I google everything… and I know some of you can relate too… you know you’ve done it… on the fly proving some one wrong (sending them a link or sticking you’re smart phone in their face) “Oh look what I found!!!” What makes google so useful and what makes so many people addicted to using it? What are some things we can learn from the the biggest search engine ever?

Some times I will bid on projects calculating the time and bid according to how much time I think it will take me. many times it seems I find a project that will take 2hrs and I will do a good job on it and it ends up creeping to around 4+hrs after rounds and [...]

I am going to school and trying to work and most importantly making sure I am spending quality time with my family all together they require a lot of energy. I started one night staying up late to finish or accomplish an assignment and to counter my fatigue I used caffeine the next day. In [...]

So I have been learning more about who I am, my Identity. I am learning that I am not the bad things that people may think or say about me nor am I good things that people say or think about me. I may display those qualities from time to time but in no way [...]

I realized for a while now that I have been very comfortable but in a bad way. I like where I am, not really seeing any problems here or there and like the Pink Floyd song says “I am comfortably NUMB”. But this isn’t good because I want to live a life that is fresh [...]

I have been convicted some time now about being reliable. Saying that I would do things and putting them off or even blowing them off either intentionally or unintentionally is irrelevant (do it enough and it will start to seem intentional.) when my actions are not parallel with my words that splits me into two. [...]

An opportunity came across to our family recently to be a part of an ‘energy evangelist team’ (is what I call it.) Basically going around trying to convert people to this new energy company and receiving compensation for each convert and trying to get other converts to become energy evangelists too. I’m sure you’ve heard [...]

I haven’t written in forver wow it really has been a long time.  I have been so busy with school and have started to be consumed by webdesign… God has reminded me that web-design it what I do not who I am.  He reminded me ultimately I am doing it for Him.  I am starting [...]

I was listening to Ravi in the car (with my new Granny smith green ipod nano courtesy of my father in-law.) Driving my friend John home. On the way back Ravi spoke of how people don’t know how to be alone any more, alone with God, having time to think and really listen. When ever you [...]

I went over to my father in-laws house tonight, he really is an interesting man. There is some crazy stuff going on with that side of the family right now and my wife is really handling it well, I admire her faith and trust. Having another child on the way I know we need to start [...]

Put God in charge of your work, then what you’ve planned will take place. (Proverbs 16:3) MSG Do you ever try hard at something and work your little tail off to find out there was an easier way, better, and or more efficient way or end result.  Many times I struggle with submitting to the [...]

Today I check out matthew 6:5-13. I’ve been feeling really down and out. things seem to be falling apart, and it is not that what has been bothering me as much. This is what is bothering me too much, but rather the feeling of disconnect with God, notice I say feeling, Jesus says “Surely I [...]

The pupil is the variable-sized, black circular opening in the center of the iris that regulates the amount of light that enters the eye. It appears black because most of the light entering the pupil is absorbed by the tissues inside the eye. Proverbs 7:1-5 My son, keep my words, store up my commands with [...]

Proverbs 1:8-9 My son, heed the discipline of your father, and do not abandon the teaching of your mother; they will be a garland to grace your head, a medal of honor for your neck Proverbs 6:20-23 “My son, obey your father’s command, and don’t abandon your mother’s teaching Bind them always on your heart, [...]

1 peter 3:7 “Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers.” This seems to be a weakness of mine, being considerate, and treating [...]

Love is doing what God has commanded us and, God has commanded us to Love, remaining obedient to God is Love. Keeping Jesus’ commands “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul…& Love your neighbor as yourself.” So now that we are committed to God we are to be steadfast in that [...]

1 Peter 3:8-12 As i read this, i think about how i have treated my co-workers at the church… As co-workers not as brothers and sisters.
