Hey all,
Well, today was fun! I hung out with my friends Kayla Faught, Josh Shelton, and Kane Tabor. We just goofed off the whole afternoon and had fun. We will have to do it again sometime.< ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Well, this week is going to be fun. NOT. I have to get all this crap done from school in like two days. I am looking forward to going over to my friend’s Rob’s house and work on his daughter’s computer.

Then I would like to do something on the third of July for…. Red, White, and Bicentennial Boom! So if you are reading this and live in < ?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Columbus, I know you already, and are interested, give me a shout.

Well, that’s about it. It will be a boring week, so PLEASE talk to me, or e-mail me, or leave a comment, or something!

Hey All,
I am back! Well, sort of. I am back for five days. Yay! Anyways, let see, what has been happening lately. Well, camp has kept me pretty busy. I got back Friday and slept most of Friday, and I got up today around 2:00PM.

Mom has ruined my car. I still have my Ford Taurus, but my other car (1993 Plymouth Laser RS), isn’t running right. I guess that means when I get back from all these camps I will be finding somewhere to work at, so I can buy a car.

I just stared a Blogring, The CCCU Group. If you attend or once attended a CCCU church, PLEASE JOIN! I would like to know just who out there goes to CCCU and has a Xanga account.

Well, I am going to go edit some video. Then probably off to bed. I will try and keep this updated, now that I know people actually read it…

Yet another month has almost passed without me writing. Sorry guys! I have been at two camps (SYA and JYC) for the last two weeks. I have been so busy. Finally I have some time to sit down and write in to let you all know I am still alive!

It is so funny when you read a journal online and then finally meet the “person behind the Xanga”. I ran into become_UNmasked at camp, hahaha. Then I found out that a few other people I know have Xanga, so I added them to my list.

I hope you all are doing well. Drop me a line sometime or give me a call (or beep for Nextel users) on my cell phone. If you don’t have the numbers, e-mail me and I will give them to you.

Someone finally posted a comment, so I guess someone actually reads my thoughts. So here is what has been happening.

GOD HAS BEEN SO AMAZING IN MY LIFE. I got to go to a Christian Technical Arts Conference and it has chagned the way I view my Technical Ministry in my church and my spiritual life with God. It was by a miracle that I got to go, and I am still thanking God that He allowed me to go.

If you’ve read in the past, I have been lonely. I found out that someone that I thought would never be my friend, turned out to be so cool, and wanted to be my friend. We’ve become great friends over my trip (he went to the conference too) and I am so thankful that God placed us at the right places at the right time, so we could become friends.

Night all,

Do you ever have those days where you look at your schedule and to-do list for the week and wonder, “How am I ever going to do all this?” Well, from what I can see, it is going to be one of those weeks.< ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Life’s been really stressful lately. I have things going on with some consulting work I was doing, church, home, and some other things. It’s been one of those weeks where you just want to scream!

One of my very good pastor friends, Rob Faught, sent me this song, for some encouragement. Here are the lyrics:

Lighten My Load
Satellite Soul

And the waves come rolling
Crashing over me
In the fury of a love I can’t contain
Then my doubts come calling
From deep inside of me
With the hope of freedom
I call out your name, and I say

Lighten my load
Lighten my burden
Be the one to take away my doubting
Show me the truth
Show me the reason
That I can believe this time and
Fall in love with what I find in you
Won’t you lighten my load?

 

So if any of you are having a week where it seems like you have so much, I hope this song can bring you the same encouragement. I am going to go, I need sleep.

After reading a few online journals, I have come to find something interesting. Why is it that girls must announce to the whole Xanga community that they are going through PMS? Come on, now is that something that you really want everyone to know? Oh well, it just hit me funny, so I thought I would post it.< ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Tonight was a blast. We really didn’t have a meeting. We all started talking and joking, it ended up being pretty funny. I have to finish school crap this weekend, and then I am free for the rest of the year! THANK YOU JESUS! It is about time. Anyways, I am going to go, tired.

Well all, sorry I haven’t written in a while. I have been so busy lately it isn’t funny. I have been finishing a bunch of crap for school, and all that good stuff. Then I have been doing stuff with where I work, the company I want to start, stuff at church, and I had a consulting job earlier in the week. So I’ve been running around the city of < ?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Columbus all week.< ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Lets see, what else do I want to talk about? Oh, I am trying to get money to go to a Christian Arts Conference in June; but, so far nothing has turned up, so keep praying for that.

I also got talked to this week about doing two more youth camps. Now, don’t get me wrong, youth camps are fun and all; but, I don’t know if I should do all three or not. I guess it would depend of what my work schedule is looking like. Every camp tells me that they REALLY need me, so I sort of feel guilty about telling them NO, and then doing it for another camp. So keep that in your prayers too.

Well, I am off. I have a meeting tonight for church. So I will be out of the house most of the afternoon and evening. If you want to get a hold of me, call my cell phone or beep it if you know my Private ID. If you would like either one of the numbers, IM me at Jcm475, leave your name and e-mail, and when I get back I will shoot you an e-mail with the info.

Sorry I haven’t written in a while, I’ve been so busy. Anyways, this is a big work week for me, personally. I have the week off from going into the office, but I have to do stuff for school, church, camp, and some other things I have to get done around the house.< ?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Life has been going well for the most part. Just been busy, that’s all. I need your prayers because I have a lot to get done this week, and I am afraid that I won’t get it done. I think the only way I can get all this done is with God’s help, so PLEASE PRAY!

Well, that is my update for now. I will have to write again and let you know what I am up to.

Oh and one last note. Visit http://www.buddyzoo.com it is the coolest thing ever. Go there and register!

Lata,
