Jacking houses and youth rallys

Hey ya'll! So our trailer is way older then I am, right? It has settled some in the years since it was placed on our lot. This has caused us some difficulties in our house. The main one being with doors. The front door wouldn't close properly and the screen door had a gap in the top which we named the "wasp entrance." Our closest door didn't shut at all and the bathroom door never stayed open. Daddy got under the house Friday and with the help of several pieces of wood, a hydrolic jack and car jack we fixed the problem. Now all three doors work properly! No more jerry-rigged ways to keep the Bathroom door open when no one is in there! Daddy also oiled the hinges so they no longer squeak. Now we can sneak around the house at night and no one will know!

Saturday the Tabernacle Youth Group went to a youth rally in Rocky Mount NC. It was a BLAST! The services were great! I enjoyed but yet didn't enjoy the last message. I am glad he preached it but I did not enjoy the conviction. He gave the salvation message in the first message. He talked about those who heard the Gospel and reject Christ are fools. The Bible calls them fools. God calls them fools. In the long run, they really are fools. Choosing a short time of pleasure and paying for it dearly in eternity. His second message was about how God wants us to live in the winner circle as Christians and what happens when a Believer sins. He used David as an example. If we commit sin (which is simply disobedience) we loose our sweet fellowship with God INSTANTLY, it displeases God, there will be a great deal of pain and suffering, we potentially become a stumbling block, and we will most likely suffer chastisement for our disobedience. But yet, there is this great hope that if we are truly sorry for what we have done, turn from it completely we WILL be forgiven and our fellowship with God is reconnected! To bad friendships hear on earth didn't work like that...Now, just because we have been forgiven does not mean we get out from under the consquences of our actions; those we still have to live with. All in all, it was a wonderful day! Here are some pictures from the day!
