Not Much Happening in My Turf

Not much is happening over here. I get Thursday and Friday off for Fall Break. After dinner today, I wrestled with Russ on the lawn. When we first went out, it was cold, but shortly after we were both sweating. So actually, the temperature was just right. My parents will visit me for one day… Read More »

Fumbling Again and Again?

Some of my friends talk about all the mistakes they’ve made in life. I can sense a spirit of regret and shame. For example; maybe they’ve messed up a relationship or something else. But friends… let’s remember to be optimistic! Please don’t talk as if you are expecting to wake up tomorrow morning only to… Read More »

Funeral Party

This weekend, I went home for my cousin’s funeral. I cried tears of joy and a little bit of sorrow during singspiration. It was really exciting to see Ben lead worship and bring us back to the cross with songs like “When I Survey the Wonderous Cross” and “Blessed Be the Name.” Glory to God.… Read More »

Blah!!

I talked to Dr. Jewell today. It seems his mind is already made up. They want to bill me for the stolen computer. =( This policy only hurts the honest student that reports a crime. I plan to graduate, so do I really need to pay for “two” computers by the time I graduate? The… Read More »

Phone call

My friend Jacob, from the Sovereign Grace in Fairfax, called me up. It was really cool to talk to him again. We were able to talk about God’s goodness and share prayer requests. I was re-reminded of God’s grace. Thanks Jacob!

New Life

We opened up with a game of spoons. Then we did our Bible study. The group seems to be open to “spiritual” things.… Read More »

Friday-Saturday

Yesterday, (Friday) I went running with Dave and Russel. It felt great to run. The weather was just right and I had never taken that route before. We went down the road parallel to Wolf Creek, past Covenant OPC. Its really tranquil back there. At 5ish, we headed back to Lincoln, but joined some random… Read More »

Cool!

– Next weekend I will be going home for my cousin’s funeral. God is faithful. He has made it really easy for me to plan my return. – I got a good grade back for my 6 credit Washington D.C. Summer internship. – I was accepted into a Polital Science Honorary named Pi Sigma Alpha.

Contentment

God has been teaching me to be content. (Not to say that I am a master of it now… far from it. I can not feign humility.) “I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.” – Philippians 4:11 It is so easy to think of the bad things that have happened… Read More »
