I just watched “hoody” tonight. That is “Hoosiers” and “Rudy”, probably two of my favorite sports movies. I was watching Hoosiers on regular TV and I am now watching Rudy on a DVD. As I was watching these two fine shows I was thinking to myself, why do we like movies like that? I came to the conclusion that we like to watch those kinds of movies because they make us feel good and let us see underdogs fight hard and win in the end. Then I thought about my walk with God and what Jesus has done for me; he makes me feel good when Im down (like hoosiers), he tells me that if I work hard and seek after him i will find him (like rudy making the team) and there are always going to be people in our lives that tell us we cant do it (like all the people who told Rudy that he couldn’t make the team). So, I realized that I love Jesus more than those two movies but they sure are good examples of why I love him so much. Don’t get caught “worshipping” things that are only make believe.

I do want my life to matter to others, but I dont want it to always be about my eye problems that I have gone through the past four and a half years.  Although this has a been a life-defining event to me, if I am not finding a fresh relationship with Jesus (notice I didnt say God?  There are lots of Gods but only one Jesus) then I dont have anything to offer people around me.  I downloaded the newest picture from the last mars explorer and put it on my desktop to remind me to seek new frontiers with Jesus and not get content to stay in “my world”.

Hello all,

I have switched around so many times now on the internet that I am beginning to feel like I have multiple personalities and that I have cyber-commitment issues. 🙂  Anyway, I am now here and excited to share my deepest darkest feelings with you all in cyberland that everyone and their dog can see. JK  I will be posting some of my artwork that I have created via Mr. Macbook Pro (said and typed with ultra reverence) and be adding thoughts and things that I think can really help you in your walk with God or encourage you to get a personal relationship with Jesus.  Either way, I always want my life to matter to someone else and not just to myself.  (I have my wife for that).  I will be building out my blogsite as the days go by and encourage you to subscribe to it because it will be, as I would say, pimpolicious!!
