What is all this?

When Jamin said "what do you think about blogging?" I did not want to do it. I have never been a big fan of blogging, to be quite honest with you. It is not because I do not like it, it is because I do not have, or should I say, make time to do it. Usually I find something better to do. I love talking about my life, but writing about it does not make sense. I know people are going to disagree with me, but I do not care.

The past couple of weeks have been busy for me. I have had to get stuff done for school, and it seems that everything else as taken a back seat. It use to not be like that because I did not care about school because I knew that I would graduate, sometime. Now, that I have moved down to Montgomery, school is a priority because I want to get it done.

As you know, I usually tell you what I have had for lunch on Tuesday. But as I said before, I have slacked off this blogging thing. There have been so many lunches that I can't remember. If I could remember, I am sure that I would tell you about them because that is what we do in blogs. Was that a sarcastic statement?

Well, I have got to go cook me a grilled chesse. Humm...I can taste the butter, already.

Remember

March has come and gone, and so did my birthday. Everybody involved was happy for me. Remember my top 10 for March. Well, March 31st was a great day. I can't remember what I did on that day, but I am sure it was wonderful. I do remember one thing...I wished one of my friends Happy Birthday. I relaxed at home, and it was good day.

Since the month of March, I have switched banks. AmSouth did me wrong, and I had to switch banks, so that I would not lose anymore money. I switched to Wachovia, and it was a big decision for me because I had been with AmSouth for five years, and they have never caused me any problems, but I could not stand loosing $72, again. Usually, I would be content and stay, but one thing that they did not have was over-draft protection. Over-draft protection is when you do not have the right amount of money for something in one bank account, and it comes out of your other account. AmSouth did not have this, so they charged me with a payment. I was boiling mad.

I am so ready for tomorrow. One of my youth minister friends is coming into town, from Tennessee, and I haven't seen him since January. This guy is one of my best friends. We have known each other for about 10 years. I was in his wedding, and he has truely been a blessing in my life. There was this one time when we got so bored that we made these (I really do not know what you call it), but we took aluminum foil and Draino, and mixed and shook it up in a coke bottle, and we set it off in one of our friend's yard, and they called the fire department on us. It made a big boom! Oh, it was so much fun, but we vowed not to do that again because our friend got real mad. So, you see how he has been a blessing in my life. God, has used Brent to cheer my up my days when things have gotten me down. It is a great friendship.

I got a late birthday present from Jackson Garrett, Tuesday night. I have been telling him that I can not have pets in my apartment, but he got me one, anyways. He got me a Chea-Pet, or head. I will let you know how it is growing, and full it gets. I expect it to be ugly, but who knows. Early indications is that I will probably grow out a mullet, or a mo-hawk. You have any suggests, let me know.

Look for my blog about my car in a couple of days. Your my boy, blue, green, or whatever you want to call it.

Needs

Many of you know that my internship ends up in December. I know it is April, and I have 8 more months till I am in a new job. I have been deciding on rather I should go into full-time ministry. When I started, I never thought that it was possible to do what I have been doing for the past year, but God did. I have learn that he will guide and lead you, you just got to let him take control. So many times we think that we can handle everything, ourselves, but we can't. I found this out the hard way when I was first applying for internships. The other day I was praying that God would take control of job search that has begun. God is going to put me were he sees best. It is hard to think about doing ministry, somewhere else because I have spent my whole year learning to do ministry under Jamin. Just having to learn teen's names, all over, again, is one thing that I am not looking forward to, but it is like Jamin said the other day, "I have got to and do ministry, somewhere else." There are other teenagers who need know that God does love them, and that is what keeps me doing ministry. It is not about me, it is about sharing Jesus with others, and I have to keep on reminding myself of that. Also, I have got to remind myself that I am just an intern learning what it means to be youth minister, and the things that I learn, I will be able to use when I go into ministry.

Please be praying for the church that, Lord willing that I will be a minister to, and please praying for me as a minister, and for my job situation.

I have heard many times, from many people (Jamin included) that I need woman. I have heard it so many times from teenagers, as well. Well, I am here to tell you that I do. I am not ashamed of admitting it. I am looking forward to a day when I am not afraid to date, and when girls are not afraid of me. I do not see any reason why girls are afraid to get to know me. Why do girls think that going out as friends means dating. I think the first thing in a relationship is friendship, then a relationship. I have been so confused with this, since last Novemeber. I think of myself as I nice guy, but I just do not understand it. I know that God will provide someone, and it is on God's timing.
