Honoring My Wife for a Job Well Done

While I’d like to take some credit for the character and development of our two year old daughter, I know the lion’s share of the credit goes to my wife, Heather. She spends 10 hours  a day with her that I miss out on, and during those hours has shaped our baby girl’s heart with every word, response, touch, and smile. Katie’s development is no accident, and I’m taking a moment to honor the one responsible.

Here’s what I know:

Happy-er Tuesday

We’re alive and well at the Dessinger house. After a four day epic no-sleepfest, our daughter is feeling “somewhat” better. Of course, as I write that, I hear her having a meltdown in the kitchen.

The point is, at least she’s sleeping somewhat at night and during her naptime. Here’s hoping she continues improving until she’s back to full strength.

It’s been a whirlwind of activity and sleep deprivation these past few days. I took the day off from work on Monday because I’d barely slept and was desperate to catch up. By the time Monday evening rolled around, it was easy to want to stay home and sleep. But Monday nights I meet up with a handful of guys from church and hang. I chose to go because we normally call or email in advance if we’re not going to make it.

I was reading through a prophetic word I’d received back in 1997, and something stood out that I’d never really put much thought to before. Here’s what was said:

…. There are many people even now trying to lead you down destructive paths. But I’m saying to you tonight: pray for them. Speak My Word into their lives. And if they don’t turn to My way, dust the feet. Shake off the dust and move on. Shake off the dust and move on.

Welcome to the GoogleNetz

Category : the Web

A simple tweet this morning by Lee Odden caught me by surprise. He overheard a nine year-old say, “But Google IS the Internet!” And this unnamed child was right. Which brought me to an inevitable conclusion: Since Google IS the Internet, it therefore deserves more play in the name. From this moment on, we will refer to it as the GoogleNet, or for you swanky folks, the GoogleNetz or InterGooglez (also acceptable is the World Wide Googlez).

So there you have it. Long live the GoogleNetz / InterGoogleez.
