I am Yours

Monday, January 30th, 2006

I’m still on this point because it’s a major issue in my life right now - giving up the reins to God.

Proverbs 16:3
But how do you really measure success? Definitely not by the prosperity Gospel! Being a Christian doesn’t mean guaranteed health [...]

‘Who Am I’ by Casting Crowns

Sunday, January 29th, 2006

Went back to PSPC today with Joel and Bing, just for old times’ sake. It was kind of nice to see old faces, but I also quickly realized I’m much happier where I am now, in ORPC. The atmosphere is so different! I don’t think I took much back from today’s sermon [...]

The Da Vinci Code - Dan Brown

I wake up and say a prayer for you again
I put on that song you sang to me and then
I head off to my job, guess not much has changed
Punch the clock, head for home
Check the phone, just in case
Go to bed, dream of you -
That’s what I’m doing these days.
- ‘These Days’ by Rascal [...]
