Hi. This is my first blog entry as a Dad, and it will probably go hand in hand with my blog as a professional software developer (roundrockdev@blogspot.com). The point is that life is a tricky balance between fulfilling our highest calling as parents and husbands while maintaining that critical balance with work-life and being true to ourselves.
Our highest calling comes from God, and it is through serving Him that we are most successful when following our other paths. I know that there are many who don't share this view, and its not my point to prosleytize. Just know that any success I experience I attribute to God, and my failures usually come from my failure to stay on this path.
That is not to say that we don't encounter resistance and trouble along our paths - of course we do. But success or failure is not judged by the path you take, it's judged on whether or not you reach your destination. And since the destination of every path that I want to take ends with God, everything I do that brings me or someone I love closer to Him I deem as success.
I hope you enjoy following along - my next post is to relate a hilarious story about my boys from about six weeks ago.
