So...January of last year was my previous blog...I guess I've been a little busy. You could say that. If you've been keeping up with our other blog (almost completely updated by my wife Ashley: http://wilgusfamilyfaith.blogspot.com/) then you already know about our plan to live minimally. We just got to the point to where we realized that we have...had way too much stuff and we had no idea where it came from. We sold our three bedroom house and moved into a duplex right next door to the church where I now work.
That's right folks! I'm a youth pastor. I still haven't made any progress getting licensed, but that will come very soon (I hope). In all honesty, it's my own fault why I haven't had the process started already. There's a single test that stands in my way, and for some reason the test is frightening me. It's the first test I've ever had to take that has the power to stop me from going forward in a career; and yet, I haven't gone forward because I haven't taken the test to even find out if I'd pass or fail it. I need to do it before mid-May, because that's when I will be starting my Master of Divinity through Liberty University Online. That's right! I'm furthering the process for credibility before I actually become credible...if that makes any sense.
In other news, I absolutely love being home with my family. People have been telling me that the reentry to the family lifestyle brings difficulties. I never really paid too much attention to that, mostly because of my overwhelmingly optimistic mindset. And while we are now doing much better, it has definitely brought it's share of what are now somewhat humorous arguments. It has been rough. It has been sweet. But I thank the Lord for providing us both with the incredibly high level of patience that He has.
And speaking of the Lord, this coming weekend is Easter weekend. I would write a little blurb about it right here, but what would the fun in that be. Check back this weekend and be blessed.
At that I will cut this short, leaving you with a family picture from last Fourth of July.
Be blessed, everyone!
