I ran across these thoughts while in church a few weeks ago, Pastor Todd was preaching through Nehemiah 9 on the topic of confession, and this post really isn’t connected to that sermon at all. But here I am writing about it anyway, and hopefully causing a chain reaction of thought to prompt a change…

the many things that I have come up with and written down for you all to enjoy or despise . . . .
musings on water….
So I was sitting in the pool last night, about midnight, and I got to thinking about how much my life is similar to a swimmer in a swimming pool. It was dark, and the lights were casting some really cool shadows/lines on the bottom of the pool. The waves were beautiful! I noticed that as I…
psalm 66
Psalm 66 1 Shout for joy to God, all the earth; 2 sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise! 3 Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies come cringing to you. 4 All the earth worships you and sings praises to you; they sing…
Believing in Secret?
Hey guys, I know things have been busy, and I havent written very much recently, but I wanted to share this book with you. I picked it up at The Archives when Jennica and I went down there a couple of weeks ago, and I started reading it shortly afterwards. I am just finishing it this…
timing
I guess its been a really long time since I posted last, and I really cant point to any ONE thing as causing that. It really just boils down to the simple fact that when I have time to write, I dont have the ideas; and when I have an idea to blog about, I…
Sunday morning….
Its early, very early. So early on this morning that even I shouldnt be awake, but I am. And its not even bad enough that I am awake, but I am also sitting in my car waiting for another party to show up. My phone goes off, a text. They are going to be late.…
God’s timing . . .
God’s timing IS perfect, just cant say that I always understand that very well. A week ago Saturday was a long emotion filled day, for several reasons I wont go into here, and a few that I will. Started off the day bright and way to early with a bunch of photos for Luke and…
what is it?
So there has been a few things floating around in my head for a while and its about time I sat down and got one of them out and into a form that will be easier to share then the muddled up mess of my brain. For me it has always been a challenge to…
all the books I’ve read in the last year or so . . . since graduation last May . . .
So I thought that I would try to keep track of the books that I have been working through, partly to keep track so I can work on getting better, and partly just to see how many I really am able to get through in a years time. So here they are, in no particular…
ten years and counting now . . .
So . . . today marks the 10th anniversary of a great incident in my life. Something so big that it has left a mark on me to this day. 10 years ago, I was pinched between a large truck and a barn. I had been just helping a neighbor with some chores, he…
so, there was this guy . . .
So, there was this guy . . . I was walking from the parking lot this morning at church, to the sanctuary for second service (I know, I know, I know . . . I SHOULD have been at first and then popped into a Sunday School class, but I didnt, so get over it),…
overwhelmed . . . and broken . . .
In the last day or two I have been able to wrap up a few books I was working on, and the work that I now face is just a bit overwhelming. The titles that I was reading boil down to a single truth. Looking at different aspects of the Christian’s walk, it ALL comes…
