so what is it about good preaching, thoughts, and a prayer virgil that sparks thoughts in your head. maybe its the fact that you decide to pray for an hour, at 3 oclock in the morning.
I mean think about it, i will be praying and possibly sternly talking to God when some people will be getting up to start the day. Does that make any sense?
let me say this
for some reason even though i will be up late, i believe that there are some times in your life, that you need to be up late and talk to God.
tonight i herd a sermon, and the topic was how we need to be honest with God, and stop beating around the bush with him. I guess for some, it could seem like a pretty easy and straight forward topic. but for some reason it seemed to hit a nerve. not only does it seem like a lot of people i meet are not honest with God, it seems like they almost want to hide from what they are really thinking. why would people even want to do that because, lets just be honest, if God is who God really is, then doesn't he already know what you are thinking?
i guess i needed to hear that with what i have been thinking about
i have a lot on my mind right now:
internship
marriage
school
soccer
work
time
friends
bad moments
i just have so much on my mind and for some reason i need to just be honest with God
he knows what im thinking, but i need to be a man and go to him with honesty and humbleness and ask him what the heck is the deal right now?
so tonight when some of you are waking to start the day or those of you who may start the day after i go to sleep
pray for me
pray for yourself
pray for your friends, collegues, family
pray that they will all have honesty, and will have the courage and the guts to go to God and be honest, knowing that he is waiting for you to go and talk to him in an honest fashion, like a son to a father.
he is waiting
go be Honest with him

what is the purpose of blogging?
is there a strict purpose for blogging?
i guess i may not understand the idea of blogging
when i look at other person's blogs, people leave comments, they have a certain point of attack in their writing
but what is the point of a blog?
to just get there message out there?
to talk to other people?
i guess i just dont know
maybe someone can let me know so that i can start writing a more effective blog in a way
that people will read it more, or will talk back to me
let me know
peace out

?'s
here are some questions that i have been thinking about since i got back to school:
how do you know where God is calling you?
what is your earliest memory of God?
How is you spiritual life?
what is hardest for you to have a continual relationship with God?
what does it mean to be a real men of God?
those are some, some of them have come from one of my classes, but they have got me thinking
what are your answers?

kajmir and cigars
so its funny thinking about how long it has been since i have done this
but im gunna give it a try
again.....
a couple of weeks ago i was at a wedding of a very good friend of mine and we had his bachellor party at this ridiculous mansion that was in his hometown and let me tell you something that night was amazing
we had a lot of laughs, we had a cigar, we had something to drink, and well we had great conversation
some of the funnest conversation i have had in a while, it wasnt who i was with, or where we were, but it was the topic of discussion:
name an actor, and then think of his best and worst movies
that was it simple, easy
let me tell you though i didnt think that it would last untill 2 oclock in the morning we literally talked about actors and movies for like 3 hours
it was rediculous
but there is something to me about having those conversations because it makes me think about the fellowship that we had that night, it may not have been spiritual talk, or a bible study, or someone convicting someone else, it was a nice easy conversation that really brought us together as friends.
i think in some ways that is almost just as important sometimes than just talking spiritual all the time. not too say that i do not want to do those things because i do, but sometimes it is nice to just sit around a mansion and talk about movies( you dont really need the mansion though)
so i ask you this question
name one actor and tell me the best movie and the worst movie they have ever done.
peace out
but im gunna give it a try
again.....

travel=strange thoughts
so i finished my internship
it was amazing!
i dont think that i could ask for a better summer
but there is a weird thing that i had to go through again....
for some reason you hear people talk about how much you learn in college, and all the information you will need will come much when you are in college.
well let me tell you something, for some reason, i almost disagree
i think that you learn a lot, very much while you are in school
real ministry, is completely different than what you will learn in school. real ministry can only be learned when you are doing real ministry. its weird to think that how much knowledge that is being punched into our heads but it seems like i have learned this summer and last summer from doing ministry.
i have learned how to deal with situations that i dont want to be in, i have learned how much i love to preach, i have learned to connect with students that i could never think about connecting with, i have learned how to plan a huge outreach event, i was put in charge of a high school trip that i was not planned on being charge of, i had to comfort people for some interesting things, i have held more high schoolers why they cry for odd reasons,
it was an amazing summer of learning and of fun and crying
ill admit i cried like a little baby the night before i left
but there is some other interesting feelings, i have had them before but it is just different this time
for all that i want to be back at school, and how much i love being with my friends, and being back in the midwest to learn more
but for some reason the only thing that i can really think about, other than being sore out of my mind and my feat feeling like they want to explode, is going back to royersford PA, and be with that group of students thati fell in love with all over again this summer,
all i can think about is evan getting ready to make a decision to go to college,
i think about the girls and playing their sports and rocking it out at soccer
i think about little lauren going to florida sometime
i think about the rizzutos and how that big fat one made me actually cry and i love him very much for it
i think about darin and how much i miss him and how much i love him, i love you bro
everything in me is wanting to go back and see and be with everyone
but i know that God has brought me back here for a reason and i think it is to learn, and to gain as much knowledge as i can to go back to somewhere and bring the knowledge i learn to the students wherever i go.
i love everyone at CCV and i cant wait to hopefully return to royersford soon and for a long time
peace out

you just got punked!
so saturday night a friend and i decided to be mischievous.
we went into unwatered territory and went after someone who is so protective of his car, he probably doesn't like to get it wet for any reason.
we went after our friends silver honda civic, maybe its gray, i dont know but we went after it
we had 6 rolls of 200square feet of shrink wrap, so we debated for a little while at how much to use, we brought out half of the sticky wrap
we went to town we both took a full roll and started to run around the car covering the doors, the side mirrors, the windshield and the back window.
we covered the sucker, it was awesome
now we were about to get another roll, when we saw the door start to open, and little did we know, there were a couple of students that we both knew in the house along with the owner of the car. so we bolted out of there, and drove back to the hideout.
well at the hideout, i decided to hang out with my beautiful girlfriend for a little while, and in no less than 45 minutes, my partner comes and tells me " they got your car"
i was kind of perplexed and said "what do you mean they got my car"
"just come down and look at your car with me"
so i got up and my girlfriend and i followed my partner down to my car
and when i got outside i did not expect to see what i saw
MY CAR GOT POST IT NOTED!!
thousands, of post it notes, all over my car everywhere even my license plate got postit noted.
i was absolutely amazed when i first saw the car and job that was done i was incredibly................. taken back by how someone put that many post it notes on my car
after taking the post it notes off, not only did i start to think of who did, but i really wanted to congratulate the people who did it, as well as started to think of ideas that we can do to get them back.
i got punked!
