The Flood
Ge 6:1 When men began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them,
Ge 6:2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose.
Ge 6:3 Then the LORD said, “My Spirit will not contend with man forever, for he is mortal; his days will be a hundred and twenty years.”
Ge 6:4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.
Ge 6:5 The LORD saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time.
Ge 6:6 The LORD was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain.
Ge 6:7 So the LORD said, “I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—men and animals, and creatures that move along the ground, and birds of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them.”
Ge 6:8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.
Ge 6:9 This is the account of Noah.
Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time, and he walked with God.
Ge 6:10 Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham and Japheth.
Ge 6:11 Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence.
Ge 6:12 God saw how corrupt the earth had become, for all the people on earth had corrupted their ways.
Ge 6:13 So God said to Noah, “I am going to put an end to all people, for the earth is filled with violence because of them. I am surely going to destroy both them and the earth.
Ge 6:14 So make yourself an ark of cypress wood; make rooms in it and coat it with pitch inside and out.
Ge 6:15 This is how you are to build it: The ark is to be 450 feet long, 75 feet wide and 45 feet high.
Ge 6:16 Make a roof for it and finish the ark to within 18 inches of the top. Put a door in the side of the ark and make lower, middle and upper decks.
Ge 6:17 I am going to bring floodwaters on the earth to destroy all life under the heavens, every creature that has the breath of life in it. Everything on earth will perish.
Ge 6:18 But I will establish my covenant with you, and you will enter the ark—you and your sons and your wife and your sons’ wives with you.
Ge 6:19 You are to bring into the ark two of all living creatures, male and female, to keep them alive with you.
Ge 6:20 Two of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind of creature that moves along the ground will come to you to be kept alive.
Ge 6:21 You are to take every kind of food that is to be eaten and store it away as food for you and for them.”
Ge 6:22 Noah did everything just as God commanded him.

Every morning when I wake up in my 18 wheel home away from home
I spend a few moments with the Boss, you know the one I call Dad.
Then I go into the truck stop get a cup of go juice and make sure to say a kind word to the person at the fuel desk. Hey you would need a kind word if you delt with a few 100 drivers every day yourself. As I start walking back to my truck I start praying for the drivers in the lot and ask that God's grace and favor will be over them as they travel down the hwy's that day. As I get back to my truck I put my hands on it and say a prayer for my own safety and that God would use me to touch the life of another driver on this day. No don't get me wrong I'm not one of those bible thumping Christians your mama warned you about but I am A driver that gives credit where it is due.
One thing I do know is that my life as and O/O was almost over staying in the red was a way of life for me. My son working as a fry cook at sonic was making more money than me. I could'nt afford to give my truck back to freightliner and have a bad mark on my credit (at 44 it's hard to try to repair) but at the same time I could not afford to keep it notes insurance fuel and road tax and fuel itself hitting 3 bucks I couldn't hold on much longer.
But one day I put it all in God's hands, I thought if anyone could save this business he was the man. I begin to send %10 of my earnings to Feed The Children I started reading my bible every day and doing a whole lot of praying. Making God the number one detail in my life and my business, and it begin to turn around almost like and over night thing. This last month my inpocket profit was $8600.00.
So with this web log I want to help you to do the same thing. You can turn your business around you can live a better life and you can have a friend to help you with any problem you could face on the road, check back here and read daily words for over the road and let God help you turn it all around
God Bless
