  • Stories

    I was looking through pictures of my friends on facebook tonight. Pictured are the good times people have shared for the world to see. Or maybe just to remind those involved. Stories hit me from every direction. I wanted to go to each of my friends and make them tell me the story behind each…

  • Singing In The Car

    There is no better cure for a cruddy day, than to get away in my car. I pretend I’m not one of those painful-to-watch performers on American Idol, and sing all my favorite songs at the top of my lungs. Sometimes there is even a little dance to go along. I feel safe that no…

  • Up Late, Obligation, and Optimism

    I was in the machine tool lab till 6 last night. As a result I slept all day, and now here I am up late again. Moving through my thoughts, processing God’s voice and my situation. The situation I find myself it is no accident. God’s voice is real to me, in a book, in…

  • Machine Shop Reflections

    I am sitting here watching the slow movement of the band saw through the aluminum. My eyes glaze over watching the trickle of coolant through the metal shavings, and my mind begins to wander to the vague emotions running through my veins…Indecision: It has been a long day, getting up too early, finding the plans…

  • Gift from God

  • I can’t sleep.

    This is a weird semester. I have very little homework. I sleep a lot, which makes it hard to go to sleep at night. I’m was listening to my iPod in bed, finally feeling like I could post here. Feeling like I need to post here. So I got up and came over to my…

  • Third Person

    Once upon a time there lived a young girl. She always wanted to know the future. Sometimes she would ask God specific questions about her future. Usually they were yes or no questions. Is he “the one”? Will he call? Sometimes she would get answers to these questions, but she was always wary when the…

  • Plans

    Today, I was reminded, again, that God has a plan for my life. I don’t really know what this plan intails, or where it will take me, but I know that this plan does exist. “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm…

  • Somewhere

    Have you ever been somewhere quite, and felt like screaming? Have you ever felt like running when you had to sit still? Have you ever wanted something to be over, and had time move like molassas? This is how I feel. Stagnent, discontent, frustrated, like something is on the verge of happening, but it hasn’t…
