Everyday you learn new things. Hardship, endurance, all that stuff. Very very strange things. We make such a big deal about our hardships... but they're not hard at all. yet we FEEL as if it truly difficult/painful/all that bad stuff. So our feelings are disproportionate to reality. Isnt that strange?

Man. Man. Man. Man man man man man man man. I don't know what to type. But I thank God in His mercy. Life can be so ridiculus some times. Or maybe we are just ridiculus. God sorts me out. well I'm working on it.

I'll bet when things suck, people can just sleep, and they think it will go away. Maybe some problems do go away. quite possibly.


Ok bye everybody. I'm gonna go do some work.

Havent blogged in a long while. Mostly, I've been writing about spiritual things in my xanga because I'm able to reach a lot of people that way. But for now I'll just explain how I am doing.

I've been reading the Bible a lot, 1 Corinthinas, Philipians, some Proverbs (hopefully more). I really want to get started on 1 and 2 Timothy. By God's grace some day I can get to Revelation and understand the end times. Being very frustrated with sin. We as humans are so sinful and prone to sin against our Lord. Oh how great His mercy is. Just thinking about it blows my mind. I actually say a passage from 2 timothy 4 today. I read it and I was seriously BLOW AWAY. I couldn't believe what it said. It was how preachers preach messages that misrepresent true doctrine in order to please the listeners.

So school is going pretty well. I seem to be getting a lot of B's this quarter. although in history i got a 90% on the midterm. Whew. But yeah, good grades don't come by easy!! But really I dont worry about school. I'm pretty sure I'm going to double major in musicology, although it's not official, so don't let the word out yet guys. Essentially, I need to find another major or minor to be able to stay here for four years.

And lastly, the girl department. UGH, if you would have asked me a week ago I would have told you I was totally uninterested in girls. But like I said before, as a young single college aged person, you'll always be meeting peopel who you are attracted to personality and looks wise. It always will happen. but you need to make the correct choices regarding your initial feelings. I know that many times I've been attracted to girls, yet in only a short period of time, I would lose interest in pursuing them. I think its just at the point of first meeting a cool girl, the curiosity gets you-what kind of future would you have with this person. But yeah... God is always first, His plans are supreme, and it's my joy to honor and serve Him. Let Your will be done in my life Lord, not my own.

God bless guys! I'll be back in San Jose for the holiday weekend!

I love Grace church. Here's something my friend steve said in his xanga:

"I like being at Grace Church. Praise the Lord. At very few other churches will I receive preaching that tells me I deserve hell, as more than just a side note or a quick mention. Sink that in, and then it turns to enormous praise to our God who is so merciful to save us through Jesus Christ. Floored.

Supah sanctification power. I deserve hell. Complaining turns into praise in the snap of a finger. So sweet."

Young Christians are too often mislead by messages that encourage, but do little to change their actions and attitudes that bears Godly fruit.

I'm excited to share with Rolcc some great stuff I've been learning. It's truly been LIFE CHANGING.
