28 Days Later

So I'm doing fantastic. "Now is that because of your circumstance or your perspective?" That's a good question. I'm doing fantastic because of my perspective. My circumstances are nice right now as well. But I know that's going to change in the next couple of weeks. But my perspective is one of that God is absolutley in control, and He's doing a better job of controlling my life than I do. When you're stuck in a rut, you have to get a boost out. Or have someone carry you out. I was in a rut and God has pulled me out. And now, He has put me on the right path and he's not letting me stray. He's got my hand, and he's not letting go. When my perspective changes, God will put me to the test; as he has so many times. He's amazing like that. Anyway, just a quick update. Later, y'all.

P.S. McCain won Florida and Guiliani is dropping out and is going to endorse him.

P.S.S Congratulations to me on 28 days!

Amazing Fountain of Every Grace

Hey ya'll. As you can see in my previous post, I never actually got around to putting up the revised version of "The War". I'll see if I can do that, although the computer it was on got a virus, so it may be gone forever. But anyway, it's been a long time since I've posted. Twenty days, in fact. And what an eventful 20 days it has been! Well, not really but it's had its ups and downs, like and other days. But God has been doing some amazing things, which I think I'd like to talk about.

The thing about sin is that it cripples your soul and brings you to a dark place where all the trees are dead and the water is poisonous. The darkness around you is so thick that you can't see anything around you. What this means is that sin makes you feel like there's no hope and you're never getting out of there. It blinds you to other areas that you need to work on. Then when you turn and look at the blinding light, and you seek the real answer for your problems, you are enlightened to see the patches of poison and dead trees. Basically, when you have victory over a certain sin in your life then you are able to see the other sins.

Well, by the Grace of God, I've been having victory over a certain sin in my life and naturally, I get to see how much more corrupt I really am. :-D And it was quite depressing. However, God is getting me through it as he always does. I'll be fine; don't worry. But God is pretty much amazing for giving me this much grace. For my title, I've combined two of the best hymns ever written, Amazing Grace and Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing. I think it fits nicely, rolls off the tongue and rings in the ears. Anyway, that's what God is. Later, y'all!!

I wish I had a specific verse to give y'all, but the book of Genesis is what I've been reading through and it is beautiful, actually. So go read that!

The War: A Prequel to The Magistrate

Story taken down for further editing. Hopefully, I'll have it up by tomorrow.

Take A Breath, Look Back and Thank God it's Over

Well, it's the New Year. 2007 has been kicked of the podium of time and has been replaced by a new emperor, 2008. All I can say is, good riddance 2007!!! Seven is such a dull number anyway, and it's about time it was replaced. If I'm permitted to open my soul on this squre inch of blogosphere, then I shall do so. The year 2007 sucked quite profoundly. I'm not going to go into the details of exactly how it sucked, but I'm glad it's gone. Although, God did do a lot of work through the things that happened. 2008 promises to be full of new challenges and more of God's work. All the things that happened in the past year helped make make me into a stronger person, though many times I wish it didn't have to hurt as much. But that is how God works most of the time. The sermon on sunday night talked about the trials the new year will bring; God will still try us as his children and put us through fire to mold us into fine working instruments.

Well, I originally just came onto my blog to rant about how much I hated 2007. I lost some friends and I made some new ones. That's how it goes, not always with the same methods though. The people in my life influence me so much. The friends I now have are pretty incredible. There were things I lost with the friends I lost, and God brought new friends to bring those things back in. Life is an airport, and someone flew away, and someone else looked to their side and saw me. Thank you, God.

In other news, there will hopefully be a Magistrate part 2 sometime in the next week.
