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!

    In The Beginning

    (John 1:1-14) – John starts out describing a little about what the beginning was like. The Word was another name given to Jesus. It’s interesting that John starts out this way. It is very clear that the importance is placed on this description to setup the rest of the book. Jesus claimed he was God, was equal with God. The very fact that he also had the name of the Word and that these verses explain exactly was Jesus claimed is not insignificant. Jesus Christ always was and is equal to God the Father & God the Holy Spirit. John 1:12, this is a very popular verse. It explains the truth that all those that believe in Christ and follow Him become apart of God’s…
  • The Engagement…

    So I know that I’d let everyone know how the engagement happened so here it is. It’s not some super amazing thing. I really wish I could have made it a super magical experience but I just didn’t get there. I planned out a full day of activities together starting with breakfast. I was wanting to include Vanessa’s parents in on the breakfast but they couldn’t make it. Before I got to her place to take her to breakfast I made a quick stop over to the flower shop to get a rose for her. My plan was to use it later in the day. We headed over to a restaurant called Wolfgang’s. It’s located in downtown Grand Rapids I believe. This place has the…
  • Listening to Your Children

    How often are we β€œtoo busy” to listen to our children? How often do we let our personal agendas, attitudes, or being tired let us get frustrated and angry with our children? I’m sure that we all have our moments. And I’m pretty sure we’ve all had to deal with frustrating people in our lives, other than our children. If we want to have a relationship with our children that has a solid foundation then we need to do more but listening and curb the frustration and anger. Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. – James 1:19 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/jas.1.19.NLT
  • Been A Long Time

    I haven’t posted on here for so long I’m sure no one is following me anymore. It’s crazy to think that there was a time when I was posting like everyday, sometimes twice. Things are of course different now. I think the thing is that when I was posting before it was all about what was going on in my life. Now my life is not just me but my wife also. I think if I put myself out here, I’m taking her along with me, and I don’t want that. The other problem seems to be finding the time. There are just a lot more important things, like my wife, than blogging. I do try to post little updates on my Facebook or Twitter,…
  • First Work Morning, in the New Place…

    So really yesterday was my first morning waking up in my new home, however this is the first morning that my work morning routine begins to take shape (at least until we return from our honeymoon). I’m going to have to keep this short for now. These past couple of weeks, and now this week, have been amazing for my morning devotions. I struggled at the beginning of the year to want to go through one of the devotionals I had because I had already been through it a couple years ago. The amazing thing is over the course of the last couple of weeks, and now this one, the devotional readings have all been about marriage. This week talks about life after the honeymoon,…
  • I Hear Wedding Bells…It’s Official!

    Just wanted to let all of those that might be cruising to see what I’m up to that I am engaged! That’s right, there is a woman out there (Vanessa πŸ˜‰ ) that would have me. πŸ˜€ We had an amazing day together, during our dinner I popped the question. It’s way late now so I’m not going to stay up to give all of the details, I’ll give the skinny tomorrow sometime. I can’t wait for you all to meet my fiancee!

  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.
