New

In my last post, I wrote about how I would like us to start taking our blogs and living them out.  But today, I was thinking back about what good blogging did for me.  You know how sometimes, you get those thoughts that really are interesting to you, but may not spark other people's interests?  It happens to me a lot because I really enjoy Math and Science, and understanding how the world works in very general (but accurately based) theories.  I have decided to begin dedicating a new blog to exactly that train of thought. It is going to be mainly Christian based, but the entire purpose will be to explore new ideas about our world, why things work the way they do, and why we do the things we do.  It may not be updated frequently, but I hope you enjoy the things I will begin to share there.

Thanks, and may God be with you always. (:

Taking Out

So for anyone who has followed me, you may notice I no longer post on a regular basis.  It may seem as though I have slacked off from a project that I started, but dear bloggers, I must say it is a better reason than that.  I am using my thoughts and my words at school, both in everyday conversation and situations, and in Friday's Student-lead Chapel program.  As one of our two school Chaplains, I have been blessed with the opportunity to share my thoughts with my entire High School and Middle School, and hopefully leave a bigger impact on my world.  Writing these blogs has helped shape how I view the world and how I approach different situations in my life, and now I am taking what I am learning and putting it out in the real world.

I really would like to encourage you, if you write a blog of your own or if you have been considering doing one, to try to move your thoughts into actions out in the world. Keep writing if it helps, like it did me, but in the mean time pray and watch for ways to take what you write and make it happen in your world.  You never know, I have received "thank you"s from people whom I would have never expected to be impacted by my God's words that I have spoken for Him.  When an opportunity arises, take a risk; maybe this is God's will for your life, and he is just waiting for you to take the step!

Don't be afraid, for God is with us, his children, and he will give you the words to speak, like Moses, as long as you listen to his voice.  Pray and stay in his Word, and may you be a blessing to all who meet you.

"With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness and your every deed prompted by faith.  We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ."
