New Beginnings

Okay, for all zero of you who read this blog, you know it has been an age and a day since I last posted anything. Why? Because I'm a lazy, lazy man who has had his butt kicked by his intended major and I honestly was waning a lot. That's behind me.

I know at least every blogger has to face the decision on if he or she will stop writing the blog or begin again, and I have decided to begin again. This is will require a lot of changes, but I think it will be good. Good how? Who knows? I don't, but I am committed to trying if you are willing to commit to, um, existing? Seriously, does any one but bots read this? That's okay, I've decided to start name dropping other blogs and websites like it's going out of style! Why? Well, I could get hits that way maybe? Maybe not.

Wait a minute, you might be saying to yourself (that is if you're not yet another ad bot posting a link in another language on my site, dispite my measures against that), this is a blog about Christian views based on the Bible, and I don't remember Jesus ever dropping down a command about writing in a blog or Paul calling himself the "cheifest of sinners and the hippist of bloggers." You're right, this post has no Biblical tie in, so... Remember the bit about me being lazy? Part of that is that I felt drained. Dead really. I was slowly not trusting in the Lord for whatever reason. But my faith has been restored and I am coming back.

The prophet Isaiah said (40:30-31), "Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they will wait and not faint." That means, even those who are full of life and energy will grown weak and weary, but those who put their faith in God will not grow weak, but instead be full of life because God is the giver of life. I felt weak and drained because somewhere along the line I stopped waiting on the Lord and grew weary. Ironically, Isaiah 40:30-31 is my favorite passage in scripture and I blew it. Oh well, the best part of the relationship with my Savior is that "he is faithful and just to forgive" (1 John 1:9). Not to mention the all around awesomeness that is God.
