Last night I watched the Today Shows’ one hour 2008 year in review special at it was quite good. A lot has happened in our country and in our world over the past year. A lot has happened to Melissa and I over the past year. We moved out of our friend’s spare bedroom into a row house in Covington, I changed jobs three times, we moved from Cincinnati to Georgia, we are expecting a baby! I wish that I could say that all of this was by my doing but it has only been by the faithfulness and protection of a loving God that I am sitting here today. God has provided for me and my family in ways that I cannot measure or count and I would be foolish to try. I have seen many prayers answered this year and it is my hope that many more are answered in the coming year. My church family at Velocity is on verge of something great and I trust that the words of  Zechariah 4: 6 would hold true, ” I am the LORD All-Powerful. So don’t depend on your own power or strength, but on my Spirit.”
