It has been a long time.
I'm currently trying to get ready for my hiking trip this week, which includes doing laundry. No biggie deal, but I wonder how I am going to stretch this last three quarters into seven? Oh well, I have singles.
I am stressed. And I am really only blogging because I need a distraction. Time to get back to work.

The Untied Shoelace
Don't you love those little things in life that normally stress us out, but because of our present situation, we don't fuss over them?
Today for example: I was walking back from the cafeteria when I looked down and noticed that my shoelace was untied. But, seeing as I was barely 45 feet from my dorm, I didn't stress over it.
How awesome is it that we can take faith in the goals we have in life, and ignore the distractions? Ok, fine, a shoelace and sitting in my room are kind of far-fetched "goals" and "distractions." But, if we look at the bigger things in life, we can see where God provides us with a clear pathway, but then Satan will throw a distraction at us. If we are following fervently after God, we may not notice the distraction at all. And, if we are coming close to the goal, we will ignore the distraction and keep on keeping on.
Always remember the lesson of the untied shoelace.

Ahh...finally, good Christian rap
Yes, yes, you read correctly. Good Christian rap music.
I got the hook-up from my brother on a TON of music over Christmas break. But, I recently decided to search out the Christin Hip-Hop mix he got from one of his boys. And LO, I found quite possibly the best Christian rappers ever, not to mention that these guys rank in the upper-echelon of any rappers I've heard.
Ok, I've geeked out about that. It's Crawlathon weekend, meaning I finally get to go back underground. Laurel/Horn Hollow/Rimstone tonight, Bat Cave tomorrow and Sunday. Should I kilt it this weekend? (Outside the caves, obviously) I guess we'll decide later. It's about time for chapel (which I am not kilting it to, pending the 7 degree weather) and I need to finish getting around.
G'day y'all.

Everything: A Skit by Lifehouse
This skit is an amazing example of my walk with Christ, and I know from personal admission, the walks of others.
But he was wounded for our transgressions;
he was crushed for our iniquities;
upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,
and with his stripes we are healed.
(Isaiah 53:5, English Standard Version)

Blog, Revisited
Well, here I am again...
I've always wanted to be one of those people with a blog, that peers come to and read and keep track of...
I guess I finally want to try and do this for real. I don't know why. Maybe I'm growing tired of my childish, video game and TV filled days, and ready to actually commit to something? I don't know. Hopefully throughout the course of these events, I will learn.
I have grand plans for this blog. I'm gonna' list them here, as a reminder, so maybe someday they will be completed:
I hope you all stay tuned.
In Christ
