Not that I check my facebook THAT often, but I do more than once a year for sure. As to the witty punny blog... I don't know if I am up to matching that right now. Life is good. There is always a struggle inside me as to whether or not I am DOING enough for the Lord. I suspect that if I focused most of my doing on developing my relationship with God the rest would take care of itself. Oh to be a disciplined soldier of the cross.... God is faithful though. He is using us here in Guthrie, OK. We have seen one youth group member saved. And our numbers are growing, not that that is even a good thing seeing we cannot properly disciple them all as it is humanly speaking. God is the mastermind and he only reveals just enough of his plan at one time for us to take the next step.
Grace and Caleb are doing well. It is amazing that my little baby boy is almost 10 months old now. He is jabberring away in his own language, crawling everywhere, standing up against things. He is a complete extrovert, unlike both of his parents. He LOVES people, and the more of them at once the happier he is. He really enjoys youth group. Grace stays busy taking care of Caleb and me, preparing for her sundayschool lessons, and planning youth events with me. Keep us in prayer :)
Hey, we got a new cell phone. I am trying to get every bit of functionality I paid for out of my monthly service, and that includes texting, IM, email, and all that stuff. 09 is good so far. In less than four weeks I get to hold my new son our daughter. That sounds really weird.

Three years one hundred eighty one days ago, if I am calculating correctly, I made my last post. It was about life before college. Now, seven months after graduation, I feel like part of my life is missing, was missing, got lost.... I now have a wife, a baby on the way, a full time ministry, and an ever increasing feeling of incompetence in this people centered career. I am Otis, the same one who started this blog, and yet ... I am not. I have been changed, stretched, broken down, and exposed to Christ. Now, though I feel more helpless and sinful, I know I can trust my God to continue to shape and mold me into something beautiful, and useful.
Greetings to my friends, Otis Samuel Coon
