Salsa dancing????

I cannot move my hips like salsa dancers...maybe if I am just messing around but not to dance. Anyhow, I love to break dance, i grew up doing that....anyhow, my g.f. really loves to dance (she swings and salsa's) and wanted me to go dancing with her, of course I was hesitant because I know I cannot dance to structured stuff. Anyhow, last night was the first I went to salsa....it was fun...even though i look like a big doofus doing it , it is really fun...looking forward to nexts week lesson.

How is everybodies faith doing?  My faith is coming back on track.....when we pull away from the Lord, it's because of our own doing. Recently, I have been being more involved with my smallgroup and people who love the Lord. It's a good feeling and want to keep it up. Is there anything that I could pray for anybody? Pray for me to continue my journey with the Lord

Currently Listening Lights and Sounds By Yellowcard Three Flights Up see related

a humbled heart.....

 Today, while I was at work getting ready to go from Los Angeles to Portland, my co-workers (including the Pilots) were chatting in the Jetway. I just listened because they were all complaining about "our" company and how cheap they are. Gossip is very bad and I am doing my best to seperate myself as much as I can quickly because it is a sin and very evil.

Standing some distance from them, I could hear them complain about the security procedures that are applied to the aircrafts after arriving from international flights. Somwhere down the line, the Pilot made a statement about Muslims, saying very negative stuff about them and also called them many nicknames that were very wrong. Everybody laughed and agreed, eventually starting to chip a peace of their minds on what they felt about them also. God really worked in my today, and I was really amazed.  For those who know me, I am no problem standing up for what is right or telling somebody they shouldnt be saying something if it really is racist, etc. I defend those in need very well, but with anger. Today was different. Once I heard those racist/evil words, my heart just felt like it was stabbed. It sunk very deep and I just wanted to get on my knees and cry. I forced myself to not say anything (even though I actually think that I would have done it in the right way today) and really belive it was a God send feeling because it really made me realize that God has humbled my heart, showing me that evil exisits everywhere and that one doesn't always have to do something to correct a problem, just learn to pray and trust the Lord with this one. That is what I did. But what made my day a lil' more difficult is that I worked with everybody until now, landing in Oakland. I just prayed for them a lot today and pray that they change........eventually, the Lord will work in them...

I am struggling though with what I shall do now. Do i report this matter to my supervisor? I don't want to creat a bad name for me but do these people deserve to be working here? No matter where a person goes, racism is evident...

The bible answered my soul as i searched for comfort and peace in this (thanks to my wonderful g.f., who always listens to me and my wonderful friends who always prayed for me during this),and the Lord guided me to Psalm 6:8..my heart continues to weep and the Lord has heard it.  Evenutally, sooner or later, my enemies will be ashamed of their actions..

A lost me.....

Today marks the day we, the U.S., pulled out of Vietnam, that is 35 years ago. WoW!!! When will this Iraq war be over? When shall/will we pull out?

Anyhow, it feels like my faith is weak right now. I am sad. I feel alone. God is there with me and I know it. A spiritual revival is what I need the most. Time to sink in the word. It feels like no matter how much i read it, I learn nothing. Help from the Lord please?

"....Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.  Therefore the wicked will not   stand in the judgement, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.  For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish."   ---Psalm 1:4-6

 

The above passage is sort of a wake up call but also scary.  What do you make of the above passage?  To me, it's a wake up call, a gut check. My first thought that comes across my mind is that "well, this passage is referring to murderers, rapists, etc, so it really doesn't apply to me" Well, does it really NOT apply to me??? It actually applies to everybody. "...nor sinners..."  is the keyword in that passage. Because we are all sinners and fall short of the glory of God it is reffering to us. So how do we not let this passage apply to us? Well, that is something that I have been searching the bible for......

I came across this passage by chance but just when I actually needed a good bible verse. Isn't it always amazing how that works? Anyhow, the reason why this actually was needed for me was because just yesterday I found out that a good buddy of mine (in high school, but lost contact with him after i left for the service) killed his girlfriend...won't get much into it but it's such a sad and disgusting story. My heart is crushed, hurt, saddened..let's not get angry but pray for all involved in this..even the suspect..

 

 

German- Jew Part II

 Well, in regards to the post below this one, I just wanted to write a quick response to my own post. What is happening with the "gay" Iranian is really a sad story. I don't know anymore what it says about the world. Whether one agrees or disagrees with Homosexuality, I don't think a Homosexual should suffer, especially die just because of their sexual orientation.

I just pray that the United States does not deny his asylum (the Netherlands and Brittan did). He deserves to live, doesn't everybody? For you prayer warriors, pray that this kid is not murdered and pray for the United States, that the leaders make the right choice because I am on his side.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
