yeah yeah...

I know, it's been a long time. Needless to say things are the same and yet different all at the same time. The hunting trip ti SD got cancel at the last moment which really turned out to be a blessing. No need to get into that, there are more important things; hopefully it will work out sometime next year.

Oddly enough, I'm still having the discussion about Paul vs. Yeshua with our forum member. It's frustrating to say the least to talk to someone that clearly has blinders to the truth on. Back and forth spewing the same thing (on both sides) just gets old. I try and try to not respond and get caught up in it again, but I seem to be the only person that is willing to talk about it with him. There have only been a handful of other replies from people which I find rather sad. I'd like to think that more people would read what his is posting and step up to the plate to defend their Lord and His word to us via scripture.

Putting that aside, I'm in a place now where I really feel the Lord calling me, but I'm just not really sure for what. I'm such a shy person. I can't stand talking to strangers and I know this because I once had a job as a modeling agent. I'd have to approach people and talk to them. Needless to say that only lasted for a little over a week because for me, walking up to total strangers and striking conversation (even when loaded) is just extremely difficult. I say that to say this... It's very hard for me to speak to strangers which means it's very hard for me to be a witness of the Lord. I feel that it is a basic tenant in our faith though so I struggle with it. Get me on here and I can type all day long. I've got multiple windows open so I can search the bible and find what I'm looking for all while talking to someone. Get me face to face and I just draw blanks. I think part of it is just getting used to doing it, but I fight myself over it and win.

DiG Outreach is a really cool place. Some of the guys from the forums started this up a couple/few years ago and I commend them for what they do. It intrigues me as it's something I struggle with.

Moving on... the family is good, nothing major going on. My grandma on the other hand isn't doing so well and it's really hard to watch her come to the final stages of life. I pray that she doesn't suffer or live in indignation in her last days. I saw my grandpa (her husband) like that in his last days and it haunts me to this day. So much so that I haven't visited her in over a week. It's selfish, I know, but seeing her in distress just really stresses me and .... well.... it's tough.

Until Next Time.... whenever that may be.
