Something I wrote during morning Day!
Collapsed Lung? No Worries I have plenty in the storehouse
Cancer? I can take that, I paid for it...
Worried about not having enough? I fed 5,000
Lost Job? I have plans
Does it all seem too big to bare? I'm bigger than all these things.
Some hard times are hitting my family BUT God is bigger than all of it...Finding a job for you is like picking dirt from your finger nail.....LOL it's pretty simple.
Life is worry-free when I realized simply this....God is taking care of it....all of it!
When I say I am a Christian...
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin'."
I'm whispering "I was lost,
Now I'm found and forgiven."
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need Christ to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
And need His strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
And need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
But, God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain.
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner
Who received God's good grace, somehow!
I am no better than anyone else. I am nothing apart from the grace of God. In Him I am a new creation. In Him I can walk forward with power, purpose, and destiny. Romans 8:1 says, "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Please realize that no matter your past, God's desire is to forgive you and help you to move forward and be who you were created to be.
Cowboy Excuses
Top Dallas Cowboy Excuses (for losing 1995 NFC Championship)
From David Letterman - Tuesday, January 17, 1995
Afraid to play in Super Bowl against anyone but the Bills.
Distracted by delicious smell of barbecue coming from John Madden’s announce booth.
Trying to make one of Marv Albert’s blooper reels.
Our friends on New York Jets convinced us: “Winning’s no big deal.”
Worried sick about Letterman botching the Academy Awards.
Those big guys on other team kept trying to knock us down.
Who needs all the pressure of a Super Bowl? Not us, Lonnie!
What a time to notice, them cheerleader outfits is skimpy!
Tired of going to Disneyland.
New to Football
A guy took his girlfriend to her first football game. Afterward he asked her how she liked the game.
“I liked it, but I couldn’t understand why they were killing each other for 25 cents, ” she said.
“What do you mean?” he asked.
“Well, everyone kept yelling, ‘Get the quarter back!’”

I love Masters Commission.....it's been a very defining part of my life and though the people I stand next to are not perfect, nor am I...it's been a good year. Of course there are always things we look back on and want to change...maybe its a situation...who knows! But DMC has been good even with that! Friendships were made and lost...Lives were brightened a little....I have friends that will probably be in my wedding and others will do sound or something and others may not be around, but even so we had some good times, good talks, and crying was involved if you were around me! LOL
So we've been in Minnesota this week, it was so much fun!!! so first funny story....We did the Everything Human Video and I got busted in the nose by Greg.....it was awesome!!! I hit still though but not broken!!! Next thing we had a Rave of Praise for Jesus...it was the most amazing thing I've ever done in my life....I promise no drugs involved!!!! LOL anyways it's only a week and a half until graduation!!! It's a bittersweet thing! My mom doesn't get to come but hopefully I'll get to see her soon!!! I may get to come home for a week in August!!! But it's not a sure thing!!!
Is right to think a leader is wrong(but still respect them)? What if leaders disappoint you? What if Leaders break the same rules that you are following? What if you think a leader is on a power trip?
Don't get me wrong I love my leaders but I've realized that they are very human and are still learning. I can't say shut up because it's not nice, though a leader says it all the time....I could be mad, really mad actually but I chose to better myself instead. Leaders have broken rules in my life and I've seen them do some stupid things.....But they still impacted my life in some way. I'm not even talking about MC life, it's real life.....everyday life in the real world.
It's the end of the year and the first years are talking about being leaders and it's cool....blah blah blah but it's not all about power and leading the first years.....who cares!!!! I just want everyone on the team to enjoy their year. I want it to be great! and if that means scrubbing the floors for hours, having classes, whatever! I'll do it....my heart is for the people coming in, I love them and I want them to have a great year....(please my heart on this, I just want the TEAM the FAMILY to be well.)
I declare a great year with a year of singleness and enjoying it, no emo relationships!(sorry Sharayah...just kidding) well that's it now....
Abortion......what are your beliefs......is it wrong, is it right? Is it ok in some situations?
I think its wrong...I know it's wrong.....someone made a comment about maybe if a teen gets pregnant and she is completely unprepared and not mature enough to have one, then maybe it's an option she should look at.....but my mom was a teen mom and I don't think she was prepared at all to have kids and I'm sure she regretted started having kids so young. But she bucked up and became ready for the baby being created within her. If she took that advice then I would be born, my brothers wouldn't be born. I can't accept that argument because I would be saying you should have gotten rid of "the problem" you weren't mature enough to handle. I turned out pretty well, for someone who had children so young and she did a great job. I write this with tears in my eyes.....Life is life, no matter how small.
Well, I hope this doesn't offend to many, but it's the truth....
What's St. Patty's Day?
St Patrick is known as the patron saint of Ireland. True, he was not a born Irish.
But he has become an integral part of the Irish heritage, mostly through
his service across Ireland of the 5th century.
Patrick was born in the later half of the 4th century AD.
There are differing views about the exact year and place of his birth.
According to one school of opinion, he was born about 390 A.D.,
while the other school says it is about 373 AD. Again, his birth place
is said to be in either Scotland or Roman England.
His real name was probably Maewyn Succat.
Though Patricius was his Romanicized name,
he was later came to be familiar as Patrick.Patrick was the son of Calpurnius, a Roman-British army officer.
He was growing up as naturally as other kids in Britain. However, one day
a band of pirates landed in south Wales and kidnapped this boy
along with many others. Then they sold him into slavery in Ireland.
The was there for 6 years, mostly imprisoned.
This was when changes came to him. He dreamed of having seen God.
Legend says, he was then dictated by God to escape with a getaway ship.
Finally, he did escape and went to Britain. And then to France.
There he joined a monastery and studied under St. Germain,
the bishop of Auxerre. He spent around 12 years in training.
And when he became a bishop he dreamed that the Irish were calling him
back to Ireland to tell them about God.
The Confessio, Patrick's spiritual autobiography, is the most important
document regarding this. It tells of a dream after his return to Britain,
in which one Victoricus delivered him a letter headed "The Voice of the Irish."
So he set out for Ireland with the Pope's blessings. There he converted
the Gaelic Irish, who were then mostly Pagans, to Christianity. He was
confident in the Lord, he journeyed far and wide, baptizing and confirming
with untiring zeal. And, in a diplomatic fashion he brought gifts to
a kinglet here and a lawgiver there,but accepted none from any.
Indeed, Patrick was quite successful at winning converts.
Through active preaching, he made important converts even
among the royal families. And this fact upset the Celtic Druids.
Patrick was arrested several times,but escaped each time.
For 20 years he had traveled throughout Ireland,
establishing monasteries across the country.
He also set up schools and churches
which would aid him in his conversion.
He developed a native clergy,
fostered the growth of monasticism,
established dioceses, and held church councils
Thanksgiving?
Columbus was actually a Missionary!!!! Sailing a new land to tell people about Jesus!
Recent surveys of U.S. adults indicate that around 20% of Americans hold at least some New Age beliefs.[20]
Those who categorize themselves as New Age followers have a diverse set of beliefs that differ widely across individuals, groups and locations;[1][2] an individual identified with New Age thinking may subscribe to one, some or all of these.
- Philosophy and Cosmology
- Theism : There is a pantheistic idea of God, and that God can be understood in many ways, including through the form of a Goddess or through forms of polytheism.[citation needed]
- Afterlife : Consciousness persists after death as life in different forms; the afterlife exists for further learning through the form of a spirit, reincarnation and/or near-death experiences.[21]
- Astrology : There is commonly a belief in astrology, horoscopes and the zodiac.[citation needed]
- Teleology : There is a belief that there is a purpose to life. This includes a belief in synchronicity - that coincidences have a spiritual meaning, and contain spiritual lessons to teach those that are open to them. Everything is universally connected through God, participating in the same energy[22] There is a cosmic goal and a belief that all entities are (knowingly or unknowingly) cooperating towards this goal. Interpersonal relationships are opportunities to learn about one's self and relationships are destined to be repeated until they are healthy.[citation needed]
- Psychic energy : Certain geographic locations emanate psychic energy, sometimes through the form of ley lines and such places (e.g. Stonehenge) were considered sacred in "pagan" religions throughout the world.[23]
- Approach to religion and science
- Eclectic spirituality : Every person should follow their own individual path to spirituality, and not follow dogma. Different religions and philosophies from across the world offer different practises that can be adopted by people in their search.[citation needed]
- Religious plurality : There exists a common core within all religions which renders dogma and religious identity irrelevant.[citation needed]
- Anti-Patriarchy : Feminine forms of spirituality, including feminine images of the divine, such as the female Aeon Sophia in Gnosticism, are deprecated by patriarchal religions.[2]
- Science : Western science neglects alternative therapies like parapsychology, meditation, and holistic health to its detriment.[2] However, science and spirituality are ultimately harmonious. New discoveries in science, e.g. evolution and quantum mechanics, when rightly understood, point to spiritual principles.[24]
