Well… I haven’t posted in a while so I thought I would today. Sundays for me as of late have been quite reflective and today is no different. Life for me at this time has become what I am calling simply complicated. Complicated cause there are a lot of things I cannot understand. But simple …
Yeah… I don’t quite understand artist today, but eh. Remedy Drive is giving away their new record, Rip Open the Skies… and lemme tell you, it’s awesome. All you have to do is go to their website and fill in your email address and that’s it. I have personally heard this album before and my …
Well, I have really thought a lot this weekend about what 2007 will bring me. I have had some disappointments and tring situations, but things overall last year were good. I look forward this year to really focusing on my relationship with Christ. He is and can only be the one I go to for …
Well… I came to an interesting point in my life. Realizations that my life is more complicated than I thought. I have always thought God has put me on a track that always makes sense. But recently, being totally honest with myself, I realized that I am confused. Wrapped up into many things that I …
Okay so it’s been a while since I last posted… who cares? I don’t know if you do. Anywho much to talk about anyway. So I say today on an email I receieved, I saw at the bottom FreeDerekWebb.com and I said to myself (knowing that Derek Webb is a Christian music artist) “Is Derek …
I am sooo excited for camp this year. Below is the logo for the “new” Hill. The Hill normally is just 8th and 9th graders, but this year we are adding the 7th grade. I am looking forward to this change as well as many others that are being put into place this year. God …
With the movies this season really slowing down a bit. I guess I mean there is not really any good ones out that I want to see, except for King Kong which is 3hrs long. I have decided to type some of my more deeper thoughts. So here we go. I have been recently thinking …
Well… these last two weeks have been one of many ups and downs… It’s hard to say how I feel about all of it just yet but I am blogging about it to get something down for me to reflect upon later. So my trip to San Jose was one of serious self reflection. I …
Seeing that many people in the USA have just looked passed the event as just some trival thing. This is my effort at fixing that. Rosa Parks passed away this week and nothing has been said about it. Ray Charles passed away and they had concerts and special 60 minutes episode for him. Heck, Princess …
I recently listened to this new song by the Foo Fighters called Best of You and I have to say it is a reallly inspiring song to me. I have done a little research (on the Internet of course) into what others think about this song and it has spoken to a lot of people, …
In my attempt to do something other than movie reviews I will tell you about my upcomming week. Dundee Camp 2005. It is the best week of the year for me spiritually. I cannot wait for tomorrow, camp is going to be sooo fun. I once agian am on the Hill this year with 8 …
I am SOO excited for this weekend. Our new Associate Pastor Bo Burgener will preach this Sunday. What’s so great about this is that Bo will be the next Pastor for Youth ministry, which includes college/20-something ministry (my age group). It is also the best time for him to come on board because camp is …
I was reading my favorite book in the Bible today, 1 Corinthians and I was thinking about my journey with Christ so far… I have gone through a lot in the last 8 or so years and I have seen God change me in radical ways. I think and do so many things because of …
I know with out a doubt in my heart this expierence has changed me. God has sent me through a incredible expierence in the last three days and I am grateful. To anyone who reads my thoughts, I want you to know this: God loves you and you are his beloved. That over everything is …
Day 1 or ONE has been great so far… we arrived at Willow Creek Community Church an hour before we scheduled to arrive. I am now sitting in the HUGE food court waiting for the first session of the ONE conference 🙂 God is good all the time, All the time God is good.
“…Didn’t I tell you that I must do whatever the LORD tells me?” -Numbers 23:26 This was one of the verses I read in an email from a friend of mine from UNO today. I was so encouraged by this verse I have to blog about it. I feel just like Balaam in this passage. …
I have recently had the time to do some self reflection, and I have come to the realization that a lot of what motivates me, is what is hindering me. I am motivated by seeing people I am in contact with, being changed because of something I did or helped them do. This is great …
My mother had open heart surgery yesterday and I have to explain how it felt for me to be in this situation. God has humbled my heart and given me peace about a lot of things this week and this was one of them. I felt at ease about the whole situation. I felt like …
The new year has gotten me to reflect a lot more. I guess this being in the mist of biggest transistion of my life so far (being a student to being an IT professional) has started to wear on me a little bit more. I realize the value of seeking God in everything I do. …
God is changing me. I have in the last week been so overwhelmed by the power of the Lord that I cannot deny what he is doing in my life. I see him everyday, more than I have in a while. Today, it has really hit me. It says in Acts 3:18-19 “For as I …
