when you thought it was all over, here i am again

Well let me think, what do y'all wanna know about. I'm sure there is plenty of things to talk about. Just gotta figure out what.

I suppose a big thing would be that of would be our last football game of the season. I played, and it was a blast. I forgot how much I love laying people out. I had a decent game I suppose, 6 or 7 tackles, 2 for a loss and a forced fumble. We lost the game, but I'll be danged if it wasn't the toughest game we've ever played. 14-12 was the final score. We kinda lost it within the last 4 minutes of the game when our QB threw an interception. However, it was a huge way in how we set that up. We kicked the ball off to them after our score with like 6 minutes left in the game and they return it to the 50, needless to say I wasn't happy about that, being the defensive coordinator and all. They start driving, running it mostly to waste the clock. Then they give it to the fullback on third and short and he comes up right in my whole, we hit pretty hard and I felt that hit until like Wednesday in my neck and stuff. I stood him up though, he out weighed me by like 30 or 40 pounds, other people jump on and I see the ball and I strip it. I felt that ball in my arms and all I thought was touchdown. Needless to say we got the ball back and it ended up being out last drive and we lost the game. It was crazy, it was the best game I've ever played.
On top of all that I've had a lot of school work to do. Today I had a group project and paper due, and tomorrow I have another group project due. School work has been my life this semester, I just hope I make some good grades or something. Otherwise it's all for naught and I seriously need to bring up my GPA.
So I've been doing a lot of thinking lately, as always. So, I'm a junior in college, and I've had one girlfriend my whole life, and once you get out of college, dating prospects drop off...fast. Because everyone lives all over the place and you have like full time jobs. Thus I'm thinking I need to get on the ball about finding a girl to really go after, for like serious. The whole long term marriage thing. I have a girl in mind, but she's far away, in California, yeah I know, I pick em. Though its weird, so many girls here at college are nice girls and everything, they are just amazingly immature. It's like they really want that long term deal, but they never cease to go for the next best thing. They still aren't out of that whole I like you so we'll date and see what happens mentality. I mean it just doesn't work like that, perhaps it can, but then ur lucky. I'm the kinda guy that if I don't know you well enough, then I don't date you. I would much rather know the certain qualities a girl has to know whether or not shes worth going for. What really stinks is when you find the girl that you realize is top notch, she's got it all together, got a strong Faith, knows what she wants in a guy, a fantastic personality, and on top of that is gorgeous. However, when you're around her it's just weird. I mean that vague, but I just feel as if she either doesn't know how to act around me or I around her, or both. It just creates for long this sense of desire but awkwardness. Needless to say I'm not trying to make this whole relationship bigger than it is, but the thought plays in your mind. I suppose as long as I find some girls out there I deem worth it, then I'm good. The one I'd go for would probably be younger than me anyways.

Next thinking, enough about relationships, this is about theology. So a ruler can only rule when he is smarter than his subjects. He can go about this by two ways, he doesn't educate them, or he convinces them that their education doesn't suffice or amount to counter the knowledge that he has. Most dictators rulers and heck even our presidency go about it by this way. Dictators just don't educate the people, however the american presidency convinces us, or most, me at least, that our knowledge doesn't suffice to counter their position. Granted I know nothing about the intertwining world politics, or politics in general. Now would I know how to get to the position of the presidency, there's no way I could do it. Funny how God also works like this. This is the second part of Luther's two sides of God, the revealed side, which is that of the Bible, and the unrevealed side which is that of this and say predestination. God rules us, strong words I know, by convincing us that our intelligence is not enough. Now I'll be danged if I am to argue with that, I am convinced to say in the least. God has that whole perfection omnipresence and omniscience thing going for him. Now if I convinced myself that I knew, God would no longer control me, along the lines of at least admitting to it. Where as he would still control me in a sense. However in such a control it makes God seem almost tryannical, the fact of this other side to God that already knows, is already at the happening of the end. That since he is there as he is here and there is no other here than with what we have, there must not be another there, as in future, there is only one. Thus it is pretty much set in stone that what happens is to happen, that who goes to hell were always meant to go to hell, and the same with heaven. It's the darkside of God that we don't understand, and in essence never will, we simply aren't where God is. It's scary, and as Luther put it, it's not the side of God that we are to focus on, it is not meant to be. It is the side of Him that has been revealed, but I can;t help looking at it everynow and then. But the Bible, which is more so of a love story or pursuit is just happier and warmer.
