Just some thoughts...

I have had an interesting last few days/weeks. People have never ceased to amaze me. That has been a constant in my life. I am a pretty good judge of character, yet the things people do still manage to knock me over. I don't want to be specific, I'll just say various people that I have known for years and years have been behaving in ways contrary to what I would have expected.

Even members of my own family, people I've known my entire life seem different. Maybe it's me that's changed. I have noticed a change in my perspective since I've been walking with the Lord. The Bible says that when we are saved we become as new people. When we submit to God's will in our lives he shows us the world the way He sees it rather than how we previously viewed it.

I don't know, just some thoughts.

All I have to say is...

Some people just don't get it.

Just to shut you up

Something.

Happy?

Geez, I do have life you know.

God, yeah I said it.

So, the word for today children, is Study. Study to show thyself approved. Yes, I'm talking about the Bible and I'm talking about God. Not religion (dirty word these days), or spirituality (that's a tricky trap). I'm talking about a relationship with God. Big G.

Disclaimer: This blog is not going to become my self righteous soap box to condemn everyone who doesn't "believe what I believe." I will pray for wisdom so as not to become proud, but always a servant of God, doing His will. In all things I try will to better myself, not to look down on others. Hopefully, I can be a living example of what God can do, in that He will get the credit and the glory. The final choice will be yours.

Oh my goodness! What is all this about? Where is this coming from? I took that final step and made a conscious decision to make my faith my first priority. I was raised in the church, but I realized recently that my relationship with God was superficial at best.
I went to church when it was convenient and rarely studied the Word. When I did good I wanted credit from people, so they could see that I was a good person. It wasn't for God.
Most of what I knew about Jesus was what I heard other people say. I really didn't know anything substantial. The problem with that was whenever people who didn't believe in God or didn't have a personal relationship with Jesus asked me about my faith or questioned my beliefs, I faltered.
I was still doing almost all the things nonbelievers do. God wasn't getting any glory from my life.
So the question became, how can I ever expect to know for myself if I don't Study for myself?
Faith is personal, it can't be second hand.
Before, I wanted God to work around me and my will, but it doesn't work that way. It can't. He must come first and I have to conform myself to Him. Which is okay because he is God after all. If anyone knows what they are doing it's Him, right?
There are dozens of "religions" and philosophies, but none of them give you a relationship with your creator. None of them will ever give you true purpose, peace for today or hope for the future.

I'll tell you more later. Stay tuned...

Dylan...

She fakes just like a woman, yes, she does
She makes love just like a woman, yes, she does
Then she aches just like a woman

But she breaks just like a little girl...

Confession...

Most of the time, I have no idea what I am doing.

The Perfect Man

1. It is important to find a man who works around the house, cooks and cleans, and helps care for the kids.
2. It is important to find a man who makes a good living and loves to spend money on you and show you a good time.
3. It is important to find a man who's good in bed and who loves your body.
4. It is important that these three men never meet

He's Just Not That Into You

Please PLEASE buy this books ladies!!! This is just an excerpt, but every word is gold.

He's Just Not That Into You
By Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo

"Chapter One: He's just not that into you if he's not asking you out
Because if he likes you, trust me, he will ask you out

Many women have said to me, "Greg, men run the world." Wow. That makes us sound pretty capable. So tell me, why would you think we could be incapable of something as simple as picking up the phone and asking you out? You seem to think at times that we're "too shy" or we "just got out of something." Let me remind you: Men find it very satisfying to get what they want. (Particularly after a difficult day of running the world.) If we want you, we will find you. If you don't think you gave him enough time to notice you, take the time it took you to notice him and divide it by half.

If a guy truly likes you, but for personal reasons he needs to take things slow, he will let you know that immediately. He won't keep you guessing, because he'll want to make sure you don't get frustrated and go away.

• An excuse is a polite rejection. Men are not afraid of "ruining the friendship."
• Don't get tricked into asking him out. If he likes you, he'll do the asking.
• If you can find him, then he can find you. If he wants to find you, he will.
• Just because you like to lead doesn't mean he wants to dance. Some traditions are born of nature and last through time for a reason.
• "Hey, let's meet at so-and-so's party/any bar/friend's house" is not a date. Even if you live in New York.
• Men don't forget how much they like you. So put down the phone.
• You are good enough to be asked out.

...if the men are asking you out, if the men have to get your attention, then you, in fact, are the one in control. There's no scheming and plotting. And there is something great about knowing that my only job is to be as happy as I can be about my life, and feel as good as I can about myself, and to lead as full and eventful a life as I can, so that it doesn't ever feel like I'm just waiting around for some guy to ask me out. And most importantly, it's good for us all to remember that we don't need to scheme and plot and beg to get someone to ask us out. We're fantastic. "

Don't disturb this groove...

I'm in Heaven
Pay attention
Are you listening? You're my favorite girl
Excuse me for the moment I'm in another world
On a mountain by a fountain
Flowers blooming everywhere
With Venus and Cupid the picture's very clear

Hang the sign upon the door
It say don't disturb this groove
Just a way to say that I'm so into you
And the feelings so real don't disturb this groove

Erotic whispers for the listener the passion starts again
And the lollipops and everything a little taste of sin
Causing fire and desire in this mortal soul to live
Till the angels fall from Heaven and the day the earth stood still

Close your eyes and let the music put you in the groove
Baby just lock the door and turn the phone off it's time it's time for me and you
Are you ready (yes)

Hang the sign upon the door
It say don't disturb this groove
Just a way to say that I'm so into you and the feeling's so real
Don't disturb this groove 'cause I want to tell you that I'm so into you
And the feeling's so real don't disturb this groove
'Cause we're grooving baby a-grooving baby
And I love it baby and I love it baby love it baby

There's no deep meaning behind this post. I just think this is a kick ass song by The System.
