Why I Still Believe in God
December 28, 2008
The fact is, no one has succeeded in disproving Him for me.
And We Call Ourselves Christians!
November 17, 2008
I’d say about 1 in 1,000 “Christians” have actually read the bible from cover to cover. Now this is a totally unfactual guess, but the point isn’t the numbers, its the fact that few of us have actually read everything.
I admit, I’m one of these lazy people who haven’t. However…I have started. I am now on page 9, Genesis 12. Praise the Lord!
This brings me to my second point — modern Christianity. We expect our pastors to tell the complete truth, but that’s too bad, because everyone’s interpretations are different, aren’t they? It would be best if we all developed our own opinions and knew all the facts, so no one could lie to us.
So I encourage everyone, read the bible.
Learn from your mistakes
November 10, 2008
Perhaps you’ve realized that we are constantly learning from our mistakes in life, spiritual and otherwise. From the stupid mistakes we’ve made to the seemingly strange choices, we move forward and gain something from our past tribulations.
Specifically, I’ve found this really nice story. It’s about a man who used to be an atheist, not just an atheist, but someone totally living his contrary to how we should be living.

It’s a long 10-20 minute read, but it’s worth it. It’s definitely worth it.
This blog…
November 6, 2008
I’m making this blog into more of a Christian themed blog, as I have changed my blog message/subtitle thing from more of a personal oriented phrase to a general-Christian one.
I’ll continue with the occassional personal posts, but I’m adding more supportive spiritual content, for anyone who comes here in the future (few people
) and sees it.
Maybe they’ll learn something.
I know I learn from my own posts sometimes, especially when I fail. Oh wait, that means always.

THERES NO WAY TO DESCRIBE GOD, HES JUST TOO DARN AMAZING.
WE CAN TRY AS HARD AS WE CAN TO DESCRIBE HIM, BY WORD, IMAGE, ACTION, BUT IT DOESNT WORK.
BUT HOW BOUT OUR THOUGHTS? THE THINGS IN OUR MIND, OUR FAITH.

Realization
October 12, 2008
Developing your relationship with God, getting to know him – how do we really do this?
It changes from person to person and the way you get to know him, I’ve been thinking of some ways, or steps rather.
STEPS TO FULL REALIZATION OF GOD
- Realization of possibility – that there could be such a thing
- Realization of need – whether thankfulness, guidance, hope, etc.
- Realization of weakness – self-weakness, humbleness
- Realization of others – Get rid of worshiping yourself
- Realization of failure – accepting everyday and more general spiritual failures
- Realization of realization – you’ll never fully realize God on earth
- Realization of redemption – it’s all good
I’ve realized that my life is truly a failure. I live for myself and think of myself .. all the time. God, help me, and I realize that I am weak, fail, and need you.
5 DAY WEEKEND!
October 7, 2008
YAY! I love how my school is 30k a year but it has less school days than most other schools because of the early school year finish and the unreasonable but gladly accepted number of off days.
But afterwards I’m getting my Quarter 1 grades. *Shiver*
I’m hoping a minimum 3.5, hopefully more like a 3.6-3.7, and if all goes amazing a 3.8+
Time to plan out weekend.
Thursday-relax probably, xcountry practice…
Friday-relax again, xcountry practice again, either tennis or fellowship
Saturday-WHO KNOWS
Sunday-church and probably homework
Monday-chillllllllllll with friends
