A little backstory to this clip before you watch it:
Will Smith’s father abandoned him and his mother when he was a child, and when Will was finally getting into show business and making a name for himself, he tried to sneak his way back into his life like nothing happened. Will co-wrote this episode, and James Avery (Uncle Phil) said “this scene was the hardest thing...

I am a man of God.
Not characterized by my own perfection and righteousness, but clothed by His redeeming love. I have a duty to keep up my image, not so I look good, but so the One who sent me is glorified. This, I will carry out gladly. I thank Him for giving me His perfection in all my imperfection; freedom through all my binding chains; beauty in all my unsightly sinfulness; purpose in all the chaos and...

Out for a breather.
When you’re angry or frustrated at someone, stay patient with them. If you can’t, then just take a step outside for a while until you calm down (as politely as you can.. don’t go stomping off, slamming doors, etc. etc.). A good thing to do in these situations is to isolate yourself in His creation; let it all soothe you. Currently, I am out for one of these “steps...

God exists.
People tell me all the time that it’s hard to believe in some mysterious “God”/creature/being/etc./etc. who supposedly rules over the universe when they can’t see/hear/smell/feel said deity. I am amazed by how well Satan has blocked their senses.
1) Seeing God: I see God everywhere. I look outside my window, and I see trees, birds, squirrels, the sky, the sun and moon; His...

Finding strength in God.
Sometimes, trying your best to “stay strong” isn’t good enough. Sometimes, you need to break down and come to God, humbled, and on your knees, confessing:
“I am vulnerable and weak; I have no power over these circumstances that cause me so much pain. You are able; You are strong; best of all, You are loving. I place my life in Your able hands. Let Your will, not mine, be...

God, I pray you'd bring Your peace to my family...
I really feel we need Your love and peace in our family; especially right now. I trust that you know what’s best for us, and that You’ll make it happen (‡Romans 8:28). Thanks in advance. Love, Josh.
‡ And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

I can't help but feel more than somewhat betrayed.
I suppose it’s my fault for letting up on the tension too soon, thinking things were going alright?

A friend of mine seems to be in a lot of suffering lately. Last night, I told her something that I think we Christians should all remember:
Through all the irresistible temptations and harsh trials we go through, we need to remember that we have a Dad who’s stronger than all of that. A Dad who loves us and will pull us through these times. Not to mention, even though God himself is much...

I thought that I'd be very... "ambivalent" about...
Haha like what I did there?
Anyhow, yeah, I thought I’d be ambivalent about this approach to this girl. Just being there for her as a friend. For some reason, it isn’t a decision that makes me uncomfortable at all, and it’s most definitely not something I’m regretting. ^^

Been a while since my last post.
Here’s a quick recap of what’s going on in my life:
1: Friend is back on his first leave from the Navy; hung out once, planning on hanging out at least one more time before he goes back.
2: Girl I like needs a solid friend much more than she needs a boyfriend at the moment; Gladly throwing out my feelings for her (or sweeping them under the rug anyhoo :PP)
3: As a youth group...

Steve Jobs resigns from Apple.
Steve Jobs has resigned from the company that he helped found. He’s been on leave since January for medical reasons, but was still technically the CEO. Tim Cook, who has been serving as the interim CEO, is now in charge.
Yeah. This just happened.

Random Thought #119.
fruitsalad:
You’re beautiful. It doesn’t matter what you, or anyone else thinks; you’re beautiful. Don’t let the world define beauty for you. Go by God’s standard. You’re beautiful, just as you are; inside and out. You don’t have to change for him or for her. You don’t have to put on that mask everyday before you go out to please others. God is pleased, just as you are.
You’re beautiful....

Lifestyle change.
Coming along quite nicely. Instead of doing nothing when I’m bored and wasting away my brilliance (<—Lol…), I’m working out/reading Bible :D. Hopefully, deactivating my facebook for the next few days with intent to hide my birthday will also have another positive side effect. Need to learn to be less and less dependent on technology while shifting the emphasis to God in...

Another night of going to bed confused.
Head and heart are both on the same page. What’s wrong? Emotions. Dislike. >______>
I deactivated my facebook.
It’s going to be down until Saturday around noon or so. I don’t want people wishing me a happy birthday because they see other people doing so publicly on Facebook. Through this year, I’ll know who knowns. Bahaha it’s going to be like 3 people besides family, probably.

And this year's birthday will be a lonely one once...
A little more than what I’m used to, at that. Got church the day of, so no family dinner. I know God’s knows and that’s all that really matters, but why can’t I shake this feeling of impending melancholy? God, please help :).

It's pathetic
asking for reblogs. But please reblog things that you like and think can be an encouragement to others :). I want to make a positive impact in as many people’s lives as I can. It’d really help me out guys :).

Random thought #20.
fruitsalad:
All of us are constantly struggling against temptation and sin. Sometimes we win, and other times we lose. We are all human. Our minds naturally follow sin, so it can’t be helped There are a couple of different explanations for this:
1. It’s definitely easier to just let go and live a life of sin,
2. It’s in our predefined nature, because of the Fall
… etc.
The causes just go on...

King Solomon.
Wealthiest man ever to have lived. Wisest man ever to have lived. He had everything he could ever want and more: fame, fortune, women, etc. But in Ecclesiastes, he writes that absolutely everything is meaningless if God isn’t involved in your life. Let the “Teacher” be speak through his experience, and save you the trouble of finding out the hard way that praising God is the only...

“Christian, seek God first. Put Him before your wants and even your needs. Nothing else matters. It’s a matter of change in mindset. As we continue to read and pray, our hearts slowly begin to resonate with Him more and more. Straying from the ways of the world, and finding joy in godly things becomes natural.” -ambivalenc.tumblr.com
I wonder
if God’s telling me I should go after her now? Weird coincidences. Very weird. Almost supernatural? Time to start praying about this again.

Late again.
Ahaha what’s wrong with me?! Anyhoo, beach today with ~150 kids + ~30 volunteers. Fun stuff. XD
LOL.
I woke up so late. I was supposed to have left home 10 minutes ago. Oh well. HAHAHA
It's gotta stop.
Horrible habit. One that will only get harder to break the longer I wait (that’s any habit though… xD). Anywayyy, it has to stop, so I am stopping. If you want to know what the habit is, feel free to use your imagination :).
