Madness! Who's got the Madness?

Well everyone, it's that time of the year again.  March Madness!  Where teams from across the country have played for this time of the year to play in the big dance.  Many fans across the nation are filling out brackets, making bets, listening to ESPN and their thoughts on which team has the best chance of winning the National Championship.  

Of course, I am definitely filling out a bracket this year.  Who wouldn't? Might as well and have some fun.  Go for the upsets! Yet, don't go crazy with just choosing upsets or you have no chance on doing the best on the bracket selection.  What do you think of the typical 12 seed upsetting the 5 seed this year?  Is it going to happen this year or not? Whoever you choose - have some fun!  Get some friends together and set up a bracket challenge and play for pride! (or money if you want)

"I want to go while swinging a club"

My mom called me last night with some sad news, my great Uncle passed away yesterday afternoon.  He lived in Pensacola, Florida on the A.C. Read Naval Air Base with his wife.  He played golf every single day with some of his friends down there.  I have actually had the privilege to play golf with him as well.  I went down with my parents to visit them three Spring Breaks ago.  My dad, Great Uncle Mel, and I went out and played a few rounds of golf when we were down there.  Let me tell you, that is a wonderful course.  Right on the ocean with planes flying and practicing above you.  It was a great sight.  And I will probably never forget the moments we had while we played together.

However, this is what I wanted to focus on.  When I was down there, my Great Uncle Mel told us, "Whenever it is my time to go, I want to either be swinging a golf club or go by my wife's side."  It was true for him, he went the way he wanted to go.  He passed away while going to play a round of golf.  

After hearing that, I am wondering what I want to be doing when I die.  I haven't thought of it too much but I know that I want to be doing what I love the most, by the one I love the most, as well as serving the one I love the most - Jesus.  

How would you prefer to go?  With who?  What you are doing last?

Think About It.

So I have applied to be my floors RA for next year, which I hope to get of course.  But now onto the more important thing I saw when I was waiting to be interviewed for my position.  

I was outside waiting to be called in, as I was looking around I saw this small bumper sticker on the door.  It said: "Never put a period where God has placed a comma."  I thought this was brilliant. So the next time you read God's Word, look at where He puts commas and make sure you read all the way through in order to get His point! And remember, don't replace that comma with a period!
