>I’ve been thinking about what I was thinking about yesterday. I want trials to persevere through. It has been said to me before, “well of course you love Jesus, you have no troubles in your life.” Okay, I believe that I would love Jesus even if He did make me the next Job. I am…
>I’m struggling with the adjustment. I have to be honest. I have up days and down days and up hours and down hours. Overall (but not quite overwhelmingly), my joy is in the Lord. I am content, more than content, really. Paraphrase 1 Thess. 5 and Phil 4: “Be joyful always and content in all…

>So I’m single now by the way. As of two days ago, a seven month date is over. I listened to a Breakaway sermon titled “The Gift of Singleness” while I drove to H-town yesterday and that was exceedingly helpful in steering me in the right direction. As exciting as it half-way sounds, I don’t…

>James 4:13-16 Semi-ParaphrasedCome now you who [make your own plans], yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring… Instead you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this and that.” As it is, you boast in your arrogance and that is evil. Proverbs 19:21Many are the plans…
