Help me understand Lord.
Is there a reason why I have to go through this? Was I getting too arrogant that it had to be this way? Last year, I struggled and came out feeling like I had some sort of idea of where and how you were leading me, and I came out feeling like you gave me a glimpse, and I was satisfied.

A New Season of Singleness...
God is playing a big practical joke on me and I don’t like it. I asked Suzanna why this was happening, and her simple reply was, “maybe he’s teaching you patience? ;)”
*sigh* Don’t get me wrong. I’m not dying to get married or have kids quite yet, but I do want it. It was different when all my other friends were single, or just in relationships, but now I’m...

If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

Once a [Chink], Always a [Chink]..
Except replace ‘Chink’ with ‘Jap’ and now I can begin.
Cold Case. One of those cop shows with a twist, because it takes cases left unsolved, and solves them years later. I like how they do the flashbacks of present time and past, so you can see who the people were and how they are now. Anyways. I was watching an episode yesterday, that really hit me in two ways.
