Greetings all, I thought it time to introduce myself to you all. Just some bit's and pieces for now. If you could not already tell by my photo, I am just some white guy from the city. I always dreamed as a child of living in the country. I guess that is why I have moved so many times. Always finding my self back in the city for one or more reasons. The first time I moved away, was when I joined the military. I sailed the seas for six years. It was an eye opener to see what state the world beyond my city was like. Sure I had been out of the states prior to this, but a resort is not like the sites beyond a gate. The last time I moved away, I hopped in my truck and I moved to beverly, hills that is, no really, I just wanted to say that once before I died, but actually I moved to Alaska. I drove for four straight days, and woke up in Anchorage. And all this had been done before I even read the Bible. In Alaska, I was fortunate enough to work with a man, who had read the Bible. We would discuss issues, Biblical and others, that effect our lives, over the course of a year. It was at this time, over ten years ago, and five cover to cover readings myself of the Bible, that I realized there was a purpose for me in this life. Even If I didn't know then what the purpose was, or that I even know today, I had decided to become baptized in a crystal clear blue lake in Alaska. I look back and remember this calling I felt to just get to Alaska, and I think I can say that it was, if nothing else, to meet this man, and his wonderful family, in order for a seed to be planted. What fond memories. I must move on as I am catching myself reminiscing. Now here I sit. A little sad, being back in the city of brotherly love, minus the love, once again, waiting patiently for a little bit of country, and the ROCK, and a roll. I'll take the roll with butter please! Triple PS's Sorry sorry sorry for posting many polls this week, and I will limit myself from now on. No King but CHRIST JESUS!!! |

That's a great testimony! Thanks for sharing. It's neat to hear how you heeded God's call even before you knew it was Him who was calling you! "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." John 14: 27

is it true about the saying, "The odds are good, but the goods are odd?" do they really say that in Anchorage ? Life is an adventure.

Greetings all, I have never heard it put that way, Independance, but I can make sense of what you have asked. It is true that men out number woman in Alaska. In the world, it is said that women out number men by a three to one ratio, but in Alaska that ratio is, I believe, ten to one, for the male. No King but CHRIST JESUS!!!

IM a chicken when it comes to that kind of solo adventure. Glad you were able to go and that you shared your story with us.
