The. First. Post. Ever.

So today I decided that I should start doing something with my days since I am waiting for a TAG Release and orders to go to Fort Benning and be the Admin/Training NCO for the Warrior Training Center. This is the opportunity of a lifetime. I get to go Airborne and help soldiers-in-training who will be placed in combat situations one day. I cannot wait to be part of this important training experience. With that said, I have been waiting patiently (for the Army and on the Lord's timing) in Pell City, AL with the Baker family. God has shown my new things in my life since moving down south from Spokane, WA. He has shown me love, loyalty and how to trust Him for everything in my life. In fact, in Matthew 6:25-34 Jesus sums up one part of what God has been revealing to me everyday:

25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes?
26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life[a]?
28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin.
29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these.
30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?'
32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them.
33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Any questions? Feel free to comment and we can discuss this further...
