I repent, I repent of my pursuit of America’s dream

I repent, I repent of living like I deserve anything

My house house, my fence, my kids and my wife,

In our suburb we’re safe and white,

I am wrong and of these things I repent…

If I only realized that this dream and others like it are crap compared to what God offers me. It’s like gorging myself on stale popcorn so I have lost my taste for the elegant, expensive feast going on in the next room. A fast from the ‘food’ this world offers is important. Whatever I feed will grow, be it my flesh or my spirit…

ANNOUNCEMENT!

So, a few months ago, Matt the Cook was promoted to Matt the Husband. As it turns out, God has seen fit to promote me yet again! That’s right! In about eight or nine months I’ll step up to the position of Matt the Father! Yay!! Pray for us!

Dad out.
