So blogging. What is it? It's journaling? Is it thinking? Is it venting? I don't know. All I know is that I type really really fast. It is kind of funny watching how fast I can type. Souns like rain on an aluminum roof. Lol! Most people in the States would always say that I was too noisy in the classroom because I typed so fast and so loud. Man, I miss those days. But we can't keep dwelling on the past, we must KEEP MOVING FORWARD. Sigh. I liked Meet the Robinsons. I don't know why so many Christian reviewers online are bashing the film. It was so good. I mean, ther ewas so much Biblical truths in the film.
Let's see what else is going on? Yesterday was fun. I actually felt like I accomplished something and had fun doing it. I don't know. M aybe its because I didn't get so caught up in stuff and actually enjoyed the day that God gave me. It's interesting how if you focus on God in everything you do, you actually get a better view of things. Like I acknowledge that my skills here aren't really my own, but they are given to me by God. This life I live is a gift from God. Each good thing that happens in my life, even though painful at times, is a gift from God. God is just so amazing how he does that.
Right nwo I feel liek I need a restart in the mind. Or rather, I need a restart of a book. I'm tired of reading hte CS Lewis trilogy. I've been stuck on That Hideous Strength for over two months (given that I read Robinson Crusoe side by side with it for two weeks of it). I just, I don't konw, I want to read something new. I bought A Wrinkle In Time. Yeah, I know, far from what you'd consider a worthy follow up to Lewis. But it's supposed to be good and people tell me it's a fun read. So I'm going to giv eit a shot probably this weekend. I mean, how hard can it be? I bet I could finish that baby in a matter of a day. Maybe less. If Brad Meltzer can read the last harry potter book in five hours, I can get through A Wrinkle in Time in probably two. Who knows. Then there is the Stephen King book I got about his Dark Tower series. Looks creepy. Lol! But no, I'ts more a behind the scenes of his books. I like the way his mind works. It's so cool.
Work is going well. Is'nt it always? Correction. Serving God is great. I'm actually relizing more and more why I am here at Messiah. It's not so much work, it's more serving God and being able to watch Him work. That excitement is there. Sure, I could be earning a lot more money in, say, a Call Center (with my English), but why go there when I can serve God here. It's cool seeing how God is working, seeign lives changing. That's what else is so awesome! I can see it in the students here. I can see them really growing in Christ. All at different speeds and different maturity, but they are all growing! It's so awesome seeing them fired up about God and seeing them get this very God focus in life. How cool is that? You don't see that everyday, you don't hear testimonies about that everyday. It's just exciting!
Church is good too. I feel that I'm not as involved in ministry as I want to be, but I need to balance everything out. Here, let me list for you below everything I'm doing...
