Stitch in your knitted brow

and you don't know how
you're gonna get it out
crushed under heavy chest
trying to catch your breath
but it always beats you by a step, all right now

making the best of it
playing the hand you get
you're not alone in this

there's hope for the hopeless

Hope for the Hopeless-A Fine Frenzy

I am so excited for the things God is doing for my Dad... Well let me explain. My dad for years has felt this yearning to help people mainly young men/boys/men who have been bogged down by wrong decisions, who are stuck, and who had a bad card dealt, whether it be bad parents, no money for a good education, or just plain struggling. [which I mean who doesn't] He has this longing to plant seeds in young men to be men of God. All my freaking life we have had guys around the house who need a couch to sleep on, an ear to listen, some food, a job, advise, and sometimes a kick in the butt [lol]... and he has been there for them all and no matter what was asked of him. So he has that pull and he wants to set up a place for them to come. There is this long story that I really can't do justice but somehow by the hand of God he ran across this property... and he felt God telling this was it. He waited for a LONG time... and he struggled with it. There was this huge family lawsuit going on with the property holding him back and things that kept creeping up. It really is a long story but this week he got the call that they chose his bid on the property... Today he sat down with the owner and hashed out some of the lease. He will soon sign an 11 year lease. I am so happy that he has the opportunity to give some his heart and do some work he will actually enjoy. The map above is of the property it sits on 4 to 5 miles of the Cahaba River, it also sits right off highway 5, and has tons of potential. Im totally stoked to see how this plays out. Be praying please :)
