A new Era

So i'm sitting at a table with Tony and a new friend named John and we were discussing what happens to yourself and marriage after having a kid. I was telling Tony that it seemed like your entire world view shifts after having a kid. The old struggles seem pretty dim and unimportant. (they have been replaced with new ones but better ones) Your inner selfishness is humbled and your heart grows double if not triple its original size. Now don't get me wrong you don't become some super christian, super spiritual person but you realize very quickly why Jesus told his disciples if you want to enter the kingdom you must become like this child.

I think people over the past hundred years have gotten it wrong when they talk about this "inherent evil" that all people have even at birth with one of God's grandest lessons on how to live in His kingdom. Some people would call babies and small children completely selfish, unable to think or feel about anyone other than themselves. I on the the other hand believe that if we could get to a point where we trusted as a people to wait on every meal and depended on our Shepard to lie us down and pick us back up we would be more and more like the people Jesus commanded us to be. There is no plan B for Moses, if we don't feed him he's not going to go look for another source. We are all he has and that is what he is completely depending on even until death. Could you imagine a Christian so Trusting, Innocent, In love with their God that they would have no other plan. If you want to become the greatest in the kingdom you must become like one of these children. 

Moses is doing awesome, He had his first appointment today and he is healthy and gaining weight. I just want to thank everyone who has prayed for us, congratulated us and to the people who have given us gifts. I cannot speak more highly of Crossroads Community church and the people of SpringHill. Since we left the hospital they have brought us food and money to help us out. My wife said "a church that does something". I've got tomorrow off and my internet back at my house is back up so hopefully i'll be posting more often again. To God be the glory and peace be with you.
