| So I haven't written an entry in like weeks. It's been crazy busy in my life.
I find myself so busy that i don't even make time for what is really important in my life My friends have suffered, my time with God has suffered, and I haven't been the servant I should be.
Please God, keep me humble. Let me remember what is important in my life...You first, then family and friends, then school.
Help me to be more focused on You.
I love You.

| Alright, so it's been a week. I really guess I should update more often.
Things aren't too shabby, not too shabby at all.
I've found true love, yes that's right, for the first time...It's pretty amazing, not gonna lie.
I also took my first real Greek test, and yes, it's still all Greek to me.
God is doing amazing things in my life and the lives of others. 400
people, yes that's right 400 people came to FCA last night and 23 were
added to His Kingdom last night. If only that kind of revival took
place every day all day, what a world we would live in.
A word of encouragement for those in doubt about God's sovereignty over
the world, or maybe you've been having some doubts/fears/anxieties
about how in control God is: "For I am God, and not man-the Holy
One AMONG YOU, I will not come in wrath." Hosea 11:9
You see, God loves His children. He is God and we are man. If we would
remember that, I guarantee a lot of problems in the world would clear
up.
I love you all. But eh, some more than others....

| I'm starting to realize how much caffeine(coke and the like, coffee, etc.) are going to be my friends this semester.
I never plan to take this many hours again if I can help it. Greek is
demanding. It's tough trying to speak 3 languages everyday. Between
English, Spanish, and Biblical Greek, I don't even feel like talkin
sometimes! How sad is that?
However, next semester will be better. I won't have to take a history
ever again, and I'll be done with my philosophy credit as well. My
semester could be pretty similar next semester minus those two classes,
and all the sudden I only have 13.5 hours instead of 19.5. But, I'm
sure something else will get put in its place.
I'm going to try to get caught way up this week, possibly ahead. If you can't get a hold of me, sorry.
College ministry at my church (First Presbyterian Church of Rome)
starts tomorrow! 7:30 call me if you need a ride or directions. We're
going to probably move it to Sunday nights. It's very contemporary and
we're starting our second year. Hopefully, it will grow a good bit this
year.
Anyway, I'm going to go to bed. I'm getting up at 6 to continue
studying for Greek. We have quizzes in there every single class, which
stinks, because you can only drop 3 quiz grades, I've already got one
drop grade, and the quizzes cumulatively add up to 25% of the total
grade.
Me and Ashley are doing great, by the way... <3

| So, the past week was almost devastating. It couldn't have been much worse at times.
I made an excellent choice
yesterday after making a not so good choice on Monday. I am glad to say
that me and Ashley are back together and as far as I know it's for good!
That's what happens when you
consult Scripture, pray with God instead of just offering up words, and
listening when He responds. Good things happen.
It's about time that I started
doing that more. I just recently(even though I've claimed to be a
Christian for almost my entire life) have figured out what it means to
be a follower and disciple of Christ.
Most interesting, I also now
hunger for the Word of God. I normally am not a big fan of reading but
God has instilled in me a desire for His word and instead of running
away, I'm finally feeling like I'm drawing closer.
Things at Shorter are going
pretty well. Greek has gotten a lot tougher. I need to put some serious
hours in tomorrow and today with school stuff, because I spent all day
yesterday with friends at the game, then Jefferson's with Cory and
Ashley, and finally football in the room with Ashley and AJ. I have a
ton of reading I need to do but it's hard to get motivated.
Oh well. But yeah, sorry I
don't update these blogs more. I really should. I don't get the time I
need to call and just talk to people anymore. I'm going to fix that
though.
On a more personal note, I need prayer for the following things:
1)Revival on Shorter's Campus
2)The Church @ Shorter
3)BCM(Baptist Collegiate Ministries)
4)PSF(Presbyterian Student Fellowship)
5)Delta Sigma Phi
6)College Ministry @ First Pres
7)School
8)Family, Friends, and Ashley
I just want you guys to pray
that God's will be done in any situation in my life, and that He would
have me do what is necessary to fulfill my obligations to Him and to
others, and to help me remember to put myself last in order to serve
Him best.
Thanks guys, you all are awesome
PS I'm extremely happy! <3

| I have a 4.0 after one week , lol!
Let's see if it sticks.
PS Greek is awesome! I never thought I would like learning such a difficult language, but it's really simple if you stay on it!
