A Little Life Update…

Well, I have to say that life is still kind of up and down for me. I’m beginning to realize that being busy is probably in my nature. As I think back to my high school and college days, I remember being a pretty active guy. And to think I have shy tendencies, lol. I would have to say I’m far from being the guy in the middle, I’m the guy that is at both extremes at the same time. What and interesting combination that brings, lol.

I’m finding it nice to pretty much have all my projects for people done. I’ve got another that will be starting, a missionary promo, but I don’t expect that to tak too much time. My big project, that I’m having a lot of fun with, is the whole podcast thing. I’ve gotten some encouraging and help feedback from people. I really can’t wait to be joining the podcasting community. I don’t really know how large my listenership will really even be. I guess I’m really hoping that it starts to expand beyond just the people I know. It’ll mostly start there, but I really want this to me another ministry tool. Time and again I get a sense of calling to bring Christ into the online world. I really believe that the online world is so much farker than we even realize. The worst of it all is that our young people and living online more and more. I just hope I can be used by God to bring a little glimmer of light to that world.

Well, tonight was a youth group night once again. It was a rather strange night. Everyone seemed to be a bit rowdy and not all there. The music went so-so, I always have such high expectations for the music. I just let it go and hope that God can still use it. I wouldn’t ever claim to be a great, or even good, praise team leader. I’m just making myself available to God.

Well, in a little over a week, I head to the Twin Cities to spend a weekend with Vanessa. I haven’t talked about her much, if at all really. Neither of us really knows where things may head, if anywhere really. The distance has been a concern for me, as most of you might have guessed. At this point and time my primary focus is on God’s leading, for my entire life not just with Vanessa. Her and I have talked about this, and I think she is thinking in those terms too now. I think was is most hard is that both of us would like to get to know each other much better and see if there is a shot here for something more, but it’s a little hard to actually spend time hanging out. I know that God has a plan for all of this, and so long as we continue to be focusing on Him, He’ll reveal things as we go. Like I’ve hear it said many times, His timing is not always our timing.

Well, I’m calling it a night. I kind of felt a bit behind in the blogging. One slight issue I have is that I’ve actually got like 3 blogs to keep up with now. There is this one, a second one that Vanessa and I are using to kind of share thoughts with each other, and then there’s the podcast/blog. This may not allow for me to post eveyday to all of them, however, I’m hoping to get into a bit more regular blog posts. There may even be a little bit of cross-posting that’ll happen too I suppose. Till later!

    When God Moves…

    Well, I have a feeling if I just let things start to fly this post might get rather lengthy. Hmm, hold on to your hat. 🙂 So today was sort of a struggle for me. The part of my job that I like the least is having to sit at a computer and correct people’s addresses, or add them to a mailing list, yuck. I’m finding I’ve become bored with the whole thought of doing data entry. The things I always like about computers and technology in general are making them do cool new things. Also not just do cool things, but things that can help people better accomplish their work. Well, I’m at a loss to know any better, or cool, way to get…

    My Long Weekend…

    So it’s been a few days since my last post. When things get busy I find it hard to get them in. Things have been kind of crazy. I just noticed too that my last real blog post was Tuesday. Wednesdays always get busy and late, actually I ended up going over to John & Caristy’s after youth group again. It’s good for me to be apart of some social things, especially with people my own age. So let’s recap a little. Wednesday youth group was good. Joel & Liz Christensen gave a talk about their work in China. It was a little different than what they talked about on Sunday wo that was good. With the craziness of the week I didn’t do music,…
  • Days of Dancing

    I happy to say that the dancing seems to be going really well. We had our first class last night and we even got a little practice in tonight. Actually, funny enough Vanessa gave me a call tonight right as I was trying to work out some of the dance moves myself. She came over to my place to join me in some practicing. We had so much fun just working on the steps and laughing with each other. I really can’t help but smile as I look into Vanessa eyes as I lead her while we dance. So the verdict comes in, a German man & a Dutch woman can dance together. 😉 Things have been quite crazy as of late. Last week starting…

    John Confirms Jesus

    (John 1:29-34) So, John didn’t know Jesus really, other than what God had revealed to him. However, the key things that God revealed to him was how he would recognize who Jesus was. We see here that Jesus came to John to be baptized. Even though, as far as John was concerned, he wasn’t worthy to baptize Jesus that is what Jesus required of him. He did this and then John saw first hand the Holy Spirit come down onto Jesus, and this was exactly what God had told John would happen. At that point John had no doubt at all that this was Jesus. He told everyone what he had been told and experienced.
