    Chris, thank for sharing how important God is in your life and how great His love is! Jesus never said go and get people saved. He said "Go into all the worl and Make Deciples". That's what you have done ths morning. Phillippians 1:6 God bless you Chris!

      Thank you so much for watching & your kind words. I try not to be preachy or showy. I want my life and actions to show truth & love. Being real & hones has always been paramount on my channel.
      I love the passage too.

    I can't believe how strong and how much courage that took to make this video. Big man has your back, always, faith and trust will see you through. Keep on making sawdust and we'll keep on watching.

      Thank you. When we are weak, HE is strong. Too many men face similar or worse situations and simply hold it in or try to handle it alone. Society has formed us this way. It's time we all learn the importance of community and leaning on God and others for help to get us through.

      @@ChristcrossCrafts damn that was well said. Something my old squad used to say back in the day "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9. our squad prayer, still say it daily now. Trust in him, his plan is not for you to know but your faith and trust will see you through to the light.
      Be strong brother.

    Bro…my wife and I were there fall of 2018. I hit a dark place for a couple of months (holidays and anniversary). But it wasn’t until I spoke to God and He spoke to me, that I was able to get up and get going. I started doing what you’re talking about…taking care of myself…get healthy…eat better…and start working out. I lost 50lbs and felt better about myself and my relationship with God. Then Jesus came through. After spending months praying that the Lord save my wife and help her make it to heaven…she came home. That was spring of 2019. We have since celebrated 4 more anniversaries (26 years and counting).
    Bottom line…stay strong and stay connected to God. He knows what He’s doing and He can do a work that you never thought possible. Keep it up!!

    Chris, Glad to hear that you are getting back into the swing of things (with wood working) as this will help you both mentally and emotionally. It is definitely hard to try and move forward after being together for 30 years and raising three girls, but through our Abba Father, all things are possible. Take care and wishing you and your girls the very best.

      It's not something I've put out because the details are too raw and too much. This was done in hopes it would encourage others to press on and process life instead of burying it and getting angry like it's so easy to do.

    Chris, sorry about the Mrs. God can bring her back. She just needs to remember who she is in Christ. 2 Peter 1:9
    "For he who lacks these things is blind, seeing only what is near, having forgotten the cleansing from his old sins." Hang in there. The Lord loves you and the Mrs. I have one question: I didn't understand the part about your daughter?

      Thank you for watching and commenting. It's been a trial of a few years but I will know I will overcome.
      My daughter was diagnosed with a brain issue two years ago and has undergone several surgeries and procedures, only to still have the health issues. It is causing her to pass out and have debilitating migraines. She can't work or drive now at only 23. God has her and will protect her.
