beauty in the beast

this evening, I paused at the kithen window. I paused, because there were big soft slow moving snow flakes falling from the sky. they gently blanketed the ground, giving me a feeling of warmth, dispite the cold right outside my door. If we had not sinned, do you think there still would have been snow?, or is there more glory for God in the seemedly cold harsh sin filled world that we chose? Is there beauty in the beast?

that was a really cool and profound observation. you really caused me to stop and think! one of the "divine paradoxes" in life is that because of the grace of Jesus Christ, there is "beauty in the beast".

awesome.

camp fires

why is it that when there is a camp fire, I can't seem to stop staring into the flame? I always wonder that every Autumn when it's time to build camp fires and roast marshmallows, and hot dogs. It is my favorite time of the year though, and I get exited and lonely and peaceful and restless all at the same time. I get exited to see the leaves turn colors, and for the temperature to be cooler, I get lonely and long to share the season with someone, that someone being a husband. At the same time I find myself feeling a sense of peace, and calm, and at other times I feel restless, a longing for a new adventure. All of these thoughts went through my mind this evening as I sat next to the fire, with the brother and sister hood of the fellowship of the bride singing songs laughing, throwing marshmallow it was great fun. Thank you Father for the joy there is in being a part of your family.

wounded hearts

This weekend God spoke to my heart through my housemates, and through some ideas from Dr. Dan B.Allender and his book The wounded Heart, it was about the truth of a people who are wounded, and out of our wound we wound others. Part of our story of redemption is the wounds we have suffered, or inflicted along the way. To avoid the truth of those wounds, is to not tell the whole story of grace, and it doesn't allow us to be real with one another, or heal. As Christ's people lets be a people who really enters into the wounds that have been inflicted by the sin in our world with one another. Let's listen to each others real stories, and enter in with our brothers and sisters. I think that God has called us to that, I think this, because he entered into the pain of this world with us in the life of Jesus Christ. Thank you father for your presents all the time, thank you. Amen.

Tom Boy

To Romance a Tom boy is quite the feet, and to be honest there are few gents to do it. You should probably be stright forward with her for she doesn't like having to try and figure it out in her head infact it's quite dangeros to let her do so. In this way she is very much a girly girl. For the most part of her life she is very aware of this part in her, in fact she tryies with all her might to fight it, this battle though, can not be won by her strangth. Again and again she will be pounded, till she is a pile of dust on the ground. If you are a man of adventure, or like to live somewhat by the seat of your pants, she will most likely be drawn to you. If you like her, the best way to romance her is to sweep her up into your adventures, and share with her your stories. Don't forget to ask her about her's, and listen well, for she will do as well for you...
