God is Awesome, of Course…Today Life is Grand Too!

Ok, so today was a pretty excellent day. It’s amazing that God can be so good to us despite our downfalls. Well, this morning I found out something pretty crazy. One of my matches on eHarmony just happens to be someone that I at least know of. I can’t recall actually meeting her at anytime. The thing of it is that I have worked with her sister. And I know her Dad. She’s not a paying member of eHarmony but that’s just fine. We’ve already started to chat a little on MSN. I don’t know where this will lead if anywhere. I have no expectations but I’m looking forward to getting to know her. I already know enough about her that I know I’m looking forward to getting to know her better. She’s going to be in a production of the musical Grease this weekend at Concordia University. I’m actually considering this. I have no real plans, and I’d love to go see a musical. We’ll see I guess the days would be either Friday or Sunday. Well we’ll see.

Another great thing today was youth group. I decided to lead a few songs totally unplugged. It was great as everyone there was totally into singing. We had a good time of discussion when Andrew led tonight. Oh, and also I was able to communicate to the small group leaders tonight about something that God placed on my heart to share. When we got into it, our small group was excellent. I really hope the guys got what they needed from tonight. We actually decided to start meeting Mondays at 6:30 am at Perkins for a time to study God’s Word. This is going to be a great way to start of the week I think. I’m trusting God to bless this time and guide me as I lead it. I’m going to be doing some learnin’ here too, which I’m really looking forward to. This is something I’ve thought about doing for some time now. I had the benfit of having a youth leader (Doug Bruce) that took the time to do this with me when I was in high school. It had a huge impact on my life.

Well, it’s late once again…I want to get a little reading in before I ge to bed. I knew I shouldn’t have gotten on to IM…oh well it was all good. Chow for now!

    Well, I know it’s been awhile since my last little updated, but that’s the way it goes sometimes. Vanessa & I have been having a great time with our dance class. It’s so great to have someone to dance with, as I’ve wanted to get into dance for a long time. We haven’t been up to a whole lot over the past couple of weeks because Vanessa got sick and then had some back problems. I feel so bad for her, I wish that I could make her all better but only time and rest help to overcome those things. I’ve tried to help her out as much as I can. I guess there is a part of me that just wants to take care…

    Putting Wood On The Fire

    ByTim Nolte
    Put more wood into the fire by accompanying your partner to his/her favourite place. – Day 1, Refresh Your Marriage In 31 Days I can definitely see that the busyness of life makes it more challenging to keep the “wood fires burning” of marriage. Marriage takes work and especially intentional action to keep plain selfishness at bay. If we would keep our focus on serving in our marriage then love would be more readily felt. I need to plan to be intentional about this each day.

    Quick…New Calendar

    ByTim Nolte
    Thx Google for all the neat tools they keep pumping out. I’m now using Google Calendar slightly integrated into my blog. Should work ok. I’m feeling the itch to get back into blogging and podcasting…we’ll see what the schedule brings. I’m also thinking it might be time for a WordPress upgrade and site redesign/makeover. I may even go so far as bridge the gap between my blog site on the Tim blog. Perhaps I’ll bring the designs of the two inline with each other and distribute the content logically between them as well. We’ll see what I feel like doing, let alone have time for. I’ve been feeling for some time that my blog site really kind of got out of hand with so much…

  • Warning: Google Video Not Safe

    ByTim Nolte
    So, I just wanted to post this out there to warn anyone that I know. I decided to check out what was new with Google Video and took a look by the Top 100 list. To my horror I found that, at least by the description, that Google Video is not safe from a content perspective. The top videos had some sort of sexual or perhaps even pornographic description. One nice thing is that Google does provide a way to report a movie because of this type of issue, however there still isn’t any safe way to browse Google Video. They even list in their FAQ that they dont’ have SafeSearch working yet for Google Video. This is a huge mistake on their part I…

  1. Hey, that’s where I go to school. I know who you’re talking about too and also know her sister, having worked with her at camp. I don’t really know her though but see her on campus quite a bit (very small school).
