dg_Quotes - I'm sure the list will grow
One of my co-workers has some pretty good quotes from time to time. So much so that we started a white board at the office to collect them. Some are quotes that can be appreciated more by someone in the software development line of work. Here's a list of some we've collected so far:

2007 in review
I'm just not a very talkative person. One glance at this blog and you can guess that. I've always been quiet; the guy that just sits back and mostly listens. Sometimes it's perceived as a good trait. A listener can be a good thing, especially when someone else needs to do a bunch of talking. It can also be perceived as just not caring enough to say anything. That's seldom the case with me. I just probably think too much before I speak. I want to believe that I know what I'm saying is spot on truth. That just leads me to being quiet in a lot of discussions.
Well, enough of the rambling about being quiet...see a conflict here?
2007 has been a tough year in my life. I don't mean tough as compared to what others go through. I just mean tough as in what I have previously faced in my life. There is the physical well being of my wife that has been a roller coaster ride this year. It hurts so much to see her struggle and suffer. There has been my job that has been trying and demanding more so this year than any other. There are financial issues that weigh heavy on my mind. There is the responsibility as a Christian to carry one anothers burdens (Galations 6:2) and I have felt a heavy load due to people that I am close to having a trying year themselves.
It's not been all bad though. There have been good moments this year. Back in January there was a wonderful birthday weekend spent in Destin, FL that was arranged by my wife. There was the Chosen Witness reunion back in March. There have been several rounds of the card game "Hands and Feet" throughout the year that proved to be much fun. Of course the trip to NQC in September is always refreshing. Friends coming together to help paint my mom's house. It does something to my heart to be on the receiving and the giving end of such a project. My wife and I spent a weekend in Nashville, TN in December for Christmas. It was a very enjoyable time (in spite of the fact that she was sick during it).
I'm anxious to see what's in store in 2008. I feel that it is going to be a breaking free kind of year. Breaking free from a lot of the bondage that has led to the tough times in 2007.
I was drowning in self pity one day talking about mistakes I had made and a friend pointed out a very special truth to me when she asked "does God not forgive us when we make mistakes"? I responded "yes, He forgives". She then ask "will he not restore us by giving us another chance when we have failed"? I responded "yes he does restore and give second chances". Through these truths I am very anxious to see what's in store for 2008.
