I'm drowning, but I don't care,
Because when you've got what I got, what I got, what I got
Who needs air?

I have come to the realization that life is more than what I have accomplished.
And life is more then the realization that we have accomplished nothing at all.
True success is so selfless so drown in the lyrics of your life
and give up the air that you breathe.
You don't need anything.


Classic Crime, "Who Needs Air"

Is God good?

I just found this little discussion on my computer and figured I'd post it since I haven't posted in so long.  So without anymore delays, here it is!



Is God good all the time?  Can He really be trusted?  Or do you just trust Him when you don't have to risk anything.  Do you trust Him when you crash your car?  When your parents die?  When you are unjustly punished and abused?  Or are you a hypocryte like me, telling everyone that you trust God with all your heart.  But what about when the pressure is turned on?  Will you be a hypocryte like me?  Doubt, unfaithfulness, fear, abandonment, confusion, anger, frustration, complaining, and lying are all characteristics of mine.  But I dress them up to look spiritual to try and fool those around me.  I think I've even fooled myself.  The hypocryte within tells me this isn't really who I am but deep down I'm good and I'm the victim.  He screams life is about you, live it as you please.  God whispers back leave your life behind so that you may find life in Me; I AM faithful and good.  And somehow God's whisper is more powerful then the scream.  My heart echoes back God's whisper and wearily drops it's hold of my life.  With nothing left to hold on to my heart wants to grab control back.  But when I trust God and rely on Him I realize that I didn't have control of my life.  My life had control of me.  The strings I had attached to my life to control it had instead begun to drag me down and control me.  Good God of Heaven, please give me strength to lose my life for you.  Work in my heart and transform my mind.  Keep me from evil and help me to love as you have loved me.  Amen

Well it's been so long since my last post that I even look differently now.  I've aged a lot through college and here's a new picture of me.  It's my new profile pic.  My advanced aging is due to the fact that I only get about 4 hours of sleep a few nights out of the week.  But the good news is that since I've been awake that much longer I still average the same amount of awake hours as someone who looks this old.  Ok that's all for now.  Stay tuned cause my next post may be in the obituaries if I hold my record for how long it takes me...  Have a great life!
