I’ve been studying the book of John lately. Tonight I was reading chapter three, and the Lord really spoke to me.
The study I have raises some really great questions and makes me think past simple answers, causing me to learn and understand.
In this chapter of the study, one of the questions- more of a command [...]

Have a Good Day
This semester I’m lucky enough to be able to eat breakfast in our cafeteria everyday, something I never was able to do before. I like it so much, because it’s very slow paced and I have plenty of time to do as I wish before class.
I normally eat breakfast by myself -there are normally about [...]

I’ve Left My Heart In China
…but I’ve never even been there.
Each Monday, Wednesday and Friday I fall in love with China all over again. See, I’m taking an Elementary Chinese course this semester, and I have just grown so close to the culture and language. My professor is an amazing lady from the Shandong province of China. She has such [...]

Ananias and His Wife
Today I’ve felt unfocused, confused, and both mentally and physically sick. During my classes I was unable to pay attention and write notes…I couldn’t carry on a conversation with a person I normally talk to for hours on end…and I also just wanted to do nothing but sleep because I felt so gross inside, like [...]

I find interest in people who spend their lives in and out of prison, people who have traveled the world over, people who live to experience, and people who’s lives are full of stories from all they have done. Today I was lucky enough, though it [...]

Just two days ago I made a huge decision. It had been in the works for a couple months now, and I guess if you want to get technical, it’s been in the works for just over 3 years now. Saturday I [...]

Count Your Blessings
Continuing on with my walk through the New Testament of the Bible, I read Mark 5 today. Here is what I feel led to say about it.
Jesus, in the first part of this chapter, heals a man who is demon possessed. The man, once he sees Jesus, runs toward him and begins to worship Jesus. [...]

Ok, here it is…
So I’ve been trying to figure out what I wanted t o write about my recent trip to Los Angeles, California, but have struggled so much with what to write. Several people in the group have taken lots of liberty in writing, and have 10-15 pages in their journals and such, and I’m just sorta [...]

5-8-2008 Reading
I’ve almost reached the end of the Book of Matthew. Today I read chapter 27 of Matthew and Psalm 27.
One thing that stood out to me in Matthew was how in verse 54 the centurion finally declared that Jesus was the son of God.
It makes me think, how much does it take for us to [...]
