21st Century Technology

It's amazing how new technology changes about every thirty seconds. One minute and I-pod or I-Phone comes out, the next minute, it's something else. I finally joined the 21st century with a purchase of a cell phone over the weekend, and I'm still trying to feel my way through this so please ease up off of the caveman jokes when it comes to embracing new technology for a while, O.k. I'm liking the cell phone, now if I can just get this text messaging thing figured out. peace out!

My thoughts about Louie Welch

Louie Welch, or Louie, Louie as I called him sometimes, was a former mayor of Houston, TX from 1963-1974. He passed away on 1/27/08 after battling lung cancer at the young age of 89. My memories of Louie Welch were those of playing around and having him "beat me up"(not literally of course, but you get the picture). I'm going to miss that, plus I'm also going to miss the fact that he cared about those who were less fortunate than others. Heaven gained a new "elected official". Peace out.

Mentorship

Hey there. I did not know what it is to be a mentor, but I had a situation come up in my lap. I am mentoring a student in 5th grade. This student is in the Cy-Fair School district in northwest Houston. I'm not only helping her out, but I'm beginning to bond with her like a big brother. January is National Mentoring Month and if you need more info on how to be a mentor just Google the word mentor. Peace.

Humble Pie(The Good Kind)

Hello there. I never knew that humble pie can be a good thing(sorry about the Martha Stewart reference). Yesterday, Jan. 13th, was a prime example of that. During our morning worship assembly at Bammel Church of Christ, our connecting minister, Michael Montalvo, mentioned my six-year-old niece, Mary. I actually turned red blushing(for those of you that were there, you couldn't see it, but it happened). I was floored to say the least, but someone in my connection group mentioned that God is planting seeds for even the littlest of those who love Him. I'm amazed at how God does what he does. I don't view myself as anyone better than anyone else. i just do my thing, and the rest is history. I'm beginning to like the blushing part, even if you can't see it. Peace.
