Changes, challenges and crutches.

No i didnt break anything, but some things I have leaned on in the past are no longer there.  Things I took for granted.

The Challenges are what lie ahead, without the use of the formally used crutches.

And the Changes are still going on.

There where 3 christians in Turkey killed last week.  A german and two turks.  I feel many things about these events and about the country I have left behind.  Even thought I didnt know these brave souls, I hurt for them and some how wish to be them.  Paul sums up my feeling the best, in Phillipians 1:21  For to me, living is for Christ, and dying is even better.  yet if I live, that means fruitful service for Christ. I really dont know which is better.  I am torn between two desires:  Sometimes I want to live, and sometimes I long to go and be with Christ. That would be far better for me, But it is better for you that I live.  I am convinced of this, so I will continue with you so that you will grow and experience the joy of your faith.  then when i return to you, you will have even more reason to boast about what Christ Jesus has done for me.

I continue to live because as long as I live, I have more chances of showing more people  Jesus. Death would be easyer, (as if it was actually in my power to choose life or death and its timing.) But i continue to live.

one of these days I should think of something substantial to write in here.

work is work. But i wish it would stay at work.  I have lost the last week or so of sleep to it.  seems I am constantly trying to figure out the best way to build this dumb house in my sleep.  I wake up with no covers on.... cold... and fustrated.

church is good.  looking at ways to reach the post high school peeps at church.

Go Colts!!!

lightning does strike twice

so... my car is stolen right.  That happends once in every life time or so... right?  Well... mabey I was supporst to learn something the first time....

within a month of haveing my car stolen returned to me and then getting all the repairs done... its stolen again.  And everything inside it.  Lost me tools and everything....

I have become very easily freaked out when ever anything is missing.  I automatically think that someone stole it.  I have not been able to rest some nights because of the fear that someone is borrowing my car and it wont be there in the morning.  From the time i get up till the time I see my car in the mornings i wonder if it is still there.  Even though I am using a friends car until I can get mine fixed the second time.  I am still freaked out.  I might need cousiling.

So I have found a new place to live.  will be moving the first weeknd of aug.  If my car is taken a third time.... I am afraid of my actions after that.  The first time your first emotion is shock.  The second anger, rage, fustration, weeping.  I dont want to experience the third.

What in the heck is so attractive about a 94 jeep?

well poop. Then fun.

So I am walking out of my apartment one friday morning.  I have my lunch and gatorade and water all set to go to work.  I walk arround the tree to the place I parked my car the night before.  I find a pile of glass.  I start looking arround in the parking lot to make sure that I didnt park my car anywhere else.  It was usless and the facts had to be faced.  My car has been stolen. I call the police.  5 min. after hanging up the phone a police woman shows up at my door.  She tells me that they have already found my car and that there is some damadge to it.  It will be towed.  Call work, let them know I'll bee late.  Call Megan.  She gives me a ride to work.  A co-worker gives me a ride home.  Insurance will not cover anything because I only have liability insurance.  This was Friday. 

Sat-call the police. Where is my car now? It has been towed to the impound yard.  What is the condition of the car?  We dont know.  Call the impound yard.  Do you have my car and how bad is it?  We have your car and it is drive-able.  (whatever that means!)  Call window repair guys.  We can give you a ride to your car and put in the new window.  At the impound pay for towing and take a look at my car.  For a moment I start to panic.  The front buper is gone.  It looks like its been drove throught a barbwire fence.  over and over again.  Lots of damadge.  Then I realise that its not my car!  Its the jeep next to it!  Praise the Lord.  Me happy.  Just the broken window and stearing collum.  Told the window guy the wrong window.  He needs a different piece of glass.  Crap.  So the car is open for the taking(no glass) and it can be started with a screwdriver(stearing collum) I cant stay at my appartment tonight!  The guy that stole my car may live in the same building!  Whats to keep him from taking it again? Call pastor.  Leave the car in his neibor hood.  Megan gives me a ride home. 

Sun-megan picks me up to go to church.(8 oclock on a sunday is a hard thing for some) I am on the set up crew.  Sleep at pastors.

Monday-work.  Window guy cant get to me.sleep at pastors.

Tues-work Window guy cant get to me.  Loose patients with window guy. sleep at pastors.

Wen- Window guy!  Feel sorry for things I thought about the window guy.  Sleep at home!  What a beautiful thing.

Thurs- half day work. Drive to hot springs NC and go camping with youth group.

Fri- whitewater rafting with YG.  Have an ausome time.  Class 2 and 3 rapids.  (My first time out.)  Get stuck on rock. Everyone goes to the back of the boat.  Boat dumps 2 people. (the youth pastors) Save yp's had a great day for all.  Sleeped very well that night.

Sat- play in a waterfall with yg. pack up, go home.  Sleep

Sunday- Sleep until 830.  oops!  Load in starts at 8 and its a twenty minute drive to get to church.  panic dressing... Church goes well. sleep\rest on side walk while my helper loads the sound equipment. Lunch.  Nap. Now.

Not all weeks are like this one but Its been fun that is for sure.  I am exusted but very happy.  I have order or have all the parts I need to fix my car.  Just have to put the parts together. I will never for get walking out to my car and finding a pile of glass that once was my window. Its far to shocking to recover from in a week.  Now when ever something is now where I put it last my first thougth is that it has been stolen. (in my head) more stuff have been stolen from me this week than in my entire life. Then I find it and my panic subsides.  I needed the camping.  It gave my hole body a chance to relax. 

This has been a streching week.  but it ended very nice.
