The One Year Chronological Bible
By Tyndale House
see related
"The Lord was going before them in a pillar of cloud by day to lead them on the way, and in a pillar of fire by night to give them light, that they might travel by day and by night."
-Exodus 13:21-22

I've been reading my One Year Bible and I really liked this passage. It is so crazy that the Israelites(or substitute my name) still doubted God & Moses and complained constantly even when God was right there with them in the forms of a pillar of cloud and fire. My pillar of cloud and fire IS the Bible, duh. I just need reminding sometimes I guess... This really convicted me, especially after what happened on Saturday night...

You may read this and say that I have lost it, but oh well. I am writing this not for amusement purposes, or to convert atheists into believers, but just to relay what Jocelyn and I witnessed as a physical sight of spiritual warfare. I had been a little frustrated with God recently. Why? Because I have never had any spiritual theophanies or visions/dreams as a result of my 'obedience' to Him for all these years(7) (like He owed it to me...STUPID).

On Saturday night Jocelyn and I were sitting in my car parked parallel to the street in front of her house. She got out to grab something out of her car. I went to change a cd, and when I looked up I saw this shadow of a kid standing next to Jocelyn's car on the sidewalk. I felt very uneasy, so I looked over at Jocelyn to make sure she was OK. She was standing there, frozen, staring at the kid too, so I turned my lights on the kid... A little African American kid no older than 12-13 yrs old, stood there with a dillon's sack in his hands. He looked up from the ground at me and all I saw was grey around where his eyes should be. The white of his eyes, which were rolled back to the back of his head, reflected the light of my headlights with an eerie glow. My heart stopped, and a chill ran down my spine. I knew instantly that this was something evil. The kid proceeded to talk to himself as he stumbled around. Finally he started running, and as he ran past my car he looked at me and started laughing.
I was shell-shocked. That was the first time I had ever seen anything like that. It looked like some of those scenes you see in the movies, but real and a billion times more frightening. We prayed right afterwards for that child, and for God's protection. Also another wierd thing that night was that right before the incident we were at the gas station, which was literally one house down from Jocelyn's house, where there was an accident involving an unhitched trailer running into a bus stop bench. The gas station clerk said that the dude had come in to ask when the bus was coming, and as he was in the gas station a trailer got unhitched and ran up the sidewalk and smashed the bus stop bench where the dude was sitting just 2 seconds ago!
And in an attempt to lighten this load God had put on me I blurted out the whole story to Steve's friends at his birthday party...AWKWARD! They asked me how I was, and I said, "oh I'm OK considering I just saw a demon tonite" WHAT!!! Sometimes I don't even believe the words that come out of my flipping mouth...sorry Steve and friends!!!

I pray that this does not happen to you. I do not wish this on anybody. I do pray that somehow this has helped you spiritually...and for those who do not believe in God or evil(Satan), they are very real. The important thing to remember is that God is in control, and the Trinity is much much more powerful than Satan could ever be. I love all of you. God Bless.

Never Felt This Way Before
By The Billions
see related
Dan and I were surfing the net in search of treasure...but found this instead. It's one of the best reviews I've seen so far..

THE BILLIONS
NEVER FELT THIS WAY BEFORE
NORTHERN RECORDS
The Billions are four men who live in a farmhouse together and make terrible music. Just so you have an understanding of how awful the band is, know that Kerry Livgren (from the band Kansas) recorded their first two albums. This is the music that the operator plays when you're on hold for half an hour after you call 911 to report your gerbil just committed suicide. This is the type of music they play through the PA at the nursing home when you visit your grandmother. This is the music your parents want you to listen to!

Teenager of the Year
By Frank Black

School sux.

show went ok



dan's b-day party was a blast. we took shots of holiday Jones soda...which consisted of the following flavors: broccoli casserole, salmon patte, turkey and gravy, and pecan pie. it was gag-alicious. The faces that Schramm made were PRICELESS!!! I wish I had some pics..oh well. The turkey smelled like dirty diapers to me, and tasted even worse! If you ever get together with some friends and want to do a little fearfactor/jackass experiment, then you should get your hands on these.

we watched a scary movie on the projector(for those of you who haven't tried this yet: any scary movie is 10 times scarier in a haunted farmhouse at night). but before that started, bates transformed himself into the "lotch ness" monster. he stripped down to nothing in the dark, turned on our fog machine and strobe light and started shaking his head and moving like a zombie. it was pretty freaking scary... I don't know if we have any pics but it's an image that will not go away anytime soon. it was the most fun i've had in a while.



first pre-marital counseling session went ok too.

played Scrabble with Jocelyn for the first time tonite. it's harder than i thought it would be, but still really fun. I learned that io is a word for idiotic operator? I won, duh.

Lucky Day
By Shaggy
It wasn't me.

 O.K. so the whole "FARTFACE" incident has unravelled itself. The mystery 'FARTFACE' is none other than me. It was me (Just like the Shaggy song!!!). I did it and I enjoyed every second of it. I was really bored one morning when I had a 2 hour break in between classes, so I decided to post on all my "friendz" sitez. I started the first couple with FARTFACE and saw that it was GOOD so I kept going. It took up about 1 hour of my time. I was laughing to myself in the KU computer lab and a couple heads turned and rolled their eyes at me. I then posted a blog fabricating a "culprit". Thanks everybody for playing along. And congrats to the man who figured it out:  brotherjebediah > you are a natural born Mrs. Fletcher ("Murder She Wrote").
