Preaching

Hello my readers,

Its been busy for me. Yet again, I found time to post. I've been studying the fear of the LORD. That is what my message tomorrow morning will be about. I've been doing a verse by verse study of Proverbs and I've been on Proverbs 1:7 for a while thinking and praying about it.

There is so much in that verse alone. The word fear in this verse means reverence and that means an act of respect. In my terms, I'm terrified of bees and when I come across a bee, I don't want to do anything to upset that bee or else it'll sting me. In short, I respect the bee so I don't upset it.

That is how we fear the LORD. We show Him respect in what we do before Him. Respect in prayer, singing, our behavior, worship, etc. We need to fear Him in all areas of our life. We fear(an act of respect) Him so we don't upset Him. He chastens us if we don't respect Him. The bee stings us if we don't respect it.

Anyways, I've been filling the pulpit for the last few weeks. My Pastor went to a preachers' conference in Quebec and he also went home to visit his mom and also to visit his wife's dad. So I've been busy preparing messages.

Sandy is doing a lesson for Sunday School tomorrow morning. She is also going to a ministry called the arctic tern. Its a young offenders facility. A young g i r l s offenders facility to make it more exact in the afternoon. That should be good for her.

Well, back to studying for me.

Shane Gordon.

My Truck

Hey y'all!!!

Well, I'm in the process right now of getting a 2009 GMC Sierra 4 door extended cab truck...that was a mouthful. Its black. Its practically brand new but it was on sale for $27,500. My dad will be going to pick it up for me. Its in Edmonton where Sandy and I had our honeymoon.

He is leaving Friday. I would go and get it myself but I was out a week of work being sick and can't really afford to be gone for another week. I would leave Friday myself too but it is a 3 day drive from Edmonton to here. So I'm going to work and my dad is going to pick it up for me. I'm saving probably $300 to $500 if my dad picks it up for me. I could have shipped it from Edmonton to Whitehorse but that would have cost $1,500 to ship.

My dad's plane ticket cost me $741 and I'm giving him $500 for gas. So around $1,200 and cheaper to ship it.

Well, not much else news...I've been sick for a week and now I'm back to work today. I missed it cause my job is fun.

Well, I should go.

One Month

Hello peoples!!!

Well, I am at my parents house doing laundry and checking email and stuff. Just in case you didn't notice, its been a month since Sandy and I got married. Time has flown by. Its like we've waited so long to get married and now its exactly one month from our wedding day.

We've gotten a lot done since then. We have gotten the ball rolling on her permanent residency. Just a bit of advice for people who want to travel up here: Don't travel through Toronto. Its a waste of time and they won't help you or you won't go through customs quickly. I'd travel from Philly to Minneapolis, the Twin Cities and then fly to Edmonton, Alberta Canada from there.

Well, not much else to say.

For His purpose,

Shane Gordon.

I like to visit that place a lot. I practically live there sometimes. You should see all of the passes that have been signed to go there. Most likely my name has showed up the most on the passes to Wal-Mart.
