    I think it's funny that you have your glasses hanging from your shirt while climbing.😂 Don't loose your spectacles. -- I was climbing a REALLY dead tree today (posting soon) and the whole time I had my Holy Spirit antennas up looking/listening/feeling anything that said, stop climbing Tim. Needless to say, I'm still alive and well.

We all will eventually meet our maker- can’t stop the clock. My advice is to be a good human with the short time we are on this planet. Peace Brother.

  • @vtpatriot686
    @vtpatriot686 5 месяцев назад

    Sooooo true! The other day I was doing a clearing job. My “internal voice” told me how to proceed with the removals. The contractor in charge of the excavation wants to “just push over” a huge ash leaning over the neighbors property. It has a split with two leaders so no hinge wood and a very heavy lean. Decided to walk away and have another tree company bring in a crane. Made everyone mad but I need to listen to that “voice” when it speaks to me!

    Hey August! This was great to hear, I too find myself lacking in giving Glory to God, and you sir are certainly more forthcoming with it than I. I know there is no good in me save that which comes from Him, and He has done so much good in me and through me over the years, as he has with you. Great words that you brought in this video, Thank you! and Thank God for them!

What good is it to have so many thousands of people admiring you without knowing that it is the love and gift of God through Christ Jesus that has empowered you in new life to be a fruitful, kind, thoughtful, capable husband, father, leader, and teacher! If you speak it lovingly, it is people's choice how they respond.

This is another video that does just that! Tony -Grass Valley CA.

    Thank you August for sharing your testimony faith and hope.

  • @troyerthedestroyer
    @troyerthedestroyer 6 месяцев назад

    Thanks for keeping it real August! You have always walked with grace and humility whenever you have talked about your faith on the channel and I'm sure that has had some unbelievers pondering. The gospel is the purest form of freedom! By putting our faith in Jesus we don't need to worry about if we are "doing enough" to grow the church. Living in radical freedom and pure unconditional love that can only come through Christ is something that can be seen even when words are hard.

    little by little I have been humbled by life and its lessons and miracles...........and your talk rings more than true with me...tree work is interesting to me, but the dose of your life experience has much more value...thanks Mr August

  • @tompinnef6331
    @tompinnef6331 6 месяцев назад

    Thank you for the message. Glad you rethought how you would fall the tree. More work is somethings 'less' work. If you make 12 cuts when you thought it would only be 3. But later found it was heavier then you thought (as you told us). Hope that makes sense. Thank you for the video. Hope the crew / family and you are doing well. God Bless - Be safe.

    @tkilg7169 6 месяцев назад +2

    Thanks for this video. Most of us have dark feelings about the future we may face.
    No matter what happens in our world, many of us can be optimistic because of our faith in God and Jesus.
    I think of the most eloquent analogy, about the man that was on trial for murder, and upon his conviction and then hearing the judge read out the sentence...... death, quietly a man stood up and stated that he would take the man's place and be executed so that the condemned man could go free, Imagine the feelings that the man had, knowing that someone sacrificed himself to save him.
    If it were me, I would do anything I could to glorify the man who gave his life for a rotton lowlife like me.

  • @kevinbprice7448
    @kevinbprice7448 6 месяцев назад

    "Depends on how good we are at listening..." ( to the holy Spirit). I identify with you 100%! So many things in my life work out for the good that could easily be seen as near misses. I've told numerous people that I feel so blessed even with the "small things" in life bc God cares about those too! I believe when we make a genuine effort to honor God by the things that we do and the way that we do it, he blesses that effort. Will things happen sometimes? Most likely - but he's bigger than those problems.

    I'm an Atheist, which purely means I don't believe in God or a divine paradigm, but that doesn't mean I don't have respect for other people's beliefs. Anyone can have and live by kind and fair morals, just like anyone from any background can do the opposite.

But we are called by the father to evangelize. What we say has a real effect of the hearts of our neighbors. When I first started watching your videos in 2015 I was an angry atheist and it was the things I heard you and other men I respect say about god and their faith that softened my heart and bought me to Jesus. Thank you for speaking up my friend.

    Just for a moment imagine what it would be like if we could go behind the scenes with God. We all if we will admit it have those ah ha moments when we realize the hand of God in our lives. To acknowledge and give him the glory is the least and the greatest simultaneously. His will be done in earth as it is in heaven, love you, Maranatha
