Phone Blog: Confirmation

September 21, 2008 - Sunday

Current mood: hopeful
Category: Life
Today I received confirmation about Texas. I would be happy had it not come in such a lame package. I wish I could believe it was concern that brought about the confirmation, but the words, tone, and delivery sent a different message. Because of that, confirmation seems bittersweet. It is confirmation nonetheless, so I can at least be thankful. Oh to be done with certain things for a while, it will be a good thing. I need verbal combat training! Six weeks... LIVING FOR TODAY, LOOKING FORWARD TO TOMORROW.

Expectation and Frustration...

November 4, 2008 - Tuesday Expectation and Frustration... Current mood: contemplative Category: Life I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait ...

Biggest Loser Casting Call

Alert! This is a long one. It doesn’t take much to excite me these days, and as a rule I am, for the most part, easy to please. I try not to ask for too much, expect even less than I ask for, and generally try to be thankful for what I am given. Every once in a while, however, something really big or really cool comes along, and I psyche myself up for the event and against my better judgment I hope… I pray… I yearn… for something that will be truly life changing. When will I learn? Okay, okay, before I go into trashing mode, I will admit that there were good things about the day. Good company can turn around the most undesirable situations, and I had the best company you could ask for. Laugh if you like, but I have found that most of the people I know who have a lot of… um… well, “personal insulation” on them almost always have a lot of fun as well, especially when they are amongst friends. S and K are two very funny, very supportive friends who, along with a few kind strangers, litera...

How Cool is God?

Okay, so I promise I'm not manic depressive or bi-polar: whatever the current terminology may respectfully be. Yes, I realize I was just on here a few hours ago, I haven't yet been to sleep. (I'm trying to get my circadian rhythm back in sync.) I was going to take a little nap but I feared getting too far into R.E.M. sleep and not being able to wake up at a decent hour - thus keeping me out of sync for another day. But! I did do my journaling at 4:30 this morning, and guess what happened? Last night when I went out for my drive I was listening to KLove and heard some really uplifting and thought provoking songs. One of the songs was: "Everlasting God" written by Benton Brown and performed by Lincoln Brewster. I'd heard the song plenty of times but I don't think I'd ever heard the version by LB with his son reciting Isaiah 40:28-31 at the end. The message of the song and verse was awesome - it totally "fit" where I was... AM... in life right n...
