Bachelor for a week.....

Well...it's been a looooooong day. As of this morning, I'm a single dad until 5:00 p.m. Friday. After a day of meetings it was time to get the kids where they needed to be. Baseball at 5:30, dance at 6:00, back to baseball until 7:30, back to dance at 7:45, a stop by McDonalds for healthy dinner, and home to baths, dishes, laundry and my weekly Law and Order fix.

Of course my wife would feel no sympathy for me. As a matter of fact, she left huge posters for me in various locations in the house to make sure I knew what had to be done each day that she is gone. I also found several reminders at work. The kids are great though. I think they feel sorry for me, so they go above and beyond to make sure I have help.

The weekend was great. Our services dealt with the subject of pornography, and its effects on our society. A very tough subject to tackle for a church, but one that must be addressed. It was a great weekend. Check out our church blog at springcreekchurch.org to see some of the comments and reactions. I am so excited about what is going on at Springcreek right now. There is a buzz every weekend that is felt when you come into the building. It's awesome!

Sunday night was another great night for our high school student ministry. Our small groups were good. My wife, Kelly, took the 11th grade girls and did great with them. She loved them, and they would really like for her to be there permanent leader. That was a real answer to prayer. The right person for those girls was right under my nose the whole time. Awesome!

You know...it's an incredible feeling when you know you are right where God wants you to be. I can look back over the last 15 years and see the ways that God has prepared me for this ministry position. I am, however, searching for answers on how to have three kids in three different places at the same time Thursday night. You've got 36 hours to send me help. I'm out.....
