I'm not quite sure how to add a video. This song is one that I think greatly shows an amazing love for God. Its been a great blessing, and I hope it will be for you as well!!!

This is another song, it shows a lot about how I feel sometimes. I walked a way for a long time, and now trying to come back, its very hard. But God is good, and He can always get us back to where we need to be. One part of the song simply goes "I tried so hard." But its not about what we can do, its about what he can do in us. I hope you enjoy this song as well! This is Red-Pieces.

This will be my final one, at least for this post. I love music, lol, so bare with me. This is by one of my favorite christian bands, Kutless! They have harder rock, and they have very soft rock. I like it all, lol, but this one is soft! It talks about how God will never leave us. He hears us, He loves us, He really is our shepherd! Praise God for the love that He so freely gives. When we have done so much to give Him reason not to! Hes so good, if you didnt listen to the others, please listen to this one! I think you will enjoy it!!!

Thank you sooooo much Lord, for all that you do, for music, for mercy! I am not worthy!

I was watching Jericho, and it came to a point in the show, that broke me to tears. I hate so much the pain that people have to go through. Afterwards I started to pray for thoughs who have been or are going through what was portrayed in the show. I thought about how the unsaved people, they literally have no where to go when things like this come up. They have themselves so they have to put so much weight on their shoulders. I keep wanting to say thats not fair, but I know it is. Its more than fair. Because of sin, we've screwed everything up. Than I remembered, last year in seminary. We watched a movie called Charlie. Its a mormon movie. And these people, they cry out to who they think is God, with all their heart. But because their decieved, and they dont know the true God, He doesnt hear them. How in the world do you deal with that. But than I thought, Im sure for every one of our tears, God has 2 or more, probably way more. He does love them, but He's perfectly just! In this world of pain and darkness, He saved us, and wants us to be the light, the salt. Its so hard to be the light and the salt.

"When the oceans rise, and thunders roar, I will soar with you above the storm."
"Wooo-oooo-hooooo, Wooo-oooo-hooooo, Why do you build me up, butter cup baby just to let me down, let me down..." cough-cough, sorry, its a good song, I had to sing :-P. Anyways, God is good! My car should probably have been towed yesterday for parking in an unplowed parking lot, but it wasnt. Going for a walk around midnight to get my car, I realised that night time, isnt so dark in the winter. The moonlight must reflect the snow and light everything up, lol. It was actually very pretty and nice out last night.
When I got to my car, there was people having good times doing donuts. Unfortunately I couldnt join them, lol, I dont know how. But thats ok, it was cool watching them for a couple minutes while I cleaned off my car.
On another note, Jericho is an amazing show! :-P

last night I was up talking to a good friend till a little after 1 about a problem. Let me tell you God blesses good fellowship. If it wasnt for last night, today would have been horrible, and I would have missed out on a lot of blessings. Though I definitely probably missed some when I first got up. I got a phone call around 7:30 in the morning, that I was not happy about. I did not want to be out of bed at that time. I ignored it in anger, and they called back around 8. In my mind I wanted to scream out, Im tired, leave me a lone. Accidentaly picking up however, that would have been bad. So I reluctantly said hello. Turns out the guy that Ive been helping out, and hes been very graciously paying me to help me out in my down time right now. Anyways, he needed help. I said it might be a little while, and we hung up, not on a good note. Bad me! I got there, and he didnt give me any problems, I was not happy to see this guy Jay. Bad me again! Im supposed to love everyone, but I cant stand to be around this guy. Hes never ever positive, always picking on his helper hard core. I hate that kinda stuff. Im not talking innocent joking around, I mean he really tears into this guy! So my attitude still sucked. But I was given a challenge, to make sure that from the beginning, I would be talking to God. Just telling Him everything, little to big. So when I woke up, I was already in the all to common battle. Me vs. New me, lol. After I started to work, I through on some Christian music, and tried to listen to the lyrics for some encouragement. Which I greatly enjoy! I praise God alllll lthe time for music!!!! If it wasnt for music, Id lose it. Than I noticed that it was a beautiful day out, and I enjoyed work. I enjoyed the people. My attitude changed, it was awesome! If it weren't for God, I would be in the dumps.

Gods creation is amazing, the trees, the leaves, the snow, the ice, the thunder, the lightning, the birds, everything, Its all a masterpiece. Praise Him for He is good! Understatement of the year
:-P

Well, today I was very glad to come home around 3 ish and see that our power was finally back on. I'm not gonna lie, I enjoyed the time without power. Got to kick my moms butt in Golf (a card game). Not really though, we played to fifty, you want the lowest score (hense the name). In the last round I was 1 point away from hitting 50, and my mom was like 6. We ended up tying at 60 to 60, and I beat her in over time. HOO-RA!!! :-P. Got to chill with my brother, listening to music while freezing. But for once I didnt care about being cold, lol. Got a lot of reading in to, so that was good... and odd... I never read.

On another note, we definitely got our Christmas tree, its small this year :-(. But its still nice, lol. I really cant complain.

Tonight was awesome!!!! I was just talking with people on Aim when my facebook popped. lol. It was a guy from Highschool whos had a lot of hard times lately. Hes not saved. He wants to meet up somewhere and we can talk about God and the Bible. We chatted for over an hour, and I get the blessing hopefully of sharing the gospel!!!! How God uses a fool like me, I dont know. Im nervous cause Im not good at talking. But I have to suck it up, lol, Im so excited though!!! His names Jason, please pray for him as well as for me. God is good!!! No doubt!!!!

On another note, Psalms 61,62,63 are all amazing!!!!

My brother came back from school today, with him he had a sheet on how to survive a fall down a street grating... I hope that is not a sign! That would be terrible, lol. At the end it says "Look for a ladder." Yeah... If I just fell through a grate, and didnt snap my leg, I dont think I would casually just look for a ladder. I would be to shaken up, and wondering what in the world just happened, lol. But anyway :-P.

God is good, but there is a family that just lost their home due to a fire :-(. Thats not so good. I hope to get an oppurtunity to somehow show them Gods love. Ya never know, amazing things might happen :-).

I was glad to get more snow, even if it was another, well... just a bit more than a dusting. But multiple dustings add up, and hopefully I can hit my first mountain soon :-P. I will try not to make ice on my way down for the not as cool skiers :-P. Just joking, lol.

yep, thats about it. I hope the Bible study goes well tonight. Sigh, I wont be able to be there.

I think thats it for now.

Im thinking everybody should listen to Don Francisco :-) It's encouraging Bible stories in a song, and it makes you want to praise God more!!!

Thursday, December 4, 2008

Today was the first day in a long time that I actually took a nap! I must be getting old, lol. Any-who, I have to go to bed early so I can wake up at 6 and head back to the house. We get some sweet lumber tomorrow. The demolition I believe is done, and soon we can start to build.

After that, movie night, so I am definitely psyched, and ready for that. But sad cause I wont be there Tuesday. I'm going to a friends Christmas concert to show support, and enjoy some sweet tunes :-P.

well, with no job coming in, Im out of gas money and cant pay the car insurance. So Im gonna lose my car. Thats the sigh, lol. The wonderful thing is that God is still so very good! He promises to provide, and thats what He'll do. Im listening to country music, and greatly enjoying it while eating cheddar chex mix, and Hawaian punch! Good stuff. Looking forward to Friday, should be a good time with the Bible study group :-). This week has been crazy, I havent even been home, lol, though its not a bad crazy. Yesterday I hung out with my friends Chris and Phil, and today I worked on Chris's Father's house, lol. It was cold, but we still managed to get a lot done. Anywho, thats about all thats going on here.
