Ok, time for some humor-at least for me
Ok, I find this video hilarious. Maybe everyone else wont find it as funny, because I admit, I have a weird, geeky sense of humor. But I will post it anyways. Enjoy!

A Song that has been encouraging me
So, I have been transferred back to my old shop. A transfer that I did not want, but nonetheless happened. I was disappointed because I really like the shop I was at, but God has me where I am at for a reason.
Well, I was listening "Today is the Day" by Lincoln Brewster, and the phrase:
Today is the day You have made
I will rejoice and be glad in it
And I won`t worry about tomorrow
I`m giving you my fears and sorrows
Where you lead me I will follow
I'm trusting in what you say
was just really encouraging to me. God has lead me to where I am at, and He will take care of me. God has made everyday, and I will rejoice in it!
Here is a video of Lincoln Brewster singing "Today is the Day."

Cardboard Testimonies
I was watching some of these Cardboard Testimonies on Youtube. I am going to warn you, you may cry. But it shows how great our God is!

2,000 Years Ago-My Savior Lives
"My Savior loves, my Savior LIVES, my Savior is always there for me..." My Savior conquered death, securing my salvation. He suffered, He died, He rose. If He did not rose, my faith would be in vain, but He did rise; and my faith is not in vain! I can place my trust in Him, and He will not fail me!
Jesus fulfilled prophecy from the Old Testament, even all the way back to Genesis 3. God said to the serpent that the woman's offspring will crush his head, but he will bruise his heal. Christ heal was bruised 2,ooo years ago; but 2,ooo years ago, the serpent's head was crushed! Satan no longer has any power over me, because JESUS CHRIST IS RISEN!!!!

2,000 Years Ago
Two thousand years ago, a man was executed, a man who had truly done nothing wrong. And while people have been executed throughout history, and not all have been guilty of the crime they were executed for, He was the only one who truly had done nothing wrong. That man is Jesus Christ. However, on that day, He did not die alone. On either side of Him was a thief. These men were guilty; but only one saw his own guilt. Jesus died for that man, and for all who will believe. He took the guilt of that thief, so that the thief can spend eternity worshiping God!
Jesus came to this sin-cursed world, was surrounded by sinners, died surrounded by sinners, why? So that God can be glorified! That is why we are saved, so that God can be glorified. So, what do we do with that, we put Christ on display and point others to Him!
Two thousand years ago, my savior came, my savior died, so that I can glorify God! Isn't that an amazing thought. I need to put my savior on display, and I fail everyday. But one day, I will not fail, I will be able to put Christ on display without any sin! I can't wait for that day!
Soli Deo Gloria

What is friendship?
What is true friendship? We say we have friends, but do we? Here in America, we use the term "friend" almost too loosely. We say "Oh, that is my friend." But, what do we know about that person? Do we know their likes and dislikes, do we know their struggles, their passions, what makes them laugh, what makes them cry? Are we there for them when they need someone to talk to, or just someone to listen? Are we willing to die for them? Jesus said, "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." So, do we have friends. or just acquaintances?
In French, the word for friend is "ami," and a French person will not call a person, "mon ami"-"my friend" unless they were really close and knew each other well. I am happy to say that I do have several friends I can call "mes amis." Friends are a gift from God, it is only by His grace that we can have friends. And in having friends, we have a great responsibility to point them to Christ, and to make sure that the friendships are bringing glory to God.
So, those are just some things I have been thinking about recently. Sorry about not posting in a while, every time I would go to post, nothing came to mind, now something has :).
Soli Deo Gloria
