Stepping Out On Faith


So this is my first official blog. I have partnered with a friend of mines to start our first radio show together. For the past several years I have been working for the Post Office and let me tell you when they say "GOING POSTAL" that is exactly how you feel. I so many times felt like I was going to lose it. Now I am at a different point in my life and in this terrible economic world I am truly just wanting to follow my dreams. I have felt as if I am being selfish seeing as though my wife, (yes I said my wife) is our sole source of income. I actually have cried about it. How can you walk away from a steady income to pursue your dreams but honestly I felt so close to the edge at times; almost like I was losing it and going to snap. I prayed for guidance and I prayed for God to speak to me. I enthralled myself in activities such as Disabled American Veterans, starting a local Biggest Loser Challenge for the lgbt community, starting our Radio Show and now Blogging all the while I'm still looking for full time employement closer to home. Oh did I mention that my job transferred me over two hours away from home. Which in tell lead to me missing priceless moments with my wife and child. I made a very hard choice and yes I thought about it over and over. My goal is to attain my degree in Computer Systems Info & Tech, continue to work at my radio show, and blog while maintaining my household. Yesterday I was so discouraged and beating myself up about my decision and then I got a phone call from a friend. She is very ill and going through Chemo and she took a moment out of her day to call me and tell me she was proud of me and the things I am doing. When I tell you I cried like a baby and the next thing you know I was in my house shouting and praising the Lord! I asked for it and God came right out and confirmed it. I say that to say this that Faith is and forever will be a positive driving force in my life. When you feel like your back is against the wall and you have no where to turn; God will not only show up but he will show out. I hope this initial blog gives you some insight on who I am as a person and I hope you take some time out to listen to our radio show Fresh Leftovers "The Fox & Klu Radio Show". We will premier our first show Halloween evening at 9pm. Get ready for some insight, laughs, and truths... See you soon
