-JJ
ps, any one intreseted in concept reviewing? if ya are drop me a line or tell me or email me or whatever. Just dont post on my blog cause that would be sac-religious..... so thats why you are afraid to post on my blog..... January 20 Various topicswell, not much to say. I wana get out of here real bad right now! lol. I love my home and everything but its so....pointless? Like I like my talks with unsaved people and I like the service, but I realy would love to go. Somwhere.
Hah, I suppose it's not just that I wana go. I guess I want what every silly boy wants. Sadly wanting to go and live is growing on me. Not just "geting on with my life". More then that there is a growins sense that this is not life, that there is alot more. Adventure! Poor americans... I'm one of them though I suppose.
Also I guess I will throw in a plug for my book I'm writing right now, it's going to be good.
Oh and while I'm on the topic! I read the BEST books ever! It's the "sword of shannara" trilogy. Oh man.....read them, I don't care if you dont like fantasy just do it! Ok so maybe if your more down to earth then that you wont like it but for those of us who arent normal. Read it. . December 24 WOWBOY OH BOY! I got a bunch of pictures from the summer the other day on my memory key and was just looking at them on my computer and its weird! The first thing I noticed is how much older every one looks now! Its crazy. I can't tell if I look older...but I suppose I probly do. Anyway the seccond is how much every one grew up like, mentaly? Maybe thats not the word, lol. But seeing all the events in pictures is just odd. We came a long ways in one year though, that much is true. I'm just wondering how much farther we are going we are going to be a year from right now. Seems like so much happens in such a short time. But I only notice how much realy did happen when I look back on it.- ~JJ
ps, merry christmas!!!!!!!!! December 09 ~The Value of a Friend~Ecc.4:9-12
This is a verse I know at least some of you know and, at least I do, love.
Two are better then one,
Because they have a good reward
for their labor.
For if they fall, one will lift up his
compainion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls.
For he has no one to help him up. (V.9 and 10)
That pretty much sums it up right there. I often take them for granted, the few friendships I have where sombody will help me back up when I fall. And besides that "they have a good reward for their labor". You cant realy beat that. As far as I see, serving together not only furthers Gods kingdom(our goal), but there is somthing, a reward even now, that you get from it that there is realy no other way to get, that I know of.
I got a chance to talk to some of my old friends today that I havn't realy seen or talked to for a while, and, one of the bigest things I noticed is that I can see that after not seeing them for so long they seem to put on new masks. Alot of them dont have anybody that they can be real with.
So they have to put up New fake fronts.
(I am not in anyway condeming or judging them, because I have done the same thing and its not like I'm not worse then every one put together...)
Honestly, somtimes it's hard for me to see what God is doing with everthing.
But its funny cause I had a conversation today actualy that realy made me be not so much upset that more isn't getting done but, instead, makes me seethe big picture.
It's Gods plan.
My friend was saying how God, gives every one different callings. And what you can take from that is that if God has a certan person somwhere, even if that person could have it way better, that is wher God has them. and every little thing that happens is all for the good of those who love God...
This whole artlicle may sound like I'm too focused on other people, but, what it comes down to is, I wish you could be really close to God, but at the same time its fine where you are...God has you there for the good of everyone who loves him.
December 05 What am I getting myself into?Well hi,
I was just thinking today about where I am now, and where I've come from. lol.
I guess I am ashamed to say that "I don't rock as hard as I used to." But I still mosh for Jesus!
Yeah... for all you "old schooler" friends of mine I'm not the punk rocker you used to know. One of my friends was pointing out to me that I am no longer "scarry". That was almost a shock to me because I thought I would always be "scarry"... well maybe to non christians but I don't know what I'm trying to say.
Anyway! Well I have one thing to say. If you don't mean it, then dont beg God to do somthing with you and give you a dream.
Because thats what I did. And stuff happens when you ask God to make you strong by the way. Oh and if you ask him for pacientce....then get ready to pretty much die. lol. But in the end, it is realy cool to look back on what he has done with everything. Not saying its the end right now for me (lol, dont worry I'm not taking the easy way out or nothin).
Since this is a sorta lax post I guess I will talk about somthing worth your time now. And that would be africa!
Yes please pray for me. I am going to go I think. For sure now, as far as I can tell. I'm sure this is Gods will.
To much has happend... To much couincidence... If you know what I mean. There is a term I learned at World changers actualy...its call Godidence. There werent couincidences...just Godidences. And, I'm realy getting excited sO I need to go somwhere quiet and breath....lol, so pray for me, to be able to go, and to get the $$ I need and all that great stuff.
-JJ December 03 AfricaYup, thats right. Africa.
I hear so much about it, maybe because I read all I can, but still we know so little about what it is realy like to be submerged into an african culture.
I don't know how many of you guys know this but I plan to go to kenya next year. It started out almost like a joke to me, heh, go to africa, thats just crazy. It was an odd concept to me, going somwhere to do somthing, without a "word from God". Come to think of it most people, when you talk to them about it, ether feel convicted that they aren't doing somthing for God right now, or they are extremely excited to hear that sombody else is going to go for it like they do. There aren't that many "in betwean" people. Most of the time they are fully supporting you, or fully...um, unsupporting you. Lol.
The funny thing is that once you jump out of your comfort zone and start pressing forward, it is alot easyer to trust God. Somtimes you just gota have the "God will help........Maybe." attitude.
And I guess I'm not talking just with africa. It's realy a thing for every christian.
It's the difference betwean asking God for a new comandment, and doing your best to get the one he already gave you completed.
God dosn't give us a dvd of our life so that we know exactly what to do, but he did tell us personaly what he wants.
So just be bold, if God dosn't want you going a certan place or talking to a certan person about the gosple...then he has the power to stop you, lol. Don't doubt God, If people are willing to try they'r hardest to achive his Goal, then he will use them. But ONLY when they chose to serve him. Otherwise everybody just sits in church and nothing gets done....
