What is it that has you trying to be the big man and carry the weight on your shoulders all by yourself? I know your doing it, because so am I; and if we are not careful, it will kill us!
So…why don’t we do just that guys? Why don’t we really focus on our family on the weekend? Why don’t we show a little romance to the wife and take her out on a date? Let’s start making plans and working for the weekend where we can…
I was invited to eat with a group of men tonight that will be speaking, attending or serving in some capacity with the “Why Me?” men’s conference in Thomaston, Georgia next Friday and Saturday. After one delicious low country boil, the men made their way down to the dock at the lake. As 14 decent sized men eased out onto this weathered dock we felt the shifts of age and the creep of time on the structure.
Today is a special day to me. If it was not for this day coming around some 59 years ago, I would not be here. Today is the 59th birthday of my daddy, Rusty Blackston.
This weekend there have been and will be many guys out there trying to get the grill going. Inevitably there will be those who can simply look at the grill and the flames leap to life and then there are those of us, who do everything according to the instructions and still do not get…
Many times we as men will let something go when we have a disagreement with someone. I think many times to myself, “Be a duck…be a duck…just let it roll off your back and move on”. Yet somewhere way back in one of our boxes (that’s another blog post) we bury a bone of that disagreement that we will dig up later.

They will start humming or making noises that will somehow find just the right wavelength to become the most irritating noise in the world.
One generation will declare Your works to the next
and will proclaim Your mighty acts.
Psalms 145:4 HCSB
This past Sunday I had the privilege of being able to step into the pulpit of my home church during the 11:00 service and deliver a message that God has laid upon my heart for a long time now. I was talking about “The Next Generation”. Those who will follow after us, are watching us and are trusting us to do what is right.
I had to break the sermon into two parts due to the length of the podcast. Part one is available and should be listened to first.

Today many people have mobile devices or laptop computers. Nearly all of these have a camera and microphone built in to the device. Using these items in the technology, Google has developed a program that will allow you to bring those distance places to you. Google Nose (beta)!
So when he attempted something and he did not see it doing any good, he quit. He did not see that the responsibility he was given was important and how it effected everything else that was being done at that time. This in turn made others who were performing there task in a responsible manner look down on him and his self-esteem plummeted.
Today I received the privilege to be a guest blogger on another site. I ask that you be so kind to head over to MeetPenny.com and check out the blog post on the Teach Them Diligently Men’s Breakfast. While you are doing that go ahead and look through her site and check out all that she…
