Change in Plans this Summer

Well I still have every intention of completing my personal project, which is to criticaly compare what I am convinced is the truth with others are convinced is true. At the very least I will still review Carl Sagans book “Demon Haunted World” when I have the opportunity out of faithfulness to a freind. However, my plans this summer have changed. I am something like a 7th year senior and decided to take the summer off and use my extra time for personal reflection and growth. Which was what I was doing until a month ago. Now I am leading a youth group and teaching regularly on top of getting more opportunities to fill pulpit in area churches. So the content of my studies has shifted. Since I really don’t want to abandon what I have started here I am just going to blog about my discoveries from my studies for my other commitments.

It is very amazing to see how God works. For the last few years all I wanted to do was have these kinds of ministry opportunities and none came. I finally came to terms that God had importent lessons for me to learn first so I decided to sit back this summer and free myself of the usual distractions to learn them and now before I had a chance to really do anything I have more opporunities then I could have ever dreamed of. What is amazing though is that it had nothing to do with me needing to learn anything special (I’m just as dumb as I always have been and will be) it needed to be Gods timing so it was obvious that He was the one doing the ministry and just was giving me grace by using me at the moment.

  1. Where have you been romans? Haven’t seen you around the AF. We miss ya. Also, about your comment: “(I’m just as dumb as I always have been and will be)” That’s sad to hear Romans. What a defeatist comment to make.

  2. Hi there Rasko. I think my latest blog kinda sums up where I have been, I have been a little overwhelmed lately. Don’t worry I don’t plan on stopping my participation on the AF. I even posted on the forums a couple days ago. As far as my comment don’t take that to mean I gave up on learning. It just means I will never learn all there is to be learned and depend on God rather then myself to be a minister of truth to others.
