Currently Listening MMHMM By Relient K The One I'm Waiting For see related

hmm...right at a month.  that's pretty good for me.  So I just got back from my first business trip with Bell.  Poor me, I had to go all the way to Ft. Lauderdale for 10 whole days!  Terrible!  Seriously though, it was a whole lot of fun and a great experience.  I'm just glad i got the opportunity to go.  I needed a break from my regular job, which sufficed to say, is rather boring at times.  And just when i was starting to hit a slump, i get assigned to set up a frickin helicopter for an army tradeshow!  Way to go God!  Man, He never ceases to amaze me. 

Speaking of which, i went to a Chris Tomlin concert while in Florida and heard a guy named Louie Giglio speak.  Since it was the "Indescribable Tour", he illustrated the greatness and majesty of God using astronomy.  It is breathtaking to think that our Lord was creative enough to think up all this stuff.  Check out some of the pics below and I dare you to try and tell me that they just "happened" and were not divinely designed out of nothing by my God.

Sombrero Galaxy (28 million light years from Earth, 50000 LY across)

M51 Whirlpool Galaxy and Companion Galaxy (23 million LY from Earth, 65000 LY across)

Earth, as viewed from 3.7 Billion miles away.

To go even further, each galaxy contains billions upon billions of stars, and there are billions and billions of galaxies!  And God knows every single one!  But even further still, past all the vast beauty of the heavens and their infinite expanse, God still chose to love us and to send his son for us.  Wow...I really am at a loss for words whenever I keep thinking about that...it completely amazes me. 

OK, subject change in 3...2...1...now!  Here are some pics from my FL trip.  I'll probably post more of them on FB later, but here are some for starters.

 My Choppah!

  definitely wasnt ready for that one...

  new friends from FBC ft. lauderdale.

  Ang and Andrea...two Oklahoma girls living it up on the beach!  They've definitely added to my appreciation for our "neighbor from the north". 

Ok that was a ridiculously long post...but it did have a lot of pictures for those of you who prefer that type of reading...
