I got exercise today... I got a full slate of exercise today. I went running this morning, which didn't turn out to be as long a run as I usually would have liked. But I was able to play basketball tonight for 2 solid hours. I'm tired, yet invigorated.(spelling?) I am also going to give a glimpse into a little writing I did in my notepad/journal/sermon note-taker/prayer request keeper. Obviously I don't know what to call it. Anyways...here goes.

"My heart yearns for a soulmate right now. I'm starting to wonder if this "yearning" is of Satan or just my evil desires. Anything that might distract me from what God wants for me right now, (i.e. obedience to Him, service at my church, fixing of my finances) is not from Him! This is not to say that "the devil made me do it" mentality is what I'm embracing. But because I yearn for a soulmate, my focus on what God wants gets diverted. To be conformed to the image of Christ is to turn everything over to Him. Including my "future" wife, if God so answers that prayer. If I hold onto anything, whatever that thing is, it will ultimately distract or will be used to pull me down in my walk with Christ. Because I haven't given up my "ideas" on relationships and fully given them to God; that part of my life most likely, won't be fulfilled as quickly as other things in my life. If I can't give my love life to God, God can't have full control."

Well that's a taste of what I had on my mind as of Tuesday morning. I hope it all made sense and if you have any comments. Please share. I have my guestbook up and running on my site again. God bless you and your endeavors this coming weekend.

Today will be a long day, I think. It will be a long day, but in a good way. I have a ton of stuff to do before I work at Cam's at 4. Which reminds me. I need to go pick up my check from there and throw that in the bank. I don't have too much to say this morning except that life is good. I have some holes to start digging myself out of when it comes to the point that I can make some consistent cash. But that's no biggy. I hope everyone has a great Friday!

God is good! So I have some freelance work coming my way. It hasn't hit me yet, as it basically being enough work to be a full time job. Maybe I just have the idea that "full-time" means at an office, working on someone else's schedule. I really like the idea of working at home. It is amazing how God blesses through times when we think things look bleak.

On a different note. I'm really hoping Cam's will sponsor our basketball team so I can play this winter. All though if the finances start looking up, I might be able to afford it. We'll see. I do love playing basketball, in case that hasn't been obvious in my posts over the last year. I'm off to get some actual work done in my new job! :-) God bless you!

It was a long weekend. It's late Sunday night/Monday morning. I felt like I wanted to update this tonight. So my cousin's wedding was interesting. It was good to see her happy. That was the part I tried to focus on. I won't go off on my perspective. I just don't think it would be cuth. So I found it interesting, and I'll leave it at that. I will say that the Bible is irrelevant if the doctrine preached is screwy.

We had a great crew at 20 something, which was really cool. I really love that ministry. I feel like the group we have coming is solid and sincerely interested in the Word that we're going through. So I don't think I have too many "deep" statements flowing tonight.. I just felt the need to update this. I hope and pray that everyone has a great night of sleep tonight and amazing week. God bless you!
