A friend of mine died in a car crash on Thursday night. Her name was Emily. She was an incredible person. She was driving up to suprise her fiance, who she was supposed to marry in July, and one of her tires blew, causing her car to flip and roll. She was wearing her seatbelt. Death is always hard, especially when it is unexpected. Your prayers for her family are much appreciated.
The amzing thing about the Scripture is that a scholar could study it all his life and never learn all there is, yet a child can read and know all it is about.
Today has been somewhat rough. I am really sad about this. We have friends there. I can't imagine what they are going through.
I was going to post about a review about Facing the Giants, but I think that can wait.
One of the things that has been on my mind lately is living well. I think too often we try to live spiritual, and never live well. Perhaps one of the highest forms of worship to our Creator is to live the best we can doing what He created us to do. Maybe if we just honored Him with our lives insted of just our words, we would learn what living for Him is all about. Life is too short.
Emotions running high all around.
My weekend was good. How about yours?
Saturday I did a little babysitting. We went and watched TMNT at the theatres, then back to the house to watch Nanny Mcphee. Sunday is always busy. We had a team in from Ephesus Baptist Church that helped us out. We watched Facing the Giants in service (I'll post a review later). We had a staff meeting at 2:30 that didn't last too long. I talked with Jenifer last night a bit. Then I slept.
I have decided I would like the weather to stay one temperature for a while. Not that it matters, but still I would like to see it.
Today is tax day. Hope everyone has taken care of that.
Changing the way you feel...is that something you have to want to do? I think it is, and I am not so sure I want to.
I will be down to Florida for a few days middle of next week.
Agreed. You should never shave your chest and stomach on a whim 
Now I must go to the store.
Today has been pretty chill. I like those days and think I will have to enjoy them more often. I changed the look of my xanga a bit this afternoon. I slept in until 9:45 this morning. I cut my hair. Took care of some stuff down at the DMV that I needed to do. Got a bite to eat and some coffee. Caught up on watching movie trailers so I know what is coming out in the next little while. Other than that I just have relaxed. I might go out later on. Hope everyone is doing well. Later.
Sometimes I miss people.....Here are a few at the moment 
(In no particular order)
I am sure there are more people (so don't feel left out if you aren't on here), but I am tired and think I am going to crash.
"He has no stately form or majesty that we should look upon Him, nor appearence that we should be attracted to Him." -Isaiah
I wonder what Jesus would look like if He had come in 2007? Would we treat Him any different now than He was treat then? Are we?
"The King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to me'.....Then He will answer them 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.' -Jesus
I think we carry scars in life for a reason. It is a reminder of what we have been through. I was tell some guys the other day that even though we are new creations in Christ, we still carry the scars of the life of sin that we used to live. The more we operate in the light of Jesus, the more the scars fade away. With healing, which usually comes with time, our spiritual scars become obscure like our physical ones. Most scars are only known if we make them known.
I was talking to my cousin tonight and we talked about feelings. She told me there is nothing that can change the way I am feeling right now, that I just have to feel it no matter how bad it is. I kind of like that, not the pain part, but the fact that I have to feel it. It is part of the healing process. Life is just that way. We only see a small part of the picture. We only see where we have been and where we are at (which many times our vison of such places isn't clear), but we can't see where we are going. The fact is we are going somewhere. Somewhere good. Sometimes the road to get there though is slippery and you find yourself falling and getting hurt. The key is to realize that falling is not the end of the road, and neither is getting hurt. No matter how hard it hurts, you have to get back up and keep on going toward your destination. You will only get there if you keep moving toward it.
I think the road is worth walking down, no matter where it leads, no matter how many times I fall.
