How To Save A Life
By The Fray

So here is an entry from a long time ago... August 14, 2004 I believe...

So I found this entry from a while back and read over it and realized that even back then I knew truth, knew how certain things had to be played out, and yet over time I either strayed or tried to force my own way.  I am excited because as I read this I am just realizing that the Lord is soverign and brought me back to a state where my ways are aligned with His! PTL! [that's praise the Lord! for those who don't know :O)]

It is long I know, but I think it is worth reading if you would like insight in my psyche...


"Ok so here's the deal.  It is about 1:30 in the am when I started this entry and whatever time it reads out on the post is how long I spent working on this.  I hope that it didn't wind up taking too much time, simply for the fact that this entry is going to be stupid for the most part, but here goes nothing...

Ok I just got done watching 13 going on 30 and might I say that this movie is actually really awesome.  First of all let's just throw the fact that Jennifer Garner is quite possibly the most attractive 30 year old that I know of and if there is any one to argue this point, please do so... i would hate to get trapped in a closed minded system.  Secondly, this movie is a romantic little chick flick with a weak plot but a good love story and a sappy ending.  Now please don't misunderstand the word choice that I use here.  I mean there is nothing that wasn't sappy about the ending, but it was one of those endings that totally fill your heart and mind and make you long for things like love and a relationship. 

Nay, though, on the fact that it can be with anyone.  No, instead, I do not long for just a relationship anymore; I long for something deeper, something spiritual, something that will quench the hunger and thirst that I have.  I know that this truly comes from a deeper, committed relationship with Jesus and living out our Father's commandments that He lays out for us in the Bible.  I know these things to be accurate and true.  I know that by Faith we are all saved and by Faith in God The Father will overcome any void/trouble/toil that this life may throw at us.

I know that the first step to having a successful and beautiful relationship that can be cultivated into a fairy tale romance ( take that loosely ) is to have a committed relationship based on Jesus Christ.  I know that to be true for the sake of both parties of the relationship.  That's not to say that you can't both have faults or strengths, because undoubtedly we all have these things.  Most definitely will the woman I marry be so much stronger in her Faith than I am that she can only help me to grow in very specific areas, but likewise I will be with a woman who knows my thoughts and actions as well as I do and will, too, benefit and only grow from a deeper more committed relationship to one another.  Just as the Church submits itself to Jesus who then follows the Guidance of His Father.  The woman submits to her husband who follows the callings of Jesus, the Lord, and the Holy Spirit.  It is Biblical by nature.

That is partially what this message is about.  It is about bringing the good news of being prepared.  To be prepared is to be confident.  Over confidence promotes boasting and we have nothing to boast about for our works are not our own.  We all know that!  The only thing and the only one we can boast in is the Lord, Our God, The Father Almighty... Jesus, The Holy Son.... and the Unbreakable Holy Spirit that dwells inside of us [that God has placed upon our weak flesh].  We can be prepared and confident to face such relationships in life if we have proper training and background.  Know Jesus, who will bring us all to God!  Serve the Lord!  Do not sit around with our inherant idle nature and let the opportunities to act out our love for our Father pass us by.  To show love for The Father and to attempt to bring glory to His HOLY Name, is to be blessed in and of itself.

My words that I offer are but a meek glimpse into the realm of knowledge held by the Bible.  If I am falsely portraying anything, may I be shut up and locked away, for the Bible even states that false prophets and teachers will receive an even worse sentence on the day of judgement.  I pray that I am not one of these. 

I only ask that before a relationship forms, that God and Jesus are the sole focus of your life.  With these things in place, so everything else will fall in accordingly.  I do not know if you are still reading, and if you are God Bless you because I know that my words are often times confusing and I apologize for that but the randomness of thoughts that come through my head often times lead to profound statements or thoughts later on for me... so whatever I may be typing now may be cultivated later and understood at a later time and date.

I want to bring myself out of a spiritual talk and a philisophical talk and into more a secular realm right now.  I just want to say that I long for a deep, passionate, spiritual, personal, intimate relationship.  I long for the warmth of a hold, the depth of involvment, the complexity and the simplicity that only a family can bring.  I yearn for just someone to share my day with [and maybe even my nights with, but not like that...]  I want rainbows and butterflies, but to get these things it must take compromise (altered to fit from a Maroon 5 song)...  but in all seriousness I want the wonderful feeling of Cloud 9, of bring SO HIGH and RICH in affection that I could go crazy, and while I know that we are not meant to stay at this level forever, and I know the opposite usually follows this time... I just wish I had someone to go through the great and the worse with.  The Great and the Worse.... scratch that, I want someone to go through the Greatest and the Worst with.  I mean seriously a ship in the harbor is safe... but that isn't what it's built for.  The price of victory is high, but so are the rewards.  I want someone to share the absolute best points of my life with, and someone to stand next to as we go through the worst.  I've been greatful for this solitude that I've been given and I will continue to embrace it so long as the Lord have me to, but I am ready and willing to open my heart and mind and to free myself from whatever constraints may be there now.

To conclude all of this, I just want to say that the absolute most important thing that can be done is to have Jesus Christ your sole focus.  By this, that means that your life is not going to be perfect, because that is impossible, but it means that you are not lost but instead provided rest if you ask but to seek it.  It means that we have something to shoot for.  It means that we are now connected through Jesus to God, Our Father!  It means that our alignments are correct and that we are putting the number 1 priority where the number 1 priority should be and with that nothing else can bring us down [though the devil will try, because he will see you as a threat]  Things will fall into place, and events will happen as they should as long as we focus our days/nights and our breath on to Jesus and on bringing God as much glory as we can muster up to give Him!  Good night, go in peace and may God bless you!"

class starts in less than 8 hours... i am still awake... what am i doing?

I can't sleep, too much on the mind... I miss people, I miss normalcy, I miss diving into the word, I only get to do it like 45 minutes a day and that isn't enough, I miss jammin on the guitar, I miss road trips....

...

This is going to
Bring me clarity
This’ll take the
Heart right out of me

She is everything I need
That I never knew I wanted
She is everything I want
That I never knew I needed


So yeah, I'm pretty excited about life. There are minor things I am not excited about and the primary of those things being school right now, but I'll get over that quickly when I see how little of it I have left. yay!

I am pretty stoked about BCM starting and meeting new people.  I am also stoked about the road trips and life outside of school this year.  I know that there are many things in store and I am eager to experience them.  I do know that I have a LOT of work to do this year and it MUST get done.  With the grace of the Lord it will! 

I am pretty much ready for things to start falling in place, but the otter in me is ok with the disorganization right now.  LION-OTTER-BEAVER-RETRIEVER... yay!

Alrighty, well I am going to go get the rest of my room cleaned now, have a great afternoon!
