My wife suggested that I would spend a few moments writing this afternoon when she and the boys are taking their naps. I like to write but I am often finding myself surfing the web for new furniture designs and homes I will never live in or build for that matter.........pity the fool who would buy anything that I constructed. It is not that I lack the desire to create anything and ideas abound but somehow it is not my job to cut pieces of wood or metal and make them line up in perfect 90 degree angles. I was not really going to talk about my inability to construct, but maybe it is relevant to what else is on my heart today.
I have really been struggling to see what God is wanting me to do with my life. At other times in my life it has been obvious but not so lately.
Yesterday could very easily have been my last day on earth as I and others were dodging semi trucks and cars on I-69, but somehow God spared me. I immediately knew that God was not done with this Dane. I remembered the last time I was in a car accident about 11 years ago; and God used that moment to stop me from continuing further down a road that was leading nowhere good. Back then I knew that God wanted me change the focus of my life and what I saw as LIFE.
To be here writing this is so awesome and somehow a humbling experience because there were people who did not come home to their families last night.
I think that maybe it is time to just take a close look at what I see as LIFE.

I'm super glad you're still with us, Lars. Just the other day I was day dreaming about being rich enough to afford to have you design all my furniture.
