QUESTION OF THE DAY: What do you pray about?

THANK YOU FOR THOSE WHo PRAY THAT I CAN HEAR FRoM SOMEONE FROM LOUISIANA!

Yesterday at work, I got a hold of Eric Guieffreda, who lives like twenty miles from New Orleans...

He drove to North Carolina for a non-weather related incident: To see his twin brother, Daniel (whom I'm really really close with) because he just returned from IRAQ today! 

Their whole family is well, but there's minor damages to his house...nothing to complain given those in New Orleans...

But there's two more guys I still can not get a hold of...


Spent most of the day researching and working on this veteran's organization thing...

For those of you more new to my xanga, several friends of mine have been interested in forming a new veteran's organization but its hard starting from scratch and the paperwork to be non-profit appears daunting...

I'm hoping this is a good thing, but I'm concern at how much the organization formation is depending on me and how I feel that some people's motive is more for selfish gain...

And I'm a bit concern that most of those involved are going to be shaky in their commitment and seek their own petty benefits that in the end it is not what I am bargining for...

But I won't bog u down with the details, sigh...

I hate politics...

Don't want to sin by talking too much...

SO I"m going to go to the Father and pray,

Dear Lord,

I thank you for the salvation you have given me, a salvation by grace alone which I would never ever deserve.

Father, I pray for those who are still suffering from Katrina, be with them all, give them your abundance of grace oh Lord.

Thank you for Daniel's safe passage back from Iraq and the rest of his family being okay.

I pray for this veteran's organization and the mean words that are involved in the process...Lord, I feel the burden is not fair and the attitude given is unjust.  Guide me, provide other's effort as well.

I pray for those who drop by this xanga,

Lord I know there are atheist, non-Christians and even Christians who have questioned the wisdom of the things I've said lately...

You oh Lord, are my God, and my witness; May they see you despite whatever wrong I might have incurred.

But my conscience remain true.

IN JESUS NAME I PRAY,

AMEN

Sounds like you need a lot of prayer Jimmy my boy.

Okay, try this when the rifle thing comes up: picture you're shooting somebody you really can't stand. Pretend it's a guy that's trying to hurt Nancy. Someone after one of your sisters. Get personal. I'll be praying for that specifically. And praise GOD you got in contact with your friend! That's miraculous and I am really happy for you. I guess that means no Xanga from you for four days huh?

Karsten just IM'd me out of the blue. He read my AOL profile and thought he would come antagonize me. Oy, I don't care for him at all. Pearls before swine, you know? There isn't any point.

Dancing is extremely important. You should learn how.

Updates: Citrus DOES have a Campus Crusade! And wouldn't you know they have their meetings the only two days and the exact hour that I am in my history class . . . life is cruel. Anyway today was their club week. it was so sad. Besides the club there were like ten people in the quad . . . pathetic . . .

I think I miss PCC a little. Is that lame?

God bless Jimmy. Keep your chin up. At least you and I see eye to eye on Katrina.

Hi Jim:

I signed your guest book and wanted to say thanks again for visiting.

You are wise to stop talking before you sin. That is a big temptation for me.

I also hate politics, but I am passionate about it at the same time. I cannot believe how many

sick, twisted people are out there. "The Kool-Aid" crowd is especially scary to me.

((( GRANDMA HUGS )))

Ummm... I'm not interested and never will be interested. I'm Atheist and always will be. Nothing can change my mind. And I wish I could believe what I believe without people like you sending me things like what you just sent me!!! I don't tell you to be a Atheist! SO don't tell me to be a Christian!

god doesnt have any control over my life right now....seing that im skeptical of him and am totally against predestination

This morning was another FCA and again ive got a problem with what the speaker said. He talked about being stuck in an airport and having to spend the night there and being on the plane the next morning and seeing this awesome sunrise over the clouds and that godf meant for him to see it like that and so on and so on

maybe it was because there was a logical series of events leading up to him missing his flight thus causing him to be on the next one. Events like weather delays and the security not letting him though. God controls security people now? Why could he not control the terrorists of 9/11?

HOW DARE YOU!! my friend just told me that you sent her a website about christians. My friend is allowed to believe in whatever she wants to believe in, because its a free country. I am a christian myself but what you've done just makes me sick. You're not being a very good christian by doing this. She knows what she believes in.....why don't you focus more on your relationship with God instead of trying to convert her. So just go watch the 700 club, dance because your man " Bush" won the election and LEAVE PEOPLE ALONE!!!!
