I am a dorky Christian, husband to my beautiful wife & best friend and father of three amazing children. In my spare time, I like to play guitar and coach little kids' baseball.
I use this website to log my random thoughts (which doesn't seem to be that frequent).
I am a designer, developer and web analyst for my company, Visual Notion.

I gave the "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day" speech to our oldest children this morning when they wanted to pick at their breakfast instead of eat it. (It's frosted mini shredded wheat. What's not to like?)
My proud speech: "Do you know what the most important meal of the day is? Breakfast. You need it to get you going in the morning and help you make it through the day. It will give you energy to run, play, and think. It is very important."
My wife and I got the kids ready and I dropped them off for school as is our priority most mornings. I knew I needed to read my Bible this morning and spend some time with God. In that still quiet voice that he used with Elijah on the mountain, He kept reminding me: "Spend some time with me."
I kept putting that time off for getting some small things done and knew I needed to stop and talk with Him this morning. I stopped what I was doing, and started to read from Nehemiah 1 and how he was in a constant conversation with God through out his day.
Then God used my Breakfast Speech against me:
"Do you know what the most important spiritual meal of the day is? Breakfast. You need time with me to get you going this morning and to help you make it through the day. I will give energy to run, to play and to think about things like you should."
It was an awesome reminder to make time for God, this morning. Now that I've started my spiritual breakfast I need to carry that over with other spiritual meals throughout the day. If I typically eat three physical meals a day and sometimes snack, it doesn't take that much more to do so spiritually, either.
So, don't forget to eat your Spiritual Breakfast and Spiritual Meals today.
It doesn't take much time and your day will have more energy and strength to make it through your day, everyday.
