Everyday Heroes

I was thinking about this after watching a rerun of The Cosby Show... what ever happened to sitcoms that had Fathers that were of integrity, good influence and honorable.

I can't think of any male figures on TV that meet up to that standard. Then I thought about everyday heros of today. Who are they?

I know lots of men I would consider everyday heroes....my father-in-law, all HCC pastors, people who suffer persecution for the message of Christ, stay at home mothers, single mothers, ..... I know several but right at the top of the list is my husband..... I ADORE my husband.

He is a Godly man of such honor and character.

When I talk to the young girls at church about dating and what kind of characteristics to look for in a godly man.. I always encourage them to be open to who the Lord brings for them. But, if they do not have a dad or male figure to look up to; that Pastor Scott is the best standard to measure their potentials by...

He has actually been able to stand in the gap for many of the young ladies.

I could gush on and on but, I wont lest you vomit :)

My point is.....Scott is my #1 everyday hero!

We were hanging out saturday afternoon and I snuck this pic while while he wasnt looking and i think its pretty symbolic of why he is of such good leader:

He seeks the Lord always and loves God 1st!

Have a wonderfully blessed day, love on your everyday hero today (whoever he/she is)

sooo confused..........Did I sleep through November?

Scott and I decided to go out to a certain home supply store who's name I will not say, lets just call it "M-owes" on Nov 1st and I could not believe what I saw.....

Can you believe this? Its the first day of November! I did such a good job ignoring the Christmas ornaments for sale in August at a store I wont name lets just call  it "P-obby W-obby" but, when I saw this I thought "did I sleep through November or what?????"

Dont get me wrong, I absolutely love the Christmas season. I just find it so sad that we completely skip the month of November, once Halloween is over you can not escape Christmas products being sold everywhere and the start of Christmas music on the 2nd week of November. Maybe this is why Christmas is so stressful for so many families. 

What happen to the month of giving thanks! Are we that "me-centered" as a society that we skip of the GIVING and go straight to the GETTING.....

Can we stop and take some time for Giving-thanks. Not only on a designated day but year round.

Im sooo confused, please tell me I did not sleep though November....................

A friend sent me this cartoon and thought it was appropriate for this blog :)

Have a wonderfully blessed NOVEMBER day,

-missa
