a note from JonMark....

My life as of now!
I am on a flight to Denver Colorado with my bro and bryan reflecting on my life while they watch 300.  I am listening to country music and thinking about my life.  How being home the last couple months I have grown and matured and working on being a better person and searching for God.  In the last 23 yrs of my life I guess I have tried to do things on my own.  At times I thought I was trusting him completely but I wasn't.  I didnt understand how.  I still thought I didn't need any help.  Once I got to high school everything came easy to me.  I was popular and started all four years in baseball and three in basketball.  I didn't need any help I thought.  I went on to get drafted by the braves.  I have had some success but also a lot of injuries.  Looking back I guess I was like why do I need God when he allows such bad things to happen me.  It hasn't been till the last couple of months I started to trust him and have seen how he allowed those things to happen to me to make me a better person.  It also wasn't till recently I accepted the fact I needed help and couldn't do anything with out him in my life.  I am still not where I think I need to be, but it is a big step for me to say hey lord I am ready for your help.  I need you in my life.  I can't do it alone anymore.
