I got a tumblr.

Feel free to check it out every now and then. I think I'm gonna post more motivational stuff on there and really write most of my thoughts on here. It only seems fair. I'll make it tough for people to follow me. Sorry.

On a brighter note, God is still good. Love Him. It's great going back to things you've read in the Bible. And then discovering that you totally missed something huge the countless times you've just glanced over before. For me right now, it's the book of Ephesians. As some of you may know, we started up a Bible Study over here on Monday Nights. And yes, Ephesians it is! It used to be my favorite book in the Bible. It's still up there. But just going through it slowly, dissecting it, piece by piece, rightly dividing it, this book is amazing. A commentator once wrote that the epistle to the Ephesians is one that sings. It's really beautiful. Perfectly divided in half. Chapters 1-3 being more doctrinal and 4-6 being more applicational. It talks heaps and heaps about the riches that we as believers have, currently. It's the picture of a flower in full bloom, picked by a boy to give to some girl he likes. Except, it's God we're dealing with here and we're the recipients of his endless blessings. Great book. I could go on and on, but I won't. Go read it yourself. Straight through and out loud if you're keen. That's been one of my favorite things to do as of late. Read entire books to myself straight through and out loud. Love it. Ok, we bought a pull-up bar. Well, I did. Gonna bring it back home with me too! Stoked.

Be faithful where God has you.

Not gona lie. I always do this too. Make promises to myself that I can't keep. The one at hand: keeping up with my school work. It isn't hard or anything. I just get wrapped up in other things and tend to forget to do the things I should be doing Heaps frustrating too. And the thing is, most of the time, it's just ministry stuff. Sure, Facebook, iChat, and Skype have their place, but going to the high schools, Bible Studies, and things like that sometimes take time away from what I should be doing. It sucks trying to find that balance you know? Like is there such thing as too much ministry? But then I know in my mind that I'm here for Bible College first... I guess I need to just buckle down and take care of business first: Bible College stuff, then do everything else. So much easier said than done. I hate when that happens. Lord, please help me out here. Help me to prioritize correctly. Please give me the wisdom and discernment to know when I should be doing things. All for Your glory.

Another Rainy Day In Australia

Tuesday is probably my favorite day of the week now. Why? We get money for grocery shopping for the week! I'm gonna try and eat a little healthier this week. I'm kinda lazy when it comes to cooking. And I joke around in my head sometimes thinking, "It would be SO much easier if I had a wife!" ;) Totally kidding, but seriously. I eat cereal a lot. PB&Js. Pita bread and hummus. Chips. Eggs. Wedges. And whatever Chase or the girls have extra of. I find cooking super frustrating because I'm HUNGRY the ENTIRE time I'm cooking! Lord, please send me a wife sooner rather than later! Again, I'm joking.

So I'm really loving 1 Corinthians Class so far. I love all of them actually. We just ended 1 Corinthians for the week though. SO GOOD! The book really addresses a lot of key issues that the Corinthian church faced and what we're facing in the church today. Thank You Lord for using Paul to pen down these things. Thank You Holy Spirit for speaking through Paul.

---> more to come later....grocery shopping time!
