Not for the sake of updates
2 min read
Well, it's usually a bad idea to start this off lying to you, so sorry for that.
This is really just for the sake of an update.
Nothing much happening here, I'm actually arting quite frequently, even if almost none of it makes it here.
Personally, this and that's been going down. I have a wobsite, so that's good. But it's painfully unstyled, and basically redirects you to here. So that's bad.
I still have a job (or two), and both of them are fairly easy, and pay well enough, so that's good.
And my car recently decided to take a break, and the alternator went like this: 'kaput' so that's bad.
But I recently got my beta invite to Google voice, and it's amazing, so that's good.
My roommate's moving out, so I'm looking for a replacement. Plenty of candidates, but so far no one's ponied up the dough, so that's bad.
My aunt and uncle are popping in for a visit and bringing food with them, so that's a double-fine.
No car has trickled down into not being able to attend church 14 miles away, so that's bad.
Which has meant finding a closer replacement, and the new place is a different denomination, different pastor, so for the sake of decentralization and not only getting "one dude's take on The Word", that's good.
I don't like walking, so that's bad.
But I have been getting more exercise then usual, so that's good.
But I don't enjoy getting mugged either, so that's bad.
But hey, God is good, and that's great.
So I'm still here, I'm still kicking, and God is still good, despite whatever relative and passing circumstances have befallen me.
So for that sake of an update, nothing much going on here.

Almost a repost

So I was reading this bit by Sly-The-Foxx about watching what we say, and thought it served as a great reminder that what we say actually affects others.
Especially as Christians, we should be above reproach in every aspect we can, in this and every other way.
Just thought I'd share.

Just Another Thought

Jesus' ability to see the future is not amazing because He knew what was coming next, but that He knew what was coming after that.
When he healed the sick and lame, when He washed his disciple's feet, Jesus knew that it would be these people who would call for His blood, this man that would betray Him to the enemy.
That sucks.
But if you look beyond that, when the dust cleared, the rock was rolled away, and He said His final goodbyes again, He went back to Heaven.
That rocks.
If we can sit down, and realize that we all came from God, and will soon return to God, the little problems here and and there tend to look kinda small, all sandwiched in there between Grace and Love.
