Welcome to my corner of the internet. Thoughts, journals, and whatever else comes to mind.

Post Tryptophan Thankfulness

So this past weekend we made a quick 4 day trip up to Northwest Pennsylvania to spend some time with the in-laws. It was a good trip, full of plenty of time to relax, unwind, and give thanks. It wasn't until I got home, though, that the depth of all I have to be...

Vision – Glimpses of the path

Back in college at Cedarville University I had this vision of my life taking the Bible to places it's never been in ways it's never gone before. In that glimpse, I figured it would be with a group like Wycliffe Bible Translators USA or JAARS or something like that....

Today – November 16, 2012

Went for another walk in the dark tonight. These are such good times. So much of life is non-stop. It has been good to start getting out in the dark, quiet, cold air. Spent the whole day doing on-site service for a long term client; didn't quite get everything done,...

Today – November 15, 2012

Interesting day. Lots of sub-stories these bullet points will trigger as I look back on today. Can you find the one thing I didn't really do? Stuffed my phone under the pillow so I wouldn't be able to hear the alarm go off. Overslept by an hour. "No, I'm not tired,...

Today – November 14, 2012

Another day gone by. Got a lot done today, it feels like. The day wasn't rushed, but it also was full. I didn't make a couple appointments I would have liked to have made, but every day has its decisions that must be made. Brian talked a bit about discipline on the...

Today – November 13, 2012

A bullet point of a day. Not bad, just out of time to put complete thoughts together. Worked through last month's financials for C2IT. We started really measuring some things about 3 months ago and it's helped set goals and know what is and isn't working to achieve...

Today – November 12, 2012

My list of dreams of my life includes daily journalling about my life, whether it's big things or small things, exciting days or boring days. I still think that'd be a great way of life, but it may not happen anytime soon, but then again, it all starts with today,...

A Prayer about Pain

This prayer comes from a book I'm reading right now - . This is the prayer following a chapter about dealing with those painful emotions - grief, anger, loss, and pain. It's been quite timely for me. I have work to do in these areas. Lord Jesus, when I think about my...

ME2U on Fox 59

ME2U was featured as the top story on a local news channel on October 19. It was a great chance to share a bit of our vision and message with the local community. The story's text is below, along with a link to the video. New website aims to reduce inappropriate...

Go This Way

In my Bible reading today, the people asked the prophet to "ask the Lord to tell us where he wants us to go and what he wants us to do" and then said that "we promise to do whatever he says, even if it isn't what we want to do." Subsequently, the response they got...

Purpose in the Pain

Today in my Bible reading time I ran once again across Jeremiah 29. There's a verse in this chapter that is quoted time and time again as a promise to those in pain: "For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the Lord. Plans for welfare and not for calamity...
