Its the one in the middle.

Funny cartoon! Hillary will buy her way as V P!

Ah! What I would do for a piece of Di Carlo's extra cheese pizza! Mom and Dad are coming in July I know there will be some in the trunk. If she forgets, I will not let them in!
I hope everybody has a great father's day tomorrow. I have to work, so we celebrated at KJ's in Judsonia tonight. If anybody ever comes to Searcy for a Harding gig, you need to go to KJ"s. Their New York strip, grilled garlic shrimp and bake potato are the best. The BEST!!!!!

I plan on writing a father's day blog tomorrow. It will be titled: "4 Fathers: Two Grandfathers, One Paternal and one Heavenly." Have good Lord's day!

Moments In Time

Moments in time. These moments I have been trying to capture and remember, at least the special ones. I try to remember moments in time during my life. I try to always think about the very first moments of my children's life. I want those to always to be fresh in my memory always. I believe those are three out of four moments I always want to remember. My fourth is the day I was baptized. I always want to keep that fresh in my memory. But there are so many others I want to always remember. Look back on your life and think about those special moments. Think about how you felt when they occurred and how grateful you should be to God for allowing you to be there when they happened.

When I closed my eyes the other day in worship and listened to the singing I was grateful for it happening. It made me think about what the singing will be like in heaven. Can you even imagine? I try but I will never even come close. But God gives us a preview every Sunday when we all sing together.

The other night I was holding Cayden and just thought how fast he is growing, and how fast he is picking up words. He doesn't let us spend much time holding him anymore, but when I do, I cherish that moment.

Moments happen everyday and alot of them we let slide by and never think to capture them the way we wished. I remember all three births of our children and the magic that was present there. I think back to the waiting and the pain that Shannon endured and how she wanted them to come. When they did we all held our breath and waited for the first scream. What a moment in time.

We need to all slow down and capture the day that our Lord has blessed us with, and see the special moments He gives us to see His greatness. We want to see magic everyday and alot of times we end the day disappointed. But everyday there is Holy magic going on, we just don't see it the way he wants us to see it.

When I wake up in the morning I know who is up already just by the footsteps of each child. When I hear those footsteps and I know instantly who's they are, that is a magic moment of God. I cherish it everyday, and I am thankful.

I wonder what special moments in time God will allow me to capture tomorrow? As we labor through time let us cherish every moment he has planned for us so that we can use those moments to relive the past and smile for a long time.

Gas !

I thought this was funny because nobody really has complained about a gallon of milk costing $4 but we are all devastated by $4 gasoline. I should be complaining about the milk being the price that it is. I can consume a gallon of milk faster than my Tacoma can suck up a gallon of gasoline. I love milk! Good things the Saudis aren't in charge of producing milk, I would be mad. They couldn't produce enough for me.

The Singing Voice- Praising Our Creator With It.

Sunday morning as I sat in church I shut my eyes and just listened to the singing. I completely quit singing and just listened to the congregation sing as a whole. I didn't try to pick out different parts of the harmony, I just listened to the symphony of voices sing. If you have never done this you might need to give it a try. I couldn't believe how strong the sound was and how together it was. There was nothing to interrupt the beautiful voices that God created to give him praise, no drums, no guitars, no organs and no piano. Just a created group of sound as a whole. Our voices beautifully hand made by the conductor in heaven.

I've always heard the battle of no musical instruments in church just the "a capella" voices only. As we know the Bible doesn't come right out and say no instruments in worship, but if you close your eyes and just listen I believe that argument is solved. I've been in churches that have used musical instruments in worship and it just interferes with the singing. Nobody really seems like they know what part to sing so they all just sing the main melody. Which to me that just doesn't seem very special, the organ just leads this boring monotone song.

But everybody has their own preference of the way they want to sing in church, and again I'm not judging or sending anybody to hell.

I've closed my eyes many times in church and just listened. For some reason it hit me Sunday morning as I listened to the words and heard the marvelous sound of the created singing voice of our Holy God. It just made me think how wonderful He is to give us such a great gift and talent to sing His praises. Thank you God for this moment in time.

My Savior Lives

"My Savior loves, my Savior lives, my Savior's always there for me, my God he was, my God he is, my God He's always going to be." This is a song by an artist Aaron Shust.

With all the things going on in this world, there is one truth, our Savior lives. There are times when we feel things are just going down hill and there is no answer. We feel alone and that it is all up to us to handle it. We feel like David going against Goliath and there is no chance of defeating the giant mess in front of us. Our anger in us takes over and we let it out, and things become worse or we hurt those we love by the way we acted or by what we said.

There are times I feel like telling others around me the truth and it's probably the same for those around me. I've become better with handling things in my life by taking it to God. I ask Him to settle me down and allow me to give it to Him.

I used to have a huge problem with road rage when I used to drive to Little Rock for work. When somebody would creep up on me and tail me at the speed of 75 mph it would set me off. They would drive by me and give me the finger. I would explode and go after them. So many people have told me to never go after anybody they might have a gun in the car. That took a long time to sink in my head, but I finally took the matter to God and I left the rat race and found employment in Searcy. I learned patience and it payed off health wise. It was my giant standing in front of me. Handling patience and allowing it to become my new outlook on life really has helped me.

We talked about Patience today in class and I still haven't mastered it, but I am getting there. I have found great examples of patience in both my grandfathers and my Dad. I have never seen my Dad get rattled about anything. Just one time when he was buying a new washer and dryer and they called him to come pick it up. So he drove to the mall and when he arrived there it was the wrong ones. That is the only time I have seen him upset. He can naturally move the giant in front or the giant just got bored and got tired of waiting on him to get angry and left. Which is probably what happened, my Dad is too laid back.

Whatever matter that feels to big for us we need to know that we have an answer for that problem in a Savior that lives. The news can feed all the negative junk they want, but we have a Savior that lives, a Savior that loves and a Savior that is always there for us.

James 4:10 " Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up."

Mama is Gone For The Weekend

Today is a better day and Shannon has flown the coop for the weekend. You know what that means? Daddy is in charge. The women in our Bible class decided to have their girls weekend out this week. So they all headed to Hot Springs for shopping and whatever else they can get into.

So I decided to take on the challenge and take three rowdy kids to eat dinner somewhere last night. It went well so I took them to BK today and get something to eat for lunch that too went well. So I was surprised!

Now the grandparents get them for the night while I go to work till 11. How exciting!!!!!!!! Not much on my mind to blog about today so I will call it quits for now and write some thing on Monday. Everybody go to Church tomorrow no skipping please.

A Bad Day!

I just had a bad day today. I was in the worst mood I had been in, in a long time. My mood was fine till a little minor financial problem with the bank. That will get me rattled in a flash. Then I quickly got over the matter and went to bed and thought nothing of it.

So I have been waiting on a policy I sold back in March to finally pay out. So I called my broker and they still had not heard anything back yet. I became fumed because I hate run arounds. So I asked them to give me another number to somebody that could help me, because i basically told my broker they weren't doing their job. That kind of stunned the woman on the phone when I said that. I finally got through to someone and they said the policy never went through, and they didn't know why. I just hung up the phone and called the lady who I sold it to and she said they decided to not take it. I was in the mood to start throwing things out the door. I was just mad!

I told Shannon that I don't do anything to harm anybody, I don't try to screw anyone over and yet I continue to struggle. When things go wrong or things don't go the way I think they should I start my usual rant. I blame it all on Searcy. Yes, I do that! It's stupid but I do. I'm ready to pack my bags and head to a different place, I know there is somewhere else, that has better jobs.

I'm one of those people who has to have the answer now, the results have to be in front of me. But God settled me down and I had to regain my thoughts. I know there is a reason for me being in this area but I still haven't found it yet. Until then I will move forward with a better attitude and know that something good will result. I am human, a confused one!

Church Signs

I love reading the signs in front of Church buildings. Here's a couple I saw locally in Searcy.

"The best vitamin for a Christian is B-1."

"If God calls, will He get a busy signal."

Read the signs in front of Church buildings it might help you if you are having a rough or a good day.

I want to say thank you to all my fellow readers and hope this blog helps you in every way. It's helped me a lot. Thanks , Clint

The Greatest Hockey Game Is Finally Over. Pens Win!!!!!!!!!

That was the best hockey I have seen in a long time. I started watching at the first period and went through the 3rd O.T. I have no nails left. If the Pens don't win the Stanley Cup we can't say they didn't have any heart. The Red Wings are tough, but weren't tough enough tonight. Their headed back to the Burgh for game 6. Go Pens!

God's Purpose For Us In Life.

I found this picture on Dennis Hennen's Facebook page. I'm sitting here just looking at it and just amazed at it. My garage window has baked plenty of these over the past five years we've been in this house. Every fall when we get the energy to clean our garage we wipe out alot of dragon fly carcasses. They just seem to get trapped there for some reason. They like to play jokes on me, yes they do have sense of humor.
One day I was out weed whacking around the front beds. We have natural stone stacking rocks to line our front beds and wasp like to build there nest in there. So I was in my zone and just tearing up the weeds around the rock and above my head I saw a swarm flying. I ran thinking I had hit a nest of wasp, I ran like a little girl. I looked like an idiot. Or the dragonflies made me look like one. I looked up above me and it was the shadows of them flying around me. I just felt stupid.
It is amazing to see one of these and think about God creating one. They must have some special reason for being created, I don't know what that is. Maybe they eat mosquito's or something. That should be our reasoning for life, to feel we were put here for some reason. That we all have a special something to do while we live here on this planet. A lot of people roam this Earth trying to figure it out and just some times give up and feel no purpose for being here. I just got done reading Joel Osteen's book. The whole book he is telling us to have confidence in ourselves and that God has a plan for all of us. His plan might not be being in the middle of the spotlight but being behind the scenes. Every good thing we do may be lifting up somebody else and we might not even know it. We weren't all meant to be a leader or a specialist in something. But God has made us for something good to do. We should always be willing to try some thing new and not let ourselves become stale. God wants us to move forward in life. If your job is making you idle then you should focus on becoming something else. We need to stick ourselves out there and enjoy life and never keep from becoming better in life.
I just read about a 95 year old lady who just wrote her first children's book. I'll be lucky to be able to hear by that age, but I am going to keep moving forward in life. What you are doing now might be your calling, good keep doing it. We just like the dragonfly have a purpose in life, it might be a small purpose but it just may be what your created for.
