Ramble On

I wish I was a consistent blogger. In fact, I feel like many ideas and thoughts escape me to which I think..."I should blog more so I can remember all those neat thoughts or ideas". Of course, I don't blog those thoughts. But alas, I'm sitting here tonight re-reading some old posts and thought, well no better time than the present (as my Dad always says). So I'm half way into my second semester here at Candler. I am learning quite a bit, but honestly I'm forgetting quite a bit too. It's kind of frustrating. We speed through so much so quickly that it seems impossible to remember it all. Lately my favorite class has been Interpretation of the Old Testament with Dr. LeMon. He's a pretty great teacher, in fact he reminds me quite a bit of a Buckley. I'm sure if he met Jack or Alex, he'd feel right at home. We've been covering the Psalms and Prophets. Both carry such great depth. I've always valued understanding context to what I read i

Random Thought

I was re-reading some older post from the past couple of months. (wasn't hard since I haven't been posting anything...) As I was reading... We don't accomplish opportunities so that it's "enough". It's not the mindset to say ahh I've done enough for today for God. We just do. We be. We are acting on opportunities.

It's not what should I do, but rather who should I be. It's my mindset and DNA. "...have the same mindset as Jesus Christ." Phil 2:5

A (belated) toast

It was an incredible honor to be in my sister and (now) brother-in-law's wedding this past week. Both Hannah (matron of honor) and I were in the lineup next to them on their special day. It was definitely one of the most unique wedding I'll probably ever be a part of: a wedding on New Year's Eve where the reception happened first and the vows and kiss right at midnight. It was a really awesome night! There were a number of times in which I was planning on offering a toast for both Doug and Amy. Honestly this is not something I really want to do, but get asked to "say word" more often these days. However this was different. Amy and Doug have both been special people in my life, and I was excited to be able to offer up a toast to their honor. So what happened? I didn't get the chance! It just kept alluding me, and alas I wasn't able to properly give them my appreciation in front of everyone. Not this kind of toast... So I decided I'd at least
