Well here I am in our new home. God has been so good. He has blessed us in providing not only for the big things but the little things that we sometimes forget about. God continues to reveal to me that He is the One in control and let me tell you I am glad that He is.
I am not going to sugar coat the fact that this is a time of adjustment on the lives of our family. We are getting used to living in Florida. Let me tell you I had forgotten how humid it was.
I am having to get used to being closer to family. This is a good thing but when you have not been around family for a couple of years it is weird. I find myself thinking more about the importance of family and relationships. As my wife says she has turned me into a family man. She has and I believe God has orchestrated all this.
God continues to move as He always does. Well I have to go. A lot of errands to run as we begin to settle down for a bit.

A New Chapter
Well here is my first blog post for the new chapter in my families' life. So a new chapter needs a new blog. I wasn't very good at blogging anyway. Maybe I will be better this time around, who knows.
First off let me say that God is amazing. He has moved us across the country. I praise Him that we are closer to family and friends at least for a bit as we discover what our next role will be in His Kingdom.
Let me also say that there are a lot of different things going through my head. That is why I titled this blog "A Random Mind." There are so many things that are going through my head and things that I ponder and in all of it trying to keep God at the forefront of all the thoughts. He is the one who guides and directs.
I believe God has rescued me from the "business" of "church" to go on a journey of discovering what the Biblical body of Christ is. He has challenged me with 2 Timothy 3:16 which says, "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,...(ESV)."
I believe in the inerrancy of Scripture. God wrote the Bible. What a gift from the creator of the universe. I am glad He didn't leave me hanging. This thought leads me to the basic concept of maybe we should just try to do what God has said, I know novel. Plus He has given us a helper in His Holy Spirit to accomplish this. To me this begs the question why do why try to live our lives and do "church" in our own power and do it really apart from the truth of the Bible. We fall back to man's ways. Ponder that for a bit. I will be writing more as I wrestle with this, wrestle with God, and wrestle with His Word.
