Life’s Lows…

ByTim Nolte

No worries, things are good I just seem to be suffering from some social withdrawal. That being said God is working on my patience, thank goodness. I’m fighting my mind daily, but it’s been those times God has given me the ability to just give it to Him. Something that is interesting, I’ve been have some interesting dreams. These dreams have been about the same general thing. It seems like these have been dreams that God has brought to mind to reveal something to me that I didn’t realize was there. Basically I’ve had some recentment about something. I’ve asked for forgiveness for this. Something else that God has shown me is why I’ve not been content over the years staying in one place. I have been getting to the D2’s in the square Life Shape. I’ve been hitting the hardtime and thinking that means it’s time to move on. Wrong, that was the time I needed to dig deep and look for strength from God to guide me through it. This will be something I’ll need to be keeping my guard up for in the future.

Work has been pretty typical, if there is such a thing. Probably nothing much that anyone is interested in hearing about. Well, sorry to disappoint some people. I’ve recently been told my blog has been getting kind of boring. I’m not sure what is going to keep it exciting. Yeah, I know there were quite a few eHarmony related posts. I’m kind of on a break from the eHarmony drama. There are those that know why, those of you that don’t, bummer for you, lol. I’m finding it is probably best to keep up the daily posts. The walk through my day is good, but like I said it’s not always very exciting. Well, I’m going to call it a night here. I’m off to my parent’s tomorrow.

    Taking A Moment To Update…

    ByTim Nolte
    Well, fine folks who have been patiently, or impatiently, been waiting for my next real post. I’m taking this time I have during lunch to give a little recap of what’s been going on in my life. I’ve been working to reduce the stress in my life and not take on anymore work. The only problem with this, it gives me time to fill. What have I decided to do with this free time, start a podcast. Many of you probably are aware of the podcast by now, if not check it out (https://www.faithshaping.org/). I am really enjoying doing the podcast. I’m almost feeling inclined to expand my podcasting. I’ve considered moving my regular text blog to perhaps even an audioblog, or at least take…

    Wild Life: No One Gets The Master Plan, And No One Is Perfect

    ByTim Nolte Updated on
    I’ve known for a long time that I’m a perfectionist and a planner. This had always been both a strength and a great weakness for me. The major weakness is that I’m always trying to figure out God’s plan and I turn my perfectionism into unrealistic expectations of others. Also my perfectionism takes a lot of joy out of life. It means that unless it’s perfect I’m not happy, and the kicker is that it most likely 9 times out of 10 it isn’t going to be perfect. That’s a pretty sad way to live honestly. Add to the perfectionism the desire to always have a plan makes life pretty difficult as things more often than not don’t go according to the plan. Reading through…

    Your Wife Should Not Be Outserving You

    ByTim Nolte
    This is not about having a competition with your wife on serving, it’s about taking a hard look at yourself as a husband and asking yourself what kind of leader are you. We live in a world where leadership, and men, are expected to be authoritative and followed because of their authority. Jesus’ picture of a leader is a stark contrast to the world’s idea. And God’s design and calling for a husband is a daily challenge that I doubt many of us even come close to living up to. Marriage is work, and being the kind of husband, and father, God calls us to be should be our highest priority. “If you are fulfilling Jesus’ word that the one who wants to be the…

  2. Galatians 5:17 “The old sinful nature loves to do evil, which is just opposite from what the Holy Spirit wants. And the Spirit gives us desires that are opposite from what the sinful nature desires. These two forces are constantly fighting each other, and your choices are never free from this conflict. ”

    Welcome to the Christian life Tim, if anything be encouraged because all of this means that Satan understands you are a threat to His plan… and thats a good thing.
