| Well I haven't thought, written, or done anything related to Xanga in a while. I guess it is not a big part of my life. Oh well I don't think anyone reads this anyway. I just write it so I can go back in a couple of months and read it. Most of it is just a lot of random thoughts that are in my head.
I am currently in a middle stage in my life. I am going to grad school and about to start a real job. I mean a job where I am an official adult.
When I look back at the last years of my life, I know God did so much. I cannot comprehend the amount of grace God has given me over the last 4 to 5 years of my life. He has taken me from someone that was shy and did not care about stuff, to someone that is proactive and has to be in the middle of something.
I was in a leadership meeting in Ohio in September and the guy talking said that "LEADERSHIP IS INFLUENCE!" Right at that moment in my life I thought about some of my accomplishments and wondered if I had influenced anyone. Did the decisions of my life have an affect on anyone?? I sure hope they did.
Sometimes I am just thankful to God. I thank him for the good and the bad in my life. Sometimes it's hard to thank God in the bad times, but I try my hardest to do it. Most of the time, lately, I thank God for another day. When I wake up in the morining this thought jumps in my head, and I just say "Man, God just gave me another Day! Thanks God!!"
I teach a 5th and 6th grade guys Sunday school class. The other day one of the guys said, "Seeing God is like looking in the sun. It is so great and powerful that we can't look at it for to long." What a great example of God's face shining upon us. It talks about how different people in the Bible saw God and how their face just shined to the extreme. Sometimes I can't wait to stand before God, and have His greatness and beauty shine in front of me. It's going to be so much more than our minds comprehend.
Sometimes I think I should be in some foreign country telling people about Christ and His love for them. I have been to a couple different places on mission trips. Sometimes I pray for God to show me the nations. But then God turns and says to me. "You are in the place I want you to be. You are where I want you to be. And He tells me I will show you Byram, Jackson, Clinton, Terry, Raymond, Brandon, Richland, Ridgeland, Madison, and everywhere else you are now! You might want these other things, but I want you here." I just pray that I will go wherever God want me to go.
sometimes I pray for my future and forget/miss whats right in front of me.

| well I am in the great state of ohio. Its kinda weird to think I will be working on the campus of The Ohio State University. This place has always been one of those places I would have loved to go watch a football game when I was younger. Now I am working on campus. Its really cool. I guess God can take you to some great places if you allow him. I am working with Crosswalk Collegiate Ministries. It should be so much fun. If you want information, the website is
