Christ is trustworthy
02.20.05 (9:50 pm) [edit]Jesus is the only one who won't let you down. Sometimes we put our faith ONLY in other people, not in Christ. It is hard to trust God when our experiences of trusting someone are with humans who have a hard time being trustworthy. We are let down so many times that we believe God will do the same. But he's not that way!!! In fact Christ is the only man who will not disappoint, so give Him your heart ladies!
"What Other Man"
I never feel You far away,
When others leave I know You'll stay.
I hear You speak inside my heart,
It's then I'll know we'll never part.
You always give me everything,
And Your love has never left my side.
You've been there in my darkest night,
You're my strength when I want to hide.
And what other man would give every though He has?
Speak with love in what He says?
Lay down His all to set me free?
What other man, would give His life for me?
Only Your love for me will do,
I've known the thrill of loving You.
All of my dreams I hold inside,
I'll give them to You to realize…
You always give me everything,
And Your love has never left my side.
You've been there in my darkest night,
You're my strength when I want to hide.
And what other man would give every though He has?
Speak with love in what He says?
Lay down His all to set me free?
What other man, would give His life for me?
You built me a wall,
To keep me from harm.
When life is cold,
He'll keep me warm.
And what other man would give every though He has?
Speak with love in what He says?
Lay down His all to set me free?
What other man, would give His life for me?
Hope (lessness) gone
02.16.05 (10:19 am) [edit]I realize my last entry seemed very depressing. I'm sorry, I was just wrestling with many emotions. I am better now, thanks to the realization that when what you are living for changes, then you were living for the wrong thing. It is better to have your feet on the rock that never changes.
Why does God forsake those He "loves"?
02.12.05 (5:39 pm) [edit]Right now I am wondering why I am alive. Why people pretend to care about me. Why the people who are supposedly my friends/loved ones reject,forget and plain ignore me.
Oh, well, I guess you can tell who your real friends are by the choices they make.
ugh
02.10.05 (9:22 pm) [edit]Computers are great, most of the time. Right now though, I can't get mine to convert word documents into files I can use. GRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok, I feel better. Back to working on the Newspaper.
Peace.
Communication issues
02.07.05 (8:39 pm) [edit]I am glad that God made men and women. However, the differences between the two genders can be extremely confusing at times. I was reminded by a friend of mine tonight that communication between genders can be a difficult and timeconsuming process. It rarely goes as such:
Gwen: Hey, Bobby! I want to tell you something important.
Bob: Yeah, ok. I am here giving you my full attention.
Gwen: Yeah, thanks. I know you didn't really mind me interrupting you and the X-box. You haven't been able to play for 6 hours, but I figure, what the heck - you playing is not really that important!
Bob: Of course not! Who cares if I beat Halo 2 in a record 48 hours. So tell me whats going on . . .
Gwen: Well, I just FEEL . . .
Blah, blah, blah . . . you get the point. Both people are unbelieveably considerate in this conversation (or inconsiderate because Gwen thinks that Bobby playing video games is stupid, when it is important to him, so it should be important to her).
Anyways, communicating is hard. But relationships can be worth it if you are willing to be selfless.
word of the day is . . .

- Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)
How have you treated people around you today?
How will you treat them tomorrow?
I'm gonna buy a big box of thank you cards!
02.03.05 (3:15 pm) [edit]I just came into a little money today/yesterday and I think the first or fifth thing i will purchase is "thank you" cards. My roommate and I just had a conversation last night about the vital importance of dropping people a note to say thanks!
I used to be quite a bit more generous in giving gifts, cards, etc. I think it is because I am strapped for time. If I bought thank you cards, put stamps on them and had them ready to go, I would give them out more often!
So if you feel like I owe you a card (thank you, I'm sorry, greetings) let me know. I have a lot of catching up to do from the last few years! :)
