Laziness Reigns Supreme (My Latest Xanga Post Pasted)
So finally a new update...
A lot of things can happen in a month. God has been doing a lot of cool things in my life. I've started to read through the book of John. Jesus is an interesting guy. One minute he says that he didn't come into the world to judge the world (John 3:17) and on the other he says he came to the world for the purpose of judgement (John 9:39). Of couse if we understand the context of both statements we will realize that they are not contradictory but complimentary. I'm sitting here with Ben who is filling out an application for CIU. He got to the "On what do you base your claim of salvation?" question, and after thinking a while, asked if it would be ok if he just pust "my faith in Jesus Christ." Of course I said, "Yes." It makes happy that he's beginning to get the whole Christ-follower thing. I'm also slowly working my way through C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters. I have made some new friends/aquaintances lately. Well it's kinda that. I met Tami Pagano in the Student Center a week or so ago. She seems like an cool person. Genevive offered to cook Ben and me dinner sometime which is just cool. Food is good and good food is better (especially when I don't have to cook it). I want to buy several CD's right now. The new Whitecross, Baumer, and Bon Jovi albums are either available now or release tomorrow. Ok so the Whitecross album is a rerecording of the first whitecross album but hey that's what makes it so desirable. I have now officially stopped teaching small group at East Lake, but have now been roped into helping coordinate an event Oct. 1st. I've finally started to go to small group (people wouldn't like me if I called it church but for all intents and purposes it is) on Tuesday nights. Luther Lown was there for the first time in a while which is really cool. I like Luther He's unpredictable and a bit psycho which just makes him fun to be around if you learn to expect that at any second a spoon could be flying towards your head. I love Stryper. I'm looking forward to going to the show on Oct. 30 in Charlotte. Back to the bible study thing. I felt kinda bad 'cuz I totally zoned out for most of it Tuesday, but am really looking forward to this Tuesday and getting back into Galatians. I have an interview at Calltech tomorrow morning so I am hoping that it goes well. I have entered two more codes into every10minutes.com. It's not like I will actually win an xbox 360 but whatever. I need to take Leela to the vet (they are expensive but a necessary evil). I'm glad I don't have to go into Chick-Fil-A tomorrow. I hope I can find a new job soon. But, I was affirmed by a Chick-Fil-A employee today who said I would make good manager. I'm possibly going to see Cry_Wolf tonight. I did go see Just Like Heaven and Red Eye both OK movies (Just Like Heaven was the better of the two Sure it was a chick flick but...). I need to get my CV joint on my car replaced soon, but that's gonna be expensive. I'm about done. I still need to work on my Shepard costume for the Serenity Shindig that gonna happen. Back to God. I do need to possibly readjust my focus on Christ in relationship to other people. I don't know if i'm treating others as Christ would, but I do want others to see Christ in me. May God change me making me more like Christ every day. I need to work on dying.
