Sports?

Today was supposed to be sports as we normally do. but this time is was more like. hockey for 15 minutes. then soccer for about 20. then grounders for a while. only most of us went around as monkeys and climbed high or was swinging around each part without touching the ground once. then later on we had fun around the table and climbed up into the roof covering it. then on I got on top of it. Then I tried getting on top of the building near by. which i also climbed with the help of a poll on the other side of the building. although I had to get down because people kept trying to follow me and there parents didn't want them too. I think we climbed and played grounders for a good hour. or so. 1 of us showed me a good tree to climb. sadly it hurt a lot too. I got cuts and marks up and down my arms. they went away quickly tho which was nice. All and all it was fun. and now we have Gab, and Sam here from the cote's. along with Emily from sports.

Lia is also starting soccer. so far she has lost a game and tied a game. and she is really wanting to play her friends team this next week. on that note. Wendy's is having a soccer game against Mc.D this Wednesday night. i wanted to play but then i saw when it was. oh well i just hope we win in more then just food. :)

Work as been good. Management like loves me its weird. Mike who is the boss stopped me randomly in rush and said good job on the grill. but nothing to anyone else. as he left he also said thank you again Joe. Rob who is head manager said your the man today. and other times he says good job, or gives me free meals or frosty. or mixed frosty or what ever kind. Dianna at work helps me out of any problems. then she thanks me afterward. i said no its because of your help i got this done. In the end i give God the praise for the help I get. he has been blessing my work. and helping me find people to talk too.

Now for a poem because my mom happens to want 1 out of me.....

In War


In War the times seem failing
In War the days seem forever
In War you dwell on the dieing
In War you never forget them ever

In War Those once tall buildings stood
In War they fell as did your friends
In War you did as hard as you could
In War you try to make amends

In War the fighting comes on
In War the hiding done
In War the lines are drawn
In War you wish it never begun


Yeah i know it could use some work but hey.. it only took few minutes


Well I've got some exercise to do now. I hope you all have a good day.

As asked for.

I have had in the past as many kids should have... teaching from our parents on making a line between the World and Godliness. A line that shouldn't be crossed over. But because of his love and mercy those who do can be forgiven for crossing that line. I have set up a wall with my self online and on personal life, both are important. That I won't allowed of my self or say of anyone else I'm with. No Cussing.... No Sex jokes... Do not hang around friends that do this a lot. My friends have said somethings.. that I probably should of left because of. but as a friend I don't give up on them.. so I remind them, thats not right.. and I really don't want to hear it. I have also has Job had done set a watch on my eyes.. very important for boys... the majority of boys fall into self sin of the lust of the eyes. Also I have found as many other have that hanging around friends that talk these ways.. Will put the thoughts of doing it your self at times... so put those thoughts behind don't let them take you into sin. Prayer is needed at these times. And remember God is in control of your life. if He wants you away from your friends He will make it so... for me, God had me work and since then I haven't been hanging with my friends as much. same for the internet. I am able to witness to people and not have the cussing or jokes. I find God has opened that door to me. I'm failing in person on witnessing. but he is using me online and at the same time getting me away from my friends so I'm not around there talk. I still care for them and won't forget them in prayer and I do still visit them. For those that are in trouble with sins as these Prayer is needed.. confession is needed to who ever it is against don't let it sit inside you, hiding it will only cause judgment on you more so. At Work I have also had my share of "conversations". As I have also found the only way to with care to tell someone that you don't go out to parties.. or drink... is with Prayer before going to work. Start each day with prayer this is very important, it will change your whole day. Trust me on that.

I will write more on this another time

Working mornings... AGAIN!!!!

Yes this next week I'm working mornings. its bothersome to me to get up any earlier then 8 but that just happens to be when I have to start working. I don't mind it to much but as it happens I'm quite used to working later on in the day. I normally work mid-day. which is normally the most boring time of the day so thats why I don't really mind this work.


Chris and Nate are all moved in and left the house's. Now I do believe somehow girls in both families from which they came get the first bids on the rooms. so I'm still stuck with only half a room and Sarah and Kaylyn now have new rooms. Kaylyn needs the basement room for the Summer so that it doesn't get to hot at night for her to sleep like it does up stairs. Oh well maybe sometime I will be able to have one. The moving of his stuff was okay too. as I would say time consuming but productive. not to mention I also got some Wendy's food bought by Chris for my lunch. Now I do believe they got everything they need but most likely, knowing Chris and Nate, They probably forgot something at home. I think we still have some of Nate's stuff here.


Now for everyone who wants me to write more... To bad. I just don't write that much, and I'm sure some of you know what I'm talking about when I say I don't know what to write about or I don't really feel like it. I have been busy with work and school junk. and a bothersome Fever/Virus. So yea about that point. It took about 4 days for Fever to leave and about 1 week for the Virus to leave and let me eat right again. and the cough is still here which has lasted 2 weeks as the doctor said most likely would happen. But I'm well enough to do basically to do anything I normally would. except for eat as much as I used to.... Its sad I can't eat a up-sized Spicy Chicken Combo anymore.....


Funny quotes from People going threw the drive threw at work...

3rd place : Whats a Combo??
2nd place : OHH I thought you were that Girl's voice... (said to my friend Scott about the drive threw person who was a girl)
1st place : Yea. can I have a pizza?

Hymn history.....

Because he lives

In the late 1960s, Bill and Gloria Gaither, already well-known Christian musicians, were dealing with many personal struggles. Bill was recovering from mononucleosis, the couple had been accused of using their ministry to turn a profit and the family had been devastated by Bill's sister's divorce. Gloria was expecting her third child, but the couple was saddened by the thought of bringing another child into a world filled with racial tension, drug abuse and negative attitudes toward Christianity. After a friend prayed for the couple, they were both overcome with affirmation of Jesus' ressurection and assurance that God would take care of them. Inspired by the birth of healthy son Benjamin in 1970, the Gaithers wrote 'Because He Lives.'


What a friend we have in Jesus

"What a Friend We Have in Jesus" is a Christian hymn originally written by Joseph M. Scriven as a poem in 1855 to comfort his mother who was living in Ireland while he was in Canada. Scriven originally published the poem anonymously, and only received full credit for it in the 1880s.[1] The tune to the hymn was composed by Charles Crozat Converse in 1868. William Bolcom composed a setting of the hymn. The hymn also has many versions with different lyrics in multiple languages, such as the Japanese version "Itsukushimi Fukaki" (いつくしみ深き? lit. "Deep Affection"), or a version sung during World War I with the line "When this bloody war is over" in place of the original title.[2]


Just as I am

Charlotte Elliot wrote this song about how to find salvation through Christ. It has been used by many as the call to the altar at the close of services, as it brings a quiet simple message of sin, forgiveness, and salvation to all that listen. Just as I am

An elderly man asked Charlotte Elliott if she were a Christian; she felt insulted, and told him to mind his own affairs. But after the man left, she could not get the question off her mind, and she went back to ask the man how to find Christ. He told her to come just as she was. She did, and wrote the beautiful song, "Just As I Am." - By B. A. Scherr

Jill's birthday

Yesterday was Jill's bday and I went something like this at the start.



I wake up with just about nothing happening but my Mother said she had to go to a meeting soo I was here with Lia doing school.... I'm sorry to say this Jill but I didn't remember your birthday until you called... ok well with that said. Jill called and started singing happy birthday.. which confused me cus I didn't know anyone had one that day. then she wanted me to sing it for her. (Which then reminded me who's birthday it was) but I wasn't in the mood for singing on the phone so I just got her message about. cookies being made for desert. after Mom got home we went into things for Jill. I got cleaning the car. with my mom. Lia was making a picture board that looks pretty cool. even if the people don't look to great still.. its creative. I don't remember how many times I got myself wet cleaning the car. All I know is that I kept getting wet and it kept drying off before I got to see how much of me was wet. later on I got really wet on one leg and it stayed for sometime..... but all in all I got it done.. Mom got the inside done. neither of us did the front window mind you. we did the outside but.... that didn't help much. still it looks nice again. The car also passed the safety test... on behalf of Jill Thank you pastor for that work done to fix it up. Maybe next time your working a car I can watch and help...

For supper we had Pizza even tho I didn't.. I had potatoes and groundbeef with veggies. what I really wanted to talk about was the desert. frozen yogurt mint chocolate chip with apple pie... ^o^ sorry I'm weird.. lol

I don't really remember what she got for presents at the table. I would of named them too. but I'm done with this post. time to get back to reading my books from the Library.

Happenings and Music History

Well so far I am doing ok with wendys tho I would like saturdays off, because thats when everything happens that needs doing. Chris and Nate are trying to get a place of there own. and Chris is also trying to get a new job that won't take such a high toll on his body. He was going to stay home today but his boss asked him to stay.


I've had chances to talk to more people on salvation this last weekend. They told me they wanted to know more the next day and the next. so I've had good times of witnessing. They asked questions about Death, creation, the cross, Where God came from, How are we saved, and am I a sinner. So I told them about creation and the cross I opened up to Ephesians and Revelations. On how we are saved and How he is coming again and where his people will be going. so it was good. They said they would like to know more. Praise God. I've had something like 6 different people who I've had chances to speak to. and most received it well. I've been talking to the Scott(mormon friend) He asked more questions about the Trinity. Keep Praying for Scott and Kev my other friend who is also a Christian. there are a few more that dont give names. but that I would know what to say.

About the person who made Moment by Moment........ All the I's is meaning Dr. Murray I do believe I could be wrong.....

While I was at­tend­ing the World’s Fair in Chi­ca­go [Il­li­nois], Hen­ry Var­ley, a lay preac­her from Lon­don, said to Ma­jor Whit­tle: “I do not like the hymn ‘I need Thee ev­ery hour’ ve­ry well, be­cause I need Him ev­ery mo­ment of the day. Soon af­ter Ma­jor Whit­tle wrote this sweet hymn…[He] brought the hymn to me in man­u­script a lit­tle lat­er, say­ing that he would give me the co­py­right of both the words and mu­sic if I would print for him five hund­red co­pies on fine pa­per, for dis­trib­ut­ing among his friends. His daugh­ter, May Whit­tle, who lat­er be­came the wife of Will R. Moo­dy, com­posed the mu­sic. I did as Mr. Whit­tle wished; and I sent the hymn to Eng­land, where it was co­py­right­ed on the same day as at Wash­ing­ton.

In Eng­land the hymn be­came ve­ry pop­u­lar. Fall­ing in­to the hands of the well-known Rev. An­drew Mur­ray, of South Af­ri­ca, then vi­sit­ing Lon­don, he adopt­ed it as his fa­vo­rite hymn. A year lat­er Mr. Mur­ray vi­sit­ed North­field [Mas­sa­chu­setts], and while hold­ing a meet­ing for men in the church he re­marked, “If Sank­ey on­ly knew a hymn which I found in Lon­don, and would sing it, he would find that it em­brac­es my en­tire creed.”

I was very anx­ious to know what hymn it was, and when he had re­cit­ed it I said to him: “Doc­tor, that hymn was writ­ten with­in five hun­dred yards of where we are stand­ing.”

For years Dr. Mur­ray had his wife sing this hymn in near­ly all his meet­ings. It al­so be­came a great fa­vo­rite in South Af­ri­ca dur­ing the war.


Dying with Jesus, by death reckoned mine;
Living with Jesus, a new life divine;
Looking to Jesus till glory doth shine,
Moment by moment, O Lord, I am Thine.

Refrain

Moment by moment I’m kept in His love;
Moment by moment I’ve life from above;
Looking to Jesus till glory doth shine;
Moment by moment, O Lord, I am Thine.

Never a trial that He is not there,
Never a burden that He doth not bear,
Never a sorrow that He doth not share,
Moment by moment, I’m under His care.

Refrain

Never a heartache, and never a groan,
Never a teardrop and never a moan;
Never a danger but there on the throne,
Moment by moment He thinks of His own.

Refrain

Never a weakness that He doth not feel,
Never a sickness that He cannot heal;
Moment by moment, in woe or in weal,
Jesus my Savior, abides with me still.

Refrain
