So.....

I didn't realize people read this until someone asked when I would be posting another blog, so maybe I will do this more often. Make myself more of an open book.
So last week I was in Vegas for a week, and if you have never been there, its a crazy place. This was my fifth trip, and I guess the most relaxed and fun. For those that don't know what I do (besides being worship leader at Riverbend) I work for a wholesale company. We sell the merchandise you see on TV. Call now for 19.95, but wait there's more!! Yeah that stuff.
So twice a year there is a variety trade show in Vegas that is huge. It's held in the Sands convention center, and I can't even explain how many booths are there. So we have a booth where we show the merchandise we have that is hot right now. So that's why I go to Vegas.
While I was there, I saw and talked to Wayne Brady ( who's line is it anyway, and don't forget the lyrics.) He was a cool guy, but was shorter and skinnier than I thought he would be.
I also saw Lil'John. How weird is that? haha. That was at the Planet Hollywood. It was also beautiful weather instead of the 100-103 degree weather I get to see when I go back in August.
So that was my trip.
This week has mostly been a chance to get back in the swing of things. It's Friday and tonight I have a softball game and then tomorrow I may be venturing to Orlando for Islands of Adventure. It's nice when you have passes. However, part of me is wanting to just relax and do nothing. Haha.
Right now I am reading the book of Acts, and also the book by John Piper "Seeing and Savoring Jesus Christ." Basically it's a book giving a more in depth and intimate picture of Jesus Christ and what He did and continues to do. It's very good and would recommend it to anyone. I would even say pass it on to your lost friends. Yes I said lost friends. We can not be so self-centered that we are not permeating the world around us with the love of Christ. We were once alienated from God, and yet reconciled through His Son. Share this with those around you!! Do not be afraid, God has not given us a spirit of fear.
I hope to write more in this blog so stay tuned. Also, for my last blog where I wrote about me being single, please know I am trusting in the Lord more everyday, and can honestly say I do not believe I am called to be single. I do care for someone very much and would do anything to keep her in my life for the rest of it. But the Lord knows my heart and who it is....we will leave it at that.
Have a great weekend everyone. Be safe. Love one another and seek Christ.
Peace, love and hair grease,
Heyward
