My Upmost for HIS highest
My Upmost for HIS highest
Could we have an open forum as to the effectiveness of this blog in different areas.
It is the hope that once Sara lands with her feet in US soil we can have an open forum online with microphones so we all can talk.
Do we want to continue on with the bible study? Those of you leaving school do we want a break until the forum?
I suggest some form of evaluation to see if the format can be improved upon and get dialogue as to what are mission is and how are we accomplishing it.
You're thought Everyone!!!!!
Love to all and I'm praying for those in finals.
God Bless and give you wisdom!

Today is ash wednesday...
Pastor Brian shared with us along with the sermon to remind us that we get ashes on our forehead to remind us that "we came from ashes and to ashes we will return"
That a little boy asked his mother why we get ashes on our forehead and she replied "we came from dust and to dust we shall return" The little boy looks under his bed and says. Well then there is someone under my bed and I don't know if they're comin' or goin'"
Pastor Brian was on a roll. He talked about this guy is lutheran and moves into an all catholic neighborhood.
On the first friday of Lent. He goes out and cooks a big steak on his grill (for those of you who don't know catholics don't eat meat on friday) each friday during lent this guy eats his steak and all the men in the neighborhood decide they are going to convert him to catholicism before the next lenten season.
So he comes to their catholic church and the priest
sprinkles holy water on him and say, " you were baptized lutheran, raised lutheran, but you are now catholic.
All these guys are relieved that this guy will now be eating tuna on fridays during lent. Lent comes around and all the guys noses are out of joint because they smell steak from the converts backyard again. They all approach him and he is grilling a steak but has holy water that he is sprinkling on it and he says, You came from a cow you were butchered from a cow but now your a fish!" okay I guess you had to be there!!

Hey sarah...
Hey sister,
Long time no blog....that is completely my bad. So what's up? What are you doing these days? I dont know if u can watch the Olympics but i have really gotten into it as much as i can. Honestly, my life right now isnt that fun and i know u can relate. School is just a pain in the ass. Like why does 15 credits have 50 labs?! Life is a balancing act. Also i'm really up in the air about this summer. I can either A) work at camp again which I love, but my boss isn't going to promote me and i feel like im not progessing or B) i could stay up at school and work and take classes. there are pros and cons to both sides but i just need a push in one direction. Any thoughts? So im here at my new job right now... it kicks ass... like i do Jay-type computer work for, get this.... $12 an hour... yea so im happy... also i donate plasma twice a week for $50. So i'm getting by. Umm what else is new... the superbowl in Detroit was actually a big success... only two people were killed during the week. lol. About the olympics... U.S. is doing pretty good... we are like third in the medals behind germany and norway... some highlights include some sweet ass nerds who are kicking ass in curling...speed skating we had the first black guy to win an individual gold in the winter games... "every girls dream" Bode Miller is kinda sucking in downhill skiing...overall i am enjoying it when i can... anyway wing is supposed to be back on march 5th and ill get that going. alright i should get to work.... hit me back
miss ya sis

The discipline of heeding
God gives us the darkness to listen to him. It's like when I crawl into bed at night. The stillness and darkness I feel God's presents. I have come to see darkness as a challenged journey. If I can maintian the course I will hear God. If I wine and complain about the darkness I have lost the opportunity forever. Darkness is not longer something to fight but something to surrender to, be broken. Wait on God. Listen. Enjoy the surrender. How beautiful is nature during these times.
