About Me |
|
| Voice of the Day Courtesy of the Sojourners In most turning points in life, God’s grace is made known to us not through an intentional relationship with a spiritual guide but through the working of everyday relationships that are a means of grace we might not recognize if we did not ask: How was God at work in this relationship? - Sondra Higgins Matthaei Faith Matters . . . Idolatry is the practice of ascribing absolute value to things of relative worth. Under certain circumstances money, patriotism, sexual freedom, moral principles, family loyalty, physical health, social or intellectual preeminence, and so on are fine things to have around, but to make them the standard by which all other values are measured, to make them your masters, to look to them to justify your life and save your soul is sheerest folly. - Frederick Buechner Wishful Thinking And, . . . So many people feel so overwhelmed and disempowered by the stresses of modern life that they convince themselves they can't make a difference. So they don't even try. They bury their talents in the ground and let their spirits wither on the vine of life. I hope they will bestir themselves at least to say every day as an anonymous old man did: "I don't have the answers, life is not easy, but my heart is in the right place." - Marian Wright Edelman Guide My Feet Devotional Courtesy of Air 1 Priorities are so important in our lives. Cut through the stuff of life and seek the Lord Psalm 27:4 Proverbs 19:20 Get all the advice and instruction you can, so you will be wise the rest of your life.

My Interests |
|
| Camping, Backpacking, Reading, Astronomy, Cosmology, Astrophysics, Mathematics, Geology, GIS Database design, Goin' places and stuff. The Aquabats .. Roper, GOGO13, and their family, friends, heroes and allies. Ska and Reggae Music, Live Ska and Reggae shows. Reliant K Wake Up Call From the album Relient K “It’s three p.m.” she said, I said, “Your crazy.” She said, “Get out of bed, why are you so lazy? Why waste the day away?” I said, “Because I’m tired.” “Wendy’s called by the way they told me that you fired.” So reckless for all these years, I crashed into a wall. There’s a ringing in my ears, and it’s my wake up call. Chorus: Jesus gave me a wake up call. Take this world a grain of salt. Jesus gave me a wake up call “It’s three a.m.,” she said “Who are you Matchbox 20? She said, “Are you getting rest?” Sarcastic I said plenty!” “Don’t be a hypocrite.” I asked, “What are you saying?” “When you praise God do you mean it? Are you sleeping when you’re praying?” I know that pride and summertime come before fall. Almost missed the bus, but Jesus gave me a wake up call.
