The incomparable Washington

to my friends in far yonder Washington,

I cannot tell you how much i miss it up there. I was so exited to come back and celebrate Uncle John's 20 years of service. It was so exiting. I am glad that he was finally noticced. What a wonderful evening. I just wanted to boast...i mean..post about little Marysville, Washington. See, you guys hear a lot of talking from people that leave. They actually mock Marysville. It's little, but it packs a massive punch. I have been so changed by the ministry up there that i will never forget about it. You have no idea how much i love it up there! I love the friends, (and really hated to leave you guys) I loved the church, and i love the WEATHER! The weather is so wonderful because it's cold. Now, don't get me wrong, i love what the Lord is doing down here. He is so gracious to put me in the Master's College and i love the church. I am praying that the Lord uses me for His glory down here, so I don't want you to get the wrong message. I am very content.
I just wanted to remind you guys how awesome you have it up there. Just a couple of things. 1. Hold on to the chuch. It is amazing! The teaching and the teachers you guys have are amazing. I would cut off my right arm to be under my dad's and especially Sean's teaching again (and im a drummer!) I have been blessed to be there. 2. The school. As lame as those mockers say it is, you guys are so fotunate. I wish i could have the friends i have up there...down here. 3. The accountability. The number one thing i lack down here is good accountability. Never, ever, take that for granted. You are so fotunate. I hope this is a good reminder to love where God has placed you and be ready to let Him use you, in the small pond, or the ocean. :)

Love you guys and miss you much,

david zimmer

Thanks for that reminder, brother. It's always easy to forget about the blessings that we have. That's why its always good to stop and count them. I've learned that in the last couple of days. Thanks for the post, skitch.

dude, I can totally relate! I love what is happening in Cali, but heart is always in Washington. It is hard sometimes to cope with the different environment, but it is for our own God. Thanks for posting brother!

David,
I miss your friendship up here. I'm crossing my fingers that you'll get to take those drums and make a career out of them someday. I will live vicariously (sp?) through you as you rock the nations...or er um...jazz them ;)

Give me a call sometime...perhaps every 3 months lol? Lets try and stay in touch. I would like to have you as a friend when the droids land. In the future my son is a "mac ninja warrior" who actually frees the people of earth from the machines. Recently a "ter-min-ator" has come back from the future and he's been saying all sorts of stupid crap and shooting at things. Frankly it's a little unnerving. So, I could use a man of your talents when the rebellion comes. Keep it in mind. It may mean taking a year off the drums for the sole purpose of wielding a massive weapon that looks like a little space station in your hands. It may mean firing it, Dave. You think you can handle that? I don't want any tears on the battlefield. This is a brutes war! You other guys (Tony, Kramer, that's right I'm talking to you!) are needed as well. Don't miss out on this opportunity. Now you battle bugs, but I tell you this, I will make you battlers of machines. You fish for men? This is a good thing. But now you must fish for fish. Cause that's what we eat on the field, baby! Fish! Fresh Alaskan Cod, baby! It's the fish that keep the nostrils working! It's the fish that feed the trigger finger! You remember that when the time comes. You keep that in mind...
