Why did you decide no law enforcement??? Just curious because the same thing happened to me (always wanted to be a deputy, then the dream kinda slipped away)

well to be honest I firmly believe I didn't decide, but God pushed me towards what he always wanted for me. I have a very stubborn streak at times when it comes to giving God control in my life, I had to go through this whole ordeal of being given a job and doors opening in other areas of law enforcement that I could have moved on to, but I could not stand the work or the people or how it made me feel. And it took me a few years to finally realize that dream was never what God wanted for me, but only what he allowed me to do so that I would find what he really wanted for me. Sounds crazy I know, but that is exactly what happened. And I will tell you this, it makes this journey and doing what I love that much sweeter now!!!!!

right on


and I just Tebowed...

Thank you sir, but in all honestly I owe the bow to my Father God. He is always good, even when I am not! And thats alot... Lol..

I have always told my kids that thank God gives us what we get based on his grace and love and not based on what we deserve. It's a good thing because I wouldn't deserve much!
