Come on, smile a little……..

I think God has a really cool since of humor, look at most of us….. Really, I do believe that God wants us to smile, laugh, and enjoy the life He has given us. I am in Birmingham tonight getting
ready to teach a class at the Birmingham News, newspaper tomorrow, (which should be when you’re seeing this…). Just recently I’ve found myself smiling more, feeling more joy, and I think I know why, I’ve been praising Him more. I’ve come to a better understanding of just how blessed I am and how much I have to be thankful for. The more I count my blessings, the more I realize just how much He has done for me, and my family, and my friends. My dear brother Carl Turner,
shared a great story with me the other day, and it related to this very subject, His visit blessed me in a profound way. Thank you Father, for wonderful brothers and sisters in You.

I started the ministry, His Light a couple of years ago and everything has taken on a whole new meaning for me. I think that God wants us to be happy, joyful and experience His peace. Sometimes we have to endure some hardships as we learn valuable lessons that make us more suited to serve Him. Though I’ve experienced hard times, non have been beyond His ability to lift me back up.

I would imagine that some people may come to the blog and think, “this guys is crazy”, and they may be right, but it’s a good kind of crazy………..

Be blessed,

the pilgrim
