a little catch up...
ive been posting on my myspace blog for a little while now, at the time i couldnt remember how to log into the *new* blogger... heres a little catch up...
friday march 9th, 2007...i think i'll get an ipod so i can listen to the music i want to listen to all the time because thats what i want to do. also, it will probably provide an easy way to distract me and drown out all the problems, thoughts, questions, and maybe,
juuuust maybe, Gods voice that seem to be so pestering all the time. it might even provide a good excuse for me to igonore other people and pretend like i cant hear them or just act like what i'm listening to is more important than anything they might have to say to me. yeah. thats a good idea. glad i thought of it.
i.pods are great. but maybe they should teach an i.pod etiquitte class or something. maybe i'm just jealous that i dont have one but most everyone else i have even known do have one.
don't let this offend you too much if you love i.pods. im just sayin...
saturday, March 10, 2007...i really,
really,
really think i just heard a dinosaur out there...
i'm serious.
Sunday, March 11, 2007...one of the things that i have learned... artificial smells (perfume, colonge, smelly, smelly body wash possibly) really, really bother me. i think they congest me and also make me
nauseous.
lets stick to the natural smells. dirt. maybe an essential oil every once in a while (preferebly patchouli or sage) and ditch the man made frangrances. they give me a head ache.
Sunday, March 18, 2007...this is where i went today...

i didnt mean to, i guess. i just started walking and this is where i ended up at. i started at camp and walkity walked through the forrest on a trail... i figured i would pop out on the road somewhere.
conquered that overgrown, hardly walked, rocky backwoods trail i guess.

so jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him untill day break. when the man saw that he could no overpower him, he touched the socket of jacobs hip so that his hip was wrenched as he wrestled with the man. then the man said, "let me go, for it is daybreak."
but jacob replied " i will not let you go unless you bless me."
the man asked him. "what is your name?"
"jacob," he answered.
then the man said, "your name will no longer be jacob, but isreal, because you have struggled with God and with men and have overcome."
jacob said, "please tell me your name."
but he replied, "why do you ask my name?" then he blessed him there.
so jacob called the place Peniel (meaning face of God) saying "it is because i saw God face to face, and yet my life was spared."
God let jacob win. jacob wrestled with God all night becuase he was passionate. God wants us to be passionate with him. he wants us to ask questions, to be relentless, to struggle with him. God doesnt get offended when we ask him questions, when we "wrestle" with him, he desires such acts of passion and we will be blessed becuase of them.
i think i'll keep on asking questions, i think i will keep on being relentless with God. i think thats what im going to do.
