Finally I get a chance to update!  Right now I'm sitting in registration at the Bible college, taking the day off from work.  I'm here, once again, taking pictures for the Bible college.  This will be my first senior year, first of two.  I'm praying about next summer, what I will do for my missions and Biblical studies practicum.  Should I do them ( Read more... )

Wow it has been ages since I've posted on here, or posted any pictures.  In a nutshell, I've been working, and also driving (I have my drivers license now) so I don't have to get rides everywhere I go.  This weekend I'll be taking pictures at a wedding as an official wedding photographer.  It'll be the first time I'm doing it.  I've taken pictures ( Read more... )

Here's another thought for you.  Job 1:21 Job says, "Naked I entered the womb, and naked I shall return.  The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away..."  Many times we find ourselves getting something in our lives that makes us very happy.  We thank God for it every time we pray. It could be a car.  It could be a friend, or a loved one.  I could ( Read more... )

Forgiveness takes sacrifice. Let's say I'm wronged by someone, and in the flesh I say I forgive them.  Then later on, I remember that person, or I see that person again.  Then the first thing that comes to my mind is what they did to me.  I look at them imputing their sin to them.  I tell myself, "What a jerk that person was.  Man, they were such a ( Read more... )

Today, right now, all things are possible.  Today, this very minute, God's abundant grace is available to me.  Right now is reality.  The past cannot be changed, it can only be forgotten.  The future doesn't exist yet, except in the mind of God. So for me to live in anxiety or guilt is a complete waste of time.  Right now grace is real.  Reality is ( Read more... )

Well, it's been a while since I've posted.  A lot has happened, and I won't go too much into it. Sorry that I haven't posted much lately, or posted any pictures for that matter.  I've been working and going to church, outreach, and Bible studies.  I had a great time with graduation weekend, and I have plenty of pictures from the Grace Hour Banquet ( Read more... )

It's amazing how easy it is to lose sight of the real issues of life.  It's amazing how far down in the pit of despair we allow ourselves to go before we open our hardened hearing to the relentless voice of God's love.  It's amazing how long we can try to please God without faith, or follow God without His life.  It's amazing how much we can let ( Read more... )

Sorry it's been so long since I last posted.  I've been working night and day on the yearbook.  I practically sat in the computer room all Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (alone most of the time) to get the yearbook done.  Well I was able to finish it around 3:30 this morning, and got it to Sue May in the print shop at 9.  So I'm running right now on ( Read more... )

Oh my Lord, it just did it again.  I typed out this whole thing on the Shane and Shane concert, pictures and everything, and my computer decided to delete it all.   Well anyway, I'm not going to type all that again any time tonight. Please pray for me as I'm trying to get the yearbook done by the end of next week. Pray that God would give me peace ( Read more... )
