Awakening

Ouch...Soccer can be dangerous

Face the Fears

What hold has come against me
That this war begins inside of me
All my fears soak into the courage I thought I had
And I am defeated before the fight
Wrecked and kicked to nothin
Faced by weakness and erased by doubts
Yet the harm that haunts
is only by me
And I have lived to see greater days
Flee! Flee, you sinful side!
Depart from me, and take your strength,
which is I in my weakness
with you, and be no more
Fly, temptation, Fly! Return thy forked tongue
to serpents mouth, and be shut
Darts that fly will be shielded by faith
and armor that is of God's smithery
I in him shall not be felled, or felled once more
Him in I is strength to conquer
Yet i in I is weak to fall
You, O Lord, are strength and shield
Preserve my love and my life
Cover me in salt
And sing over me with joy
For I long to see your work done
Not mine
Fill me with fight for fight's sake
And do not let me
Let you down

The "Outstanding" Atheist - Mr. Richard Dawkins

I discovered this interview with Richard Dawkins on YouTube. I am currently reading Mr. Dawkins book, "the God Delusion". I must say, it is an interesting read. So far Mr. Dawkins has only caused me to be encouraged more in my faith, rather than discourage it. So needless to say, he's a bit mixed up (a bit?). However, I find this interview quite intriguing.

If you want to check this out for yourself, watch it here.

Here's another interview that is quite interesting featuring Mr. Dawkins in debate with a "Theist" philosopher.

Easter quamblings...

Easter is upon us. What a great time of the year. Not only a time of reflection and celebration, but also of newness. We celebrate the Messiah's death and resurrection, as well as prepare for warmer weather coming our way.
I also have found it is a time that really unifies the world, quite interestingly. This is the time when those who usually never darken the doorway of a church are present in the pews. It is also the time when churches (well, around here anyways) get together for a Good Friday service or Easter Sunday Service. It seems that even though many can't explain it, families and communities come together for this important weekend.

...and I don't think that it's because of the Easter Bunny.

What a weird thing, once you think about it. I wonder why rabbits are so associated with easter? And why do they hand out eggs? RABBITS DON'T LAY EGGS!!!!

Well, I'm looking forward to Easter. It will be busy for me, being a pastor and all, but I'm looking forward to it. My in-laws are coming over for a meal, and it's also the first time I won't be in Swift Current for the weekend (4 years running). Oh well...Regina sounds good to me.

Oh, I just thought you should know... I like game show bloopers. They are so funny!!! I found a pretty good one from Family Feud the other day. Check it out here. September....so funny.

Oh, here's another good one. Those Japanese sure know how to prank people.

Anyways, this blog has been pretty random. I hope you all have a great easter. Enjoy the videos.
