God's Man | Not Me Monday 5th Edition

 
Last week was very interesting.  I had planned to skip my Not Me post this week, check the rules on McMama's Blog, when Momo posted her's I just had to.  So here are some things that I didn't do:
  • I certainly did not become a frenzied twitter and facebook posting machine during the Super Bowl.
  • I was definitely not rooting for Capitalism to win the game.  206M spent on commercials this year.
  • I did not laugh and get a dirty look from my beautiful bride while watching the Mr and Mrs Potato Head commercial.
  • I did not become enraged when I saw this magazine on the rack at Walmart.  I love seeing the President's on everything.  Really I do.
  • I did not lash out at my bride on Saturday and I did not feel so bad that I made two posts apologizing and talking about what I learned.  
  • My wife and I certainly didn't have a discussion about the above situation until the wee hours of the morning.
  • We also were not both late to work today as a result.
  • I did not laugh with my daughters spend an hour playing with a box of microwave popcorn.  We buy them tons of toys.
  • I am not sitting on a post that I think will alienate me from some of my blogging friends.  I am a fearless poster.
  • I definitely made it to my church's Big Game Party.  I didn't sit on the edge of my seat with my Dad while my daughters destroyed the basement around us.
  • We certainly didn't let them do that.  We made sure that they cleaned up after themselves.
  • And lastly.  I did not spend 4 HOURS at the MVA.  That place is a engine of efficiency.  They are also totally motivated by kindness in everything they do.
That's what I didn't do.  How about you.  Check out McMama's Blog for all your Not Me fun!  And my friend Momo Too

God's Man | Portrait of a Godly Man

Christian Women the world over have looked to Proverbs 31 as a model for Godly Women.   That has always left me with this question.   What is a Godly Man?   In the book of Job we find a man that God called blameless.   During his lament in chapter 29 Job paints a picture of a Godly Man.   It gives us things to focus on as we strive to be men of God.   A Godly Man needs God’s Provision     Job continued his discourse: "How I long for the months gone by, for the days when God watched over me, when his lamp shone upon my head and by his light I walked through darkness!   Oh, for the days when I was in my prime, when God's intimate friendship blessed my house, when the Almighty was still with me and my children were around me, when my path was drenched with cream and the rock poured out for me streams   of olive oil.   – Job 29 1:-6   Even though Job is in the middle of a bitter lament he knows that his entire life was built on the provision of God.   He know
