Daylight Saving Time

Is it me, or does it seem that the older I get, the more I am beginning to loathe Daylight Saving Time. Don't get me wrong, I like the longer evenings, but I don't like the setting the clocks ahead one hour. I also don't like the fact that for the first month of DST, sunrise is at 7:30 in the morning. I kind of liked the DST the way it was before W.(George W. Bush, the former president of the U.S.) changed it to start on the second Sunday in March. Abolish DST and just use standard time like parts of Indiana, all of Arizona, and Hawaii(do an Internet search).

Happy Anniversary to the WEb

I just found out that today, March 13, 2009, marked the 20th anniversary of the World Wide Web. You know, that little thing the goes www.(insertInternetsitehere).com. It's amazing that one little device that changed the way we get information nowadays, turned 20. To read more about this newfangled thing that former V.P. Al Gore claimed to invent, click on the following link: http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/null/128271. Happy anniversary www. Peace.

I'm Rollin!

My car is fixed and I'm rollin' once again.

Carless in Houston

One thing that I have learned in the last few months, is that in Houston, if you don't have a car running, man, you're lost. My van, which I received as a Christmas gift back in December is in the car hospital again. My mechanic is going to look at it later today. It comes to find out I'm going to be without a ride for the rest of the week. And trust me, it's not cheap to get a car fixed. Oh well, that's the price you pay for having a car in Houston. It's tough, but like everything else in my life, I'll survive. Peace.

SOUL-ed out for SOUL LINK 2009

Hello again all you bloggers out there. What a weekend for Soul Link 2009. More than 1,200 teens came to Bammel Church of Christ this past weekend to get involved and become part of a climate change. Not the climate change that you normally think about as in going green, but changing your environment, with the power of Jesus Christ. I worked security for the event and it was a rewarding experience. On Friday night, I worked the area in front of the stage in the Bammel Youth Center(a.k.a. the Project). No moshing, no stage dives, all in all, everyone was on their best behavior. Saturday, I worked security again, and like last night, everyone behaved themselves. I was walking around the worship center during the final session of Soul Link and to hear 1,200 teens worhsipping God was just awesome. My favorite moment of the weekend was when a teen, who used to be a gang member, but is now a part of the family of Christians at a church in Baytown. The place went wild and in fact a standing ovation was given at that time. All this time, I really got a chance to serve as Jesus did, maybe not the the extent of being a security guard, but this was cool. I was complimented a lot about the job I was doing and in my humble personality, I just remember whom I was representing. I love Soul Link and I can't wait for next year's event(Mark your calendars: February 26-28, 2010). One thing that I learned about this year's Soul Link theme is that it you don't have to "go green" to change you environment. You just have to step out of your comfort zone and do something small to change your environment for the kingdom of God. Now that's the kind of climate change that I and everyone would like to be a part of. Peace out and God bless.

Gettin' My Praise ON!

Hello again. Chris Tomlin, Israel Houghton & New Breed were the bomb diggity! I love their music and ministry and if you have heard me, I may sound a little different after screaming and singing my brains out at a recent concert. If you ever get the chance to see them in concert, their definitely worth the price of admission. Check them out. Peace.

In HIS Presence for an audience of ONE

Hello again. I have been really feeling God's presence in my life. Ever since the spiritual renewal conference that I attended in January called SOAR, I have been worshipping God with "reckless abandon". I have really felt closer to God and I have been worshipping God like never before. I like to call it worshipping Unleashed. I guess I have been keeping things bottled up and all of a sudden now, my personal and corporate worship has been more real than ever. My personal Bible study and prayer time has been better and I'm always wanting to improve. I really am enjoying my church family and now I am starting to enjoy some really close personal relationships with some of my fellow Christian friends. I'm really amazed at what God is doing in my life and all of the praise goes to Him, the Audience of ONE.
