The Reason I Stay With 196

Considering I deal with blasphemy, cadets joking about sleeping with me, being laughed at for my faith, trying to control indecent talk...I often wonder even now, especially when people ask me, why I stay at 196. Until I get this.



(7:56:14 PM) Jenny: you only have to do the odd numbered questions

(7:56:47 PM) Holly Mae: ah thank God (Y)

(7:56:54 PM) Jamie : xD...

(7:57:05 PM) Jamie Y entered the room.

(7:57:12 PM) Holly Mae: brb

(7:57:37 PM) Sian Jones: Amen.

(7:57:51 PM) Jamie Y: heyy

(7:58:04 PM) Jamie : sian

(7:58:16 PM) Jamie : why's God always called 'he'?

(7:58:24 PM) Holly Mae:

(7:59:10 PM) Jamie Y: lol

(7:59:16 PM) Sian Jones: Sorry.

(7:59:35 PM) Jamie : why's God always called 'he'?

(8:00:09 PM) Sian Jones: Just getting the right answer. :P

(8:00:17 PM) Jamie : okie :P

(8:00:21 PM) Jenny: holly i have the answers

(8:01:05 PM) Jenny: calculator

(8:01:11 PM) Holly Mae: I FOUND THE ANSWER PAPER

(8:01:18 PM) Jamie Y: lol

(8:01:22 PM) Holly Mae: live = saved

(8:01:39 PM) Sian Jones: Because Scripture is God-breathed and God-inspired, and
it says that He is.

(8:01:46 PM) Sian Jones: Also, Jesus came as a Man.

(8:02:15 PM) Holly Mae: just because he had a beard everybody says hes a man :/

(8:02:16 PM) Jamie : sexist

(8:02:46 PM) Sian Jones: He was a Man because the Scripture says so.

(8:02:50 PM) Jamie Y: is god a scientist?

(8:02:53 PM) Jenny: but it doesn't give you the working and its confusing 'cause
its for all levels

(8:02:54 PM) Jamie : oh ok =)

(8:03:07 PM) Holly Mae: brb :)

(8:03:15 PM) Sian Jones: If God created the universe, do you not think He created
mathematics and science? ;)

(8:03:36 PM) Jamie : it all started with the big bang

(8:03:37 PM) Jamie : BANG

(8:03:45 PM) Sian Jones: Scientific proof?

(8:03:45 PM) Jamie Y: i bet God made the big bang

(8:03:54 PM) Jenny: big bang :)

(8:03:55 PM) Sian Jones: Even now, it's still called the THEORY of evolution.

(8:04:03 PM) Jamie : stephen hawking is a vegetable with a big brain

(8:04:07 PM) Jenny: lol

(8:04:12 PM) Sian Jones: Why would God lie about the way that He created the
world?

(8:04:30 PM) Jenny: never take life seriously; nobody gets out alive anyway

(8:04:31 PM) Jamie : why does God say that gays should be stoned to death??

(8:04:46 PM) Jamie Y: maybe the guy who wrote the bible made a mistake ;)

(8:04:52 PM) Jamie : xD


(8:05:04 PM) Jamie Y: its possable

(8:05:06 PM) Jenny: lol

(8:05:09 PM) Jenny: possible

(8:05:13 PM) Sian Jones: No, it's not.

(8:05:14 PM) Jamie Y: w/e

(8:05:28 PM) Jamie : shush

(8:05:34 PM) Sian Jones: Because God inspired the people who wrote the Bible, and
He never makes mistakes.

(8:05:44 PM) Jamie : why did the old testiment say gays shouldbe stoned to death??

(8:05:56 PM) Sian Jones: In answer to Jay - because it is against the way He
created people to be, and therefore it's an abomination in His eyes.

(8:06:13 PM) Holly Mae: baccccckkk

(8:06:16 PM) Jamie : then why did he make me like this? o.O

(8:06:36 PM) Sian Jones: He didn't.

(8:06:40 PM) Sian Jones: You chose to be that way.

(8:06:46 PM) Jamie : but he made everything, right?

(8:06:48 PM) Jenny: no he didn't

(8:06:54 PM) Sian Jones: Correct.

(8:06:59 PM) Jamie : sexuality's not an option =S

(8:07:03 PM) Sian Jones: He created everything in the beginning.

(8:07:26 PM) Sian Jones: People have leanings that way BECAUSE of sin - the choice
is yours whether you fight it or not.

(8:07:30 PM) Jenny: exactly- you can't help if you're straight or not

(8:08:29 PM) Jamie Y: sian just killed you off (not literaly)

(8:08:40 PM) Holly Mae: lol

(8:08:43 PM) Sian Jones: But you can choose whether to live the way you're meant
to live by the law of God - or not.

I must take my stand. You're still my friend, a great person and my grandson. :P Okay? :)

Outta 'Arm's Way

Image
It's painful. And it's sore. It's so sore I spend washtime dabbing water on portions of my skin because if I shower properly, I end up crying with pain. It's inherited genetically. I remember Daddy telling me his started when he was 19. It went all over his entire body - including his face. He had the wet kind - weeping, they call it - on his face. He had to go to work every day like that. And he said he felt disgusting, like a leper. Until he took aloe vera tablets, which reduced his eczema to some kind of controllable level. It started when I was a kid. Behind the backs of my knees and in the crooks of my arms. Then it faded until I only had it occasionally on the elbow of my right arm. Last year, it flared up again. REALLY bad. On my arms. Then I went to America. It was bad when I arrived. Came back a little in Oregon due to the dryness of the air. But otherwise, it was cleared. I forgot I had ever had eczema. Then I came home. And started work. ...

My Battle with Modesty

WARNING: I'm not sure about the appropriateness of this for guys...so if you think it's bad, stop reading. Okay? I read Jay Lauser’s excellent post on A New Kind of Modesty (which you really, really, really should read, though I won’t post it up seven times like my big sister C’rissie :P) yesterday, and thought I would like to blog my struggle and weakness in that area for...encouragement? General opinion? Not quite sure, although it certainly wasn’t out of self consideration. :P Then I read C’rissie’s post connected with Jay’s, A Rant on Modesty ;), which you can read here . And decided that I felt too embarrassed after reading that, because they were both so good and covered the ground enough, so I wouldn’t. Well, this morning, I changed my mind. (Although after rereading it again just, with all the comments, I feel quite small about posting this...*hits send before I rethink*) It’s not too often that I gain a victory over my worldliness to be happy in the clothes I’m weari...

Best Time of My Life ~ Now

You know those points in life where things just hit you? It came to me as I was washing up in the kitchen, snuggled in my fluffy grey dressing gown, the electric light off and the warm glow of the sunset fading in through the window, Michael Card's Celtic music playing in the background. I'm 21. And finally life seems to be coming, in a way. So many plans and hopes and dreams buzzing through my head, so much that is likely to and so easily can be smashed. "I'm fine on my own," I said aloud, laughed, looked up and sighed. These moments where I'm the only one in the house and can talk out loud on everything with God - cause He already knows it - and know the intimate closeness of Him in my spirit. "No, I'm not. But I'm okay with that. You're here, and You'll be with me until the time is right." Marriages are sprouting up all around me as my friends begin to pair off, and the middle-aged-21 crisis struck me. Not so much because...
