Major Catch-Up Coming…

Ok, so I’ve been pretty out of it blog-wise the past week. It’s not so much an issue of not wanting to blog. It’s just an issue of having the right time to do it. I’m thinking I’m going to work in a good chunk of time tomorrow to catch up on everything that’s been going on. I think my problem too is that I really like doing my post right before I go to bed. This is good and bad as my day is done but I usually spend a good chunk of time writing and don’t get to bed as soon as I really need to. I’m going to leave with at least one topic posted…

So a match has been found on eHarmony, and the communication stages have progressed through to the open messages back-and-forth. When I got to step 4 in the communication I started to get a little nervous. I’m still feeling aprehensive about the whole relationship thing after the last time. I’m feeling like I’m just setting myself up to get hurt again, seeing as how the only two relationships I’ve ever had have ended badly. I’m going into this with pretty much no expectations. This may be good or bad but the only way I’m going to be able to move forward in this area of my life. This may turn out to be nothing but it will be good for experience. I’ve given her the opportunity to read my blog. This may not have been wise by some, but I figure this is as close to who I really am and will give her the ability to see a bigger picture of who I am. I guess I figure if she sees this and doesn’t run for the hills then maybe I’ve got a chance at finding someone special out there that will love me for exactly who I am. Isn’t that the idea behind finding a mate. If they don’t love you for all you are then the relationship probably won’t last. Well, time will tell where this goes. Just another adventure in this thing called life. Well chow for now!

    Student Ministries

    Going to make a quick post tonight. This is my second round of seeing my time come to an end working with a group of student guys. Crazy enough the last group of guys I had are just graduating college this year. For me, no matter what it seems so hard to not havve regrets. Wishing I had more deep conversations, spent more time hanging out, took more opportunities to serve together, and I’m sure the list could go on. What I trust and hope in was that God was able to use me exactly as He had intended. I may never know if I really had an impact in these guys’ lives, and may even doubt when I catch glimspes of their lives down…

    Looking For Answers, Relying On Faith

    We live in a world where people are always looking for answers. Sometimes the answers are beyond our understanding. That’s where faith takes over. “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord . “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” – Isaiah 55:8‭-‬9 NLT

    Hoping to Get Back in The Groove…

    Something that came up at our Life Shapes meeting this morning, was the subject of mission. This is something that I’ve been sort of struggling with, in that I’m trying to determine what my mission should be. I think this brings me back to the Purpose Driven Life. I have felt, for a long time, that my heart is for youth. This has been what has drawn me to my years working at Inspiration Point, and my current involvement with the Bethel youth. I’m not sure how the Missional Community of Faith and my heart for youth might be tied together. This is something that I’ll be looking for God’s direction in, as is life in general. Well, this is just s short post. Let’s…

    Odd Holiday Week, Real Healthy Living Test

    This was a strange Holiday season with the timing of how Christmas and New Years fell, day-of-the-week wise. We had to celebrate our own Christmas a couple of days early and then traveled over the Holidays. Neither Christmas or New Years has felt like it was actually happening. We’ll still be celebrating Christmas with my in-laws in the next week. I’m not sure how next year so play out but I think we’re going to be taking breaks from traveling to Minnesota for Christmas, and go only every other year. It has been interesting trying to celebrate the Holidays and manage a healthy lifestyle. I will say that my wife and I together have done about as best as can be expected. We’ve both made…

  1. It’s like that song by Jon Brion:

    You’ve gotta hope
    That there’s someone for you
    Strange as you are
    Who can cope
    With the things that you do
    Without trying too hard

    etc…

    Good luck. I’m blogging about my eHarmony experiences as well lately…. which I think are mostly comedy. I’m not sold on the system yet, but I suppose I’ve got a couple more months to think about it.
