yes I would love to sit down and talk with you one day about all that happened with you knee.

Lana I personally can relate in so way to your situation when you knee got injured and that put a hamper on what you loved to do ,but i can totally relate on this on to a T being embarrassed for the way a part of your body looks . my back if you have ever seen it has a scar that looks like a train track down it my back sticks out from when my bone were brittle and I had 9 crushed vertebra ,I did not like taking my shirt off i mean boys don’t normally get that way about a shirt because I was scared of what others would think.One day while out side cutting the grass and burning up I said i don’t care what others think and i took my shirt off because I knew even as a kid God made me ,and he was not embarrassed.But,what i also wanna share is at a young age of 5 I loved to workout lift weights,I had hopes and dreams of being a body builder and i still wanna walk up one day on a stage at a muscle and fitness competition and flex because I am about to workout still,but imagine being told you wont be able to workout,and imagine even before and after surgery the treat of being paralyzed is still great

God box sermon

God Box Sermon by Josh Causey

We are hidden Christ and the sin is remove because of what Christ did on the Cross.

this is for Angel,Jess and Matt

I just wanted to post a cute picture,of my family,they are blood relatives because
each and everyone of us is related in blood because of Jesus Christ!

polluted water

Just as water that has been mixed with dirt,or has had some type of waste dumped in it becomes unclean,so is the heart and mind of man because of sin,but were were born into sin,water did not start out unclean.Even after we except Christ into our live and he washes us clean it is a battle ever single day to keep out heart and mind focused on him,David a man after God's own heart struggled.We all struggle and fall short day after day,Remember in Genesis 3 Adam and Eve in the Garden ,Eve was tricked by the serpent The Devil in to eating the fruit ,and gave some to Adam and he ate so of the fruit from the Tree in the middle of the garden,that God had told them they could not eat from,and after they had eaten the fruit they saw they were Naked ,their eyes we open the bible says,and even after all of this in 1 John 3:16 ,if we except Jesus Christ we receive the give of Salvation.But,the everyday struggle is after we except Christ is to reflect him daily,I was reading a comment on Robert Terrell's flickr site on and old picture he had taken of me and some other kid and we had written I belong to Jesus and person that commented said I though they would know we are Christians by our love,this evening I got to recalling that comment that I had read,and I don't wanna one of those that walks around with the nice Christian T Shirt and I don't want the bumper sticker with the fish that says Jesus loves you ,because actions and how we tree one another speaks louder than a bunch of words,is it easy no ,its not. So, just know all who read this your not struggling alone in life and trying to daily represent Christ.

Rooted in Christ

GOD Box sermon

Josh to me gets better and better on that sermon each time he preaches it.


the sermons comes from Colossians 1:13-14 and Colossians 1:24-29

Who i am-Reposted

he title of this post is Who am I ? Well I am a missionary , now I don't always act Christ like I fall short just every single person on earth,but like ever person that comes to know or already know Jesus as there Lord and savior you are from then on a missionary ,that does not mean you have to go over seas and live in jungle of Africa and preach the Gospel,that is unless God calls you to do that.But no weather you are young kid in k-12,college, single mother,or father working 2 jobs to support your family,or old or retired ,when you come to know Christ you are to go an make disciples of men and bring others to know Christ and share Christ with other and advance the Kingdom!I love The Ring Community church,I started to say my church,but it God's church!!!But,I love how they have community groups ,because its set up for your to grow with one another in Christ and have biblical discussions , and dive in to the word together.my Job is I am a missionary,and my mission field God has planted me on is everywhere I go,because if I limit it to Baton rouge,and Lama Drid ,Mexico , I am isolating Christ to Just those two areas,but I will tell you there are Three major key places God has placed me on The Ring Community church ,being in involved in community groups ,and help and growing with my fellow community group members,Parkview Youth Ministries,God placed me there not just to watch him regrow the church and the Youth ministry, but to help and grow with them,and God has place me going with the Ring Community church going to Mexico,and helping the Church in Lama Drid grow and reach that city for Christ!!So my question to you is where has God place you share your story.....

The title of this post is Who am I ? Well I am a missionary , now I don't always act Christ like I fall short just every single person on earth,but like ever person that comes to know or already know Jesus as there Lord and savior you are from then on a missionary ,that does not mean you have to go over seas and live in jungle of Africa and preach the Gospel,that is unless God calls you to do that.But no weather you are young kid in k-12,college, single mother,or father working 2 jobs to support your family,or old or retired ,when you come to know Christ you are to go an make disciples of men and bring others to know Christ and share Christ with other and advance the Kingdom!I love The Ring Community church,I started to say my church,but it God's church!!!But,I love how they have community groups ,because its set up for your to grow with one another in Christ and have biblical discussions , and dive in to the word together.my Job is I am a missionary,and my mission field God has planted me on is everywhere I go,because if I limit it to Baton rouge,and Lama Drid ,Mexico , I am isolating Christ to Just those two areas,but I will tell you there are Three major key places God has placed me on The Ring Community church ,being in involved in community groups ,and help and growing with my fellow community group members,Parkview Youth Ministries,God placed me there not just to watch him regrow the church and the Youth ministry, but to help and grow with them,and God has place me going with the Ring Community church going to Mexico,and helping the Church in Lama Drid grow and reach that city for Christ!!So my question to you is where has God place you share your story.....

2008 has only short while left

A few months or so left of 2008,like 3 or so months and my how I wish this year would hurry up and leave.This year has not all been bad ,it had its good points.



good stuff of 2008

1.The Ring moving to the BCM,which
opens up more out reach and other opportunities

2. me being in Ashley And Kyle's wedding

3. I work with and for a two wonderful people Douge Moore and Jessica Lawrence

place I miss

The Children’s Inn at the National Institutes of Health is a residential "place like home" for sick children and their families. Children come from across the country and around the world to stay together with their families in The Inn’s healing environment while receiving groundbreaking medical treatments at the NIH, the world’s leading biomedical research center. While the NIH takes care of the child’s medical needs, The Inn tends to the child’s heart, soul and spirit.I miss the kids and the staff of volunteers ,and I miss getting to visit and helping as a Volunteer when I could even though I was a patient @ the NIH ,I loved being who I am a Minister of Belonging. The kids at the Children's Inn a lot of them are battling are fighting terminal Cancer,Aid and other Disease and Disorders,and those kids and their family's come from all over the world. There is a way you can help and child and there family (http://www.childrensinn.org)

theres no umbrella

A book I am gonna get back in to reading soon is the book they like Jesus But not the Church.Please allow me to share so thoughts and views on this subject,As Christians many of us after receiving Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior think that we fall under this umbrella to cast judgment.When we excepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior,Jesus did not put this umbrella over our heads saying go forth and judge the world, no as Christians we are called to be a light to the world and not copy the worlds ways.Psalm 9:8 He will judge the world in righteousness.# Isaiah 2:4
He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.The Lord is our judge,we are call to be ambassadors of Christ,we all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.Ephesians 2 Paul talks about we were once dead in our transgressions,we were once dead to sin,we had another master the serpent aka Satan , But God bought us with with a price,by coming to earth and being human and dieing on a cross ,so we are to share that good news and help open peoples eyes to see Christ and except him as their Lord and savior.

this is a place for updates

Jesus Christ has the power to...

so I have listed examples of some things Christ has done in my life, what has Christ done in yours,please share what he has done in your life.

Anger

This weekend has been super ruff on me,it started Thursday after infusion I had not eaten that day and I was just completely warn out for some reason.I slept the entire time of my infusion ,so that was one reason I didn't eat and right as we go home and pull up in the drive way we get a call Linda has a panic attack ,I love MS Linda a whole lot it did not bother me rushing out to help ,I would help anyone at the drop of a dime,but she was in a cranky mood ,and I am already tired for some reason and hungry,so I am really not in the mood to whining ,loud talking ,or just being moody in general,but this whole week she has been moody and I have just been sick of hearing the her complain and so has my mom.Today I take a nap which I need and woke up about 5:30, and some one down the street is playing their boom speakers so loud I heard the music clear as day without hearing aids and the walls in the house were vibrating ,I normally don't care about the loud music ,but it woke me up and its 9:45 and the music music is still going one,so I called the police ,because I the music was just killing my ears,my mom and I left and went to CC's to get out the house ad I was hoping by the time I got back the music would have stopped ,it didn't ,so I sm sitting here and the music is still going on and I just wanna scream or go and break their speakers which I might would do if I had a car.

upgrades are nice

Yesterday a team of us rearranged the Youth office @ parkview ,I got a new desk and new chair , and our couch got so throw pillows yippie. But, the sad part is Josh nor Meg work in the office with us ,so while the upgrade and changes are wonderful,there is some sadness under neither ,but on the other positive note Jess and I will still be eating lunch with them every week. I hope you guys will enjoy the video that is apart of this post this is a song I love ,so enjoy !!!

iphone xp

ok, I was having a little fun on the computer editing images ,and this is what I created!!!

relaxing

Well now that my mom and I's close friend Ms Linda is doing so much better I can relax now and breathe easier ,for the past 2 weeks my mom and I have been sort of like baby sitting ,but we have not been keeping a baby we have been helping a friend of ours who has been in some heavy heavy stress, which mess with her fiscal and mental health.Ms Linda is Bi polar and when she gets under heavy stress like she was its hard for her to think rational ,so my mom and I have been taking care of her, and now that she is doing so much better I can rest and relax and have time sit back and sit at the coffee shop.

takeing time to update

I am happy yet kinda bumded , the reason i am happy well i got to hang out with people i am good friend with ,earlier today i got to eat lunch with my good friend MR joe from computer school, that was a nice hang out lunch. Tonight i got to see so friend that i have not seen in a couple of years ,i went and ate dinner with them at On The Boarder over by barns &noble .But, here is whats going on to get me kinda in a funk ,is Anna my ex Girl friend which kinda had a bit of issues with a Longdistance relationship,and here is why this making me laugh under neither ,she has issues with longdistance relationships ok then she turns around talking to someone that is 5 or 6 hours away,when i am 8 hours away and now she is engaged,so she asked me the other day did I want her to send a wedding invatation to me I said ok send one, but here is where it bumms me out is ,i cared for Anna and she did the same exact thing Marrie kemp that i dated for 5 years lived two doors down from, and when I moved to baker,she is like i have a problem with a long sistance relationship then she ends up dating a guy that live in my same neighbor hood in baker which was a total looser he got suspended for fight at school ,he beat a kid at school for no reason ,so ok why is this bothering me now it just that wedding invite to me its like a little slap in the face to me.have no fear johny.B is not beat down and sad , i am just kind a little hurt , have no fear this old dog has been throught a million times worse and i'm still standing I just wanted to get this off my chest and let everyone else know,so to my friends @ church I'm ok i no sad depressed,i have just had my heart just spit on by a lot of different people in my life and i get my hear spit on some more in my life time,this just makes me stronger.

Africe

this is what the necklaces my friends made for me looks like !

This week I was asked the question by mom and Ms Linda why do people do things to hurt one another,and why do people do evil,there is a short answer t answer is because of the fall,because ever since the fall of Adam and Eve there has been sin that is the reason.Now that we are born again in Christ, we have been washed clean.The Answer is Because of the fall of Adam and Eve in the Garden,and since we are born again we shouldn't try to understand evil,because if you try to understand evil,you have the capability to still do evil,try to understand evil only brings sin back in the picture,and since we have been washed clean by the blood of Christ we should not want sin to back in the picture. This post is not saying that oh your gonna be perfect after you except Christ ,we are all gonna mess up, but trying to understand why other do the evil in the world is npt for us to understand ,we should be the light of Chris to them and show Christ,and let God be God and let him deal with there hearts.We think if I could understand others, we can fix the situation,and fix the person,we can be the Prozac and be the fixer,when we need to be concerned with our selves and out relationship with Christ ,and showing Christ to the world,and doing as Christ Commanded,to feed the hungry,visit the sick and the prisoner,and give shelter to the poor,and that my friend will heal the world when we reflect Christ to the world to see.

La Pewwww!!!

for Today

Psalm 18:27-30 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)

27 You save the humble
but bring low those whose eyes are haughty.

28 You, O LORD, keep my lamp burning;
my God turns my darkness into light.

29 With your help I can advance against a troop [a] ;
with my God I can scale a wall.

30 As for God, his way is perfect;
the word of the LORD is flawless.
He is a shield
for all who take refuge in him.

crazyness

This week my mom and I are staying with a really good friend of ours that I have known since I was a toddler who is just going through a ruff time, but this week has its up and down .On the side, helping out with yard work which is difficult for A friend of Ours' Ms Linda get yard work done because she got a heat stroke years ago was fun and it was also very good for me because I have not gotten out to do yard work in a long time and I missed that kinda stuff.But this week has not all been in my hands because yes this week has thrown some what of my schedule off, but I God is showing me that one that I need to brought out of my comfort zone, which is my schedule and this week also has been a week that was has also had a scary begging .

today

Zechariah 14:8-9 (Contemporary English Version)
8In both summer and winter, life-giving streams will flow from Jerusalem, half of them to the Dead Sea in the east and half to the Mediterranean Sea in the west
9Then there will be only one LORD who rules as King and whose name is worshiped everywhere on earth.

LOST AND FOUND

I go to check my my email and in my box of new emails ,I open up the daily devotion email from upper room, and the verse for today is out of Matthew 5:21-24 and Ephesians 4:32.I go a read the devotion and out of those verse its talking about reconciling ,forgiving,settling conflicts,and being quick to forgive others as Christ has forgiven us.so,I'm reading theses verses and I am reminded of a conflict earlier today I had with a friend and just how hurt I was of the words used to hurt me and how I was treated, but you know in that situation, I let it affect me and I let my hurt control me and affect how I treated and talked to another friend,so the lesson here is don't let other attitudes and conflicts with you affect how you treat others,if you let it control you your hurting your self double and hurting someone innocent.So be quick to forgive and don't say oh I forgive you and walk a way with your feeling still being hurt like a splinter in your hand ,forgiving and letting go is not easy ,but if you ask God for his strength to guide and help mend the situation and heal hurts on both sides.



LOST AND FOUND
_________________________

Matthew 5:21-24 (NRSV)

"You have heard that it was said to those of ancient times, 'You shall not murder'; and 'whoever murders shall be liable to judgment.' But I say to you that if you are angry with a brother or sister, you will be liable to judgment; and if you insult a brother or sister, you will be liable to the council; and if you say, 'You fool,' you will be liable to the hell of fire. So when you are offering your gift at the altar, if you remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar and go; first be reconciled to your brother or sister, and then come and offer your gift.

Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ has forgiven you.

Leaning on the Lord

for the past couple of months,I have been dealing with Dizzy spells ,also know as Vertigo.My first experience with vertigo ,I went to the emergency room,because my mom and i had no clue as to what was going on.But, in dealing with the affects of Vertigo ,with being dizzy ,and the feel of not being in control, I have been praying and leaning on the Lord more for his help.I ask that you would please keep me in your prayers.

Fears

Last night in community group,it was guys night and we talked about fears,and that is something for me and I know a lot of others guys struggle with.Sometimes fear can motivate you and some fears can stop you in your tracks,I mean some of us have some just silly fears, such as being scared of wasp,spiders,and raccoons.But, even though we are a little shy and not wanting to admit things that frighten them and in situations like last night we all laugh and say I'm a shamed to admit i am scare of this,or I am scared of that,and then when it comes to down right even big things like admitting I am down right scared ,of things such as family issues and I need the Lords strength to g et me through .

things I try to do daily,but am not quite perfect at

I try to read the upper room devotional emails every day thats not always done daily,but here is todays verse.

1 Corinthians 12:12-27 (CEV)
One Body with Many Parts
12The body of Christ has many different parts, just as any other body does. 13Some of us are Jews, and others are Gentiles. Some of us are slaves, and others are free. But God's Spirit baptized each of us and made us part of the body of Christ. Now we each drink from that same Spirit. [a] 14Our bodies don't have just one part. They have many parts. 15Suppose a foot says, "I'm not a hand, and so I'm not part of the body." Wouldn't the foot still belong to the body? 16Or suppose an ear says, "I'm not an eye, and so I'm not part of the body." Wouldn't the ear still belong to the body? 17If our bodies were only an eye, we couldn't hear a thing. And if they were only an ear, we couldn't smell a thing. 18But God has put all parts of our body together in the way that he decided is best.

19A body isn't really a body, unless there is more than one part. 20It takes many parts to make a single body. 21That's why the eyes cannot say they don't need the hands. That's also why the head cannot say it doesn't need the feet. 22In fact, we cannot get along without the parts of the body that seem to be the weakest. 23We take special care to dress up some parts of our bodies. We are modest about our personal parts, 24but we don't have to be modest about other parts.

God put our bodies together in such a way that even the parts that seem the least important are valuable. 25He did this to make all parts of the body work together smoothly, with each part caring about the others. 26If one part of our body hurts, we hurt all over. If one part of our body is honored, the whole body will be happy.

27Together you are the body of Christ. Each one of you is part of his body.

Footnotes:

1. 1 Corinthians 12:13 Some of us are Jews. . . that same Spirit: Verse 13 may also be translated, "God's Spirit is inside each of us, and all around us as well. So it doesn't matter that some of us are Jews and others are Gentiles and that some are slaves and others are free. Together we are one body."



my own thought for today

Celebrate the fact that because we know Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior ,we make up the body of Christ even before we knew him we all were made in his image.
we all mess up constantly ,but that does not mean we are not still members of Christ body, Christ sees us as all as blame less and when he sees us he sees his creation as perfect!!!

Romans 12:1-16 (The Message)

Romans 12
Place Your Life Before God
1-2 So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.

3I'm speaking to you out of deep gratitude for all that God has given me, and especially as I have responsibilities in relation to you. Living then, as every one of you does, in pure grace, it's important that you not misinterpret yourselves as people who are bringing this goodness to God. No, God brings it all to you. The only accurate way to understand ourselves is by what God is and by what he does for us, not by what we are and what we do for him.

4-6In this way we are like the various parts of a human body. Each part gets its meaning from the body as a whole, not the other way around. The body we're talking about is Christ's body of chosen people. Each of us finds our meaning and function as a part of his body. But as a chopped-off finger or cut-off toe we wouldn't amount to much, would we? So since we find ourselves fashioned into all these excellently formed and marvelously functioning parts in Christ's body, let's just go ahead and be what we were made to be, without enviously or pridefully comparing ourselves with each other, or trying to be something we aren't.

6-8If you preach, just preach God's Message, nothing else; if you help, just help, don't take over; if you teach, stick to your teaching; if you give encouraging guidance, be careful that you don't get bossy; if you're put in charge, don't manipulate; if you're called to give aid to people in distress, keep your eyes open and be quick to respond; if you work with the disadvantaged, don't let yourself get irritated with them or depressed by them. Keep a smile on your face.

9-10Love from the center of who you are; don't fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good. Be good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle.

11-13Don't burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, cheerfully expectant. Don't quit in hard times; pray all the harder. Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality.

14-16Bless your enemies; no cursing under your breath. Laugh with your happy friends when they're happy; share tears when they're down. Get along with each other; don't be stuck-up. Make friends with nobodies; don't be the great somebody.

Proverbs 24 (The Message)

Proverbs 24
Intelligence Outranks Muscle
19
1-2 Don't envy bad people; don't even want to be around them.
All they think about is causing a disturbance;
all they talk about is making trouble.
20
3-4 It takes wisdom to build a house,
and understanding to set it on a firm foundation;
It takes knowledge to furnish its rooms
with fine furniture and beautiful draperies.
21
5-6 It's better to be wise than strong;
intelligence outranks muscle any day.
Strategic planning is the key to warfare;
to win, you need a lot of good counsel.
22
7 Wise conversation is way over the head of fools;
in a serious discussion they haven't a clue.
23
8-9 The person who's always cooking up some evil
soon gets a reputation as prince of rogues.
Fools incubate sin;
cynics desecrate beauty.
Rescue the Perishing
24
10 If you fall to pieces in a crisis,
there wasn't much to you in the first place.
25
11-12 Rescue the perishing;
don't hesitate to step in and help.
If you say, "Hey, that's none of my business,"
will that get you off the hook?
Someone is watching you closely, you know—
Someone not impressed with weak excuses.
26
13-14 Eat honey, dear child—it's good for you—
and delicacies that melt in your mouth.
Likewise knowledge,
and wisdom for your soul—
Get that and your future's secured,
your hope is on solid rock.
27
15-16 Don't interfere with good people's lives;
don't try to get the best of them.
No matter how many times you trip them up,
God-loyal people don't stay down long;
Soon they're up on their feet,
while the wicked end up flat on their faces.
28
17-18 Don't laugh when your enemy falls;
don't crow over his collapse.
God might see, and become very provoked,
and then take pity on his plight.
29
19-20 Don't bother your head with braggarts
or wish you could succeed like the wicked.
Those people have no future at all;
they're headed down a dead-end street.
30
21-22 Fear God, dear child—respect your leaders;
don't be defiant or mutinous.
Without warning your life can turn upside down,
and who knows how or when it might happen?
More Sayings of the Wise
An Honest Answer
23 It's wrong, very wrong,
to go along with injustice.

24-25 Whoever whitewashes the wicked
gets a black mark in the history books,
But whoever exposes the wicked
will be thanked and rewarded.

26 An honest answer
is like a warm hug.

27 First plant your fields;
then build your barn.

28-29 Don't talk about your neighbors behind their backs—
no slander or gossip, please.
Don't say to anyone, "I'll get back at you for what you did to me.
I'll make you pay for what you did!"

30-34 One day I walked by the field of an old lazybones,
and then passed the vineyard of a lout;
They were overgrown with weeds,
thick with thistles, all the fences broken down.
I took a long look and pondered what I saw;
the fields preached me a sermon and I listened:
"A nap here, a nap there, a day off here, a day off there,
sit back, take it easy—do you know what comes next?
Just this: You can look forward to a dirt-poor life,
with poverty as your permanent houseguest!"

Jesus Christ has the power to...`

5:30 this morning ,I wake up fix my mom some coffee and I fix mine,so I can go take a bath to get ready for work,like normal I fix the coffee then head to the bathroom door and this just start smelling weird and my head spins.I yell for my mom I go get my
anti Vert,I go to lay down the room still spinning ,my mom gets me a half of mu anti Vert meds I try to lay down but can't,then I get this major Migraine headache that makes my head feel like it was gonna bust ,I mean it felt like it was gonna bust .


I started quoting Psalms 23 and singing to my self and God,I really did get so scared it felt like I was explode.for 10 hours I was fighting with hell ,but it was Christ strength that made that fight possible .

Everybody has probably heard of Pear Jam's song alive yes I know ya have haters to that song Iggy the rest of the song " oh I'm still alive" love those lyrics I sing those after anything like surgery or anything in category ,and the but, its not by my own strength that I'm still alive ,its because of Christ ,I just like to sing those lyrics to kick sand in Satan's face . I just thought I would share that with my reads , and be my guest go a head kick some sand in Satan's face he deserves it.

oh yes John Lennon is the Walrus

I love Halo lol

ok I was just browsing youtube on halo videos and I could not stop laughing so enjoy and maybe one day I'll do my own video hehe, till then I am gonna enjoy these videos from others who are like me and insane in the membrane!!!!!!!

Radiohead is amazing ,but....

well I have to say I am a big Radiohead fan, but two people ,one of which I know and who is on his way to being famous joe Causey!!! Ok Joe and a girl named Brooke do amazing Radiohead covers , they have single handedly stomped Radiohead by making the songs that were written a million times better , you can go to Brookes website and there is a link to her youtube page on her site. I have been a fan of Brooke's for about 6 or 7 months,I happend to stumble across her youtube site while searching to see Radiohead covers to their songs and i have to say i was skeptical at first like oh this is gonna be lame like some of the others that try to cover songs and totally ruin the song . so if your a youtuber go check thebrooke out , and stop by my boy Joe Causey's my space site and check him out he is amazing

isn't God just amazing

I have alway be fascinated with comparing the human brain and other parts of the body to computer.The human brain is much like a computer in so many ways, your brain is much like a processor and a hard drive all in one, our bodies created By God are so amazing and to compare the functionalities of the of computers and humans is quiet interesting thing to study.For instance , your heart is like a power supply making the body become alive,but instead of electricity,the heart pumps blood thought out the body giving your major organs,joints,brain,etc... life.Our eyes serve in two ways one as a monitor allowing our us to see things, but also a projector that projects images to the brain that in return allows us to identify our objects and our surroundings, our moths are sort of the opposite of a key board but the function they serve can be to speak so that someone or something can input information.this, leaves me to the ears a person with normal hearing has no trouble using his ears,the ears serve as inputs or our second keyboards,because the eyes can serve in that way too as inputers or keyboards.What I know to be true is that God was the ultimeant Computer designer, but unlike computers this is where we are different ,God gave us free will,computer has to have a controller or a programmer to sit and write or input commands to make the computer function . If,God were to sit there and have to input commands or have to sit down and write program to make us function ,we would be merely nothing but puppets, but that free will God gives us ,we can either use to follow his design for our lives ,or not and choose other paths.

geaux Piper

for today

To live in mutual love, forbearance, and forgiveness;

We must not only do no hurt to any, but do what good we can to all. Those who are the elect of God, holy and beloved, ought to be lowly and compassionate towards all. While in this world, where there is so much corruption in our hearts, quarrels will sometimes arise. But it is our duty to forgive one another, imitating the forgiveness through which we are saved. Let the peace of God rule in your hearts; it is of his working in all who are his. Thanksgiving to God, helps to make us

agreeable to all men. The gospel is the word of Christ. Many have the word, but it dwells in them poorly; it has no power over them. The soul prospers, when we are full of the Scriptures and of the grace of Christ. But when we sing psalms, we must be affected with what we sing. Whatever we are employed about, let us do every thing in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in believing dependence on him. Those who do all in (Christ's name, will never want matter of thanksgiving to God, even the Father.

(Col 3:18-25)

(Col 3:12-14 (The Message)

12-14So, chosen by God for this new life of love, dress in the wardrobe God picked out for you: compassion, kindness, humility, quiet strength, discipline. Be even-tempered, content with second place, quick to forgive an offense. Forgive as quickly and completely as the Master forgave you. And regardless of what else you put on, wear love. It's your basic, all-purpose garment. Never be without it.

something cool + question of the day

ARTHUR D. LAUCK/The Advocate
Kelvin Gauthier stands near his truck stranded on Interstate 10 eastbound Tuesday afternoon. All lanes were closed by State Police after anhydrous ammonia was found leaking from two propane tanks on the shoulder of the roadway. Two men were transporting the tanks in their car.






I wonder if our Meth heads will consider going green now instead polluting our air , and yesterday all i could thing was poor cows that were in that area had to breathe that junk...

blogger vs wordpress

ok I have a wordpress ,I wanted one to try it to see if I would like it more than blogspot, but the only and vantage I can see is the opion to make post private or something I dunno I'm hoping if Robert Terrell read my blog or someone that has used both wordpress and blogspot can enlighten me to more of the advantages of either one of the blogs.

Al Hitler

oh Al

Al gore please shut up ,please folks I am not against the stop global warming, i am a strong supporter .What bothers me is if you or i said wow we need to do something people would be like huh ok, then go on about their every day lives, but if someone like al gore which I prefer to call him by his stage name Al whore they take his message and cause panic, no i am not jealous at all I am glad but, I will say this I am not going green just because these morons say go green. I they said jump would you jump ,we need to focus more on Christ and doing his will rather that becoming a robot controlled by man ,and people of political status..

funny post card

I read this blog that I found a long time ago Robert Terrell I think was the one who told me about this, i will not say the name of the blog because some time what is posted on that blog is just down right stomach flipping and so gross I have to stop reading till new post come in and hope that some thing interesting and not gross gets posted.

no more

ok I pick up on ur sly comments and ur ignoring me when I around and if I talk to much ok i will shut up you won't hear me tomorrow in fact I am gonna say this,I going tomorrow to hang out with my friends and to be have fun hanging out with friends, but as far as me talking very much not happing ,I am about to cry because I did get hurt by some people I truly like and wanna hang around.

and maybe if I was not around ,you would miss me,or maybe you would forget me.

I have some strange friends

I have some very talkative neighbors ,every time I go out side and if they see me they are out side they will start talking to me ,and i will return with a moo of my own because my friendly neighbors are cows!!! I am serious in when I say they talk to me because these cows will see me they will turn and look at me and they start mooing and we moo back and forth and when I stop mooing they go back to doing whatever they were doing. I have even been in the car with my mom and and if those cows are out they will raise their heads and moo, its so funny ,so i have to say i love my friendly neighbors and whats really gonna blow ur minds is it not just the female cows that ar grassing
its the bulls too!!




something else you may find down right funny and I was shocked when this happened,
while I am in Mexico I go out side from the back part of the church we stay at where
we stay at when we go to Mexico and I look out across the road and theres this donkey that was tied up close to this tree and the donkey is looking at me and just staring at me so i walk slowly to the donkey, and when I get up to this donkey it lowers it's head and I could see these flies tha6t were just annoying this poor donkey. That
donkey obviously wanted me to scratch its's head because it just kept it's head down the whole time , the donkey never tried to pull away,so I am here to say I can make
friends just about everywhere I go ,i can make friends with people and animals !!!

THE View 04/23/08

This was Josh Causey's last time to speak @ The View Psarkview Baptist Church's Yout ministry ,and to night we look at this verse in Psalms:

Psalm 126
Restore Our Fortunes, O LORD
A Song of(A) Ascents.
1When the LORD(B) restored the fortunes of Zion,
we were like those who(C) dream.
2Then our(D) mouth was filled with laughter,
and our tongue with shouts of joy;
then they said among the nations,
(E) "The LORD has done great things for them."
3The LORD has done great things for us;
we are glad.

4Restore our fortunes, O LORD,
like streams in the Negeb!
5(F) Those who sow in tears
shall reap with shouts of joy!
6He who goes out weeping,
bearing the seed for sowing,
shall come home with shouts of joy,
bringing his sheaves with him.

Those returned out of captivity are to be thankful.

It is good to observe how God's deliverances of the church are for us, that we may rejoice in them. And how ought redemption from the wrath to come, from the power of sin and of Satan, to be valued! The sinner convinced of his guilt and danger, when by looking to a crucified Saviour he receives peace to his conscience, and power to break off his sins, often can scarcely believe that the prospect which opens to him is a reality. (Ps

126:4-6)

"We tend to be more familiar with our duties than God's design" John Piper


I think this is because we tend to put other things one our priority list ahead of God and doing what he designed us for, we put the stuff that we know we have to do on a daily basis first and tend to put God on the then after I get done part of the list.

old friend

The last couple of days I have just missed so much a dear friend of mine Lauren Wiener,I can remember the memory's of us hanging out and when I was in youth like it was yesterday,and it not just Lauren I miss it all the people i used to hang out with when I was younger but we have all grown up and at least we have the memory's!!!I miss the old days , but I don't I miss the fun times I had with my friends back then ,but i would take some of the other stuff that comes along with the past hehe

Eye floaters

Eye Floaters: What AreThey?
By Lu Baker
Takeaways
People see eye floaters as small specks, cobwebs, or clouds moving in their field of vision.
Nearly everybody has floaters or will develop them at some point of life.
They are harmless, and they usually are just bits of membrane.
Some of the people call them floaters; the Eye doctors call them "vitreous opacities." Vitreous floaters (eye floaters, vitreous opacities) are tiny, cloudy, clumps of cells that appear in the otherwise clear fluid (vitreous) that fills the back three-fourths of the eye. People see eye floaters as small specks, cobwebs, or clouds moving in their field of vision. A woman called Emily Flynn, has even said that hers are like little fuzz balls, and that she has flown half way around the world to have them removed.
After more than 100 pinpoint zaps from a laser beam during about a half hour visit to a Northern Virginia office park, the fuzz balls was gone. The surgeon, Dr. John Karickhoff has done this same procedure over 1,400 times in the past fifteen years and he claims a very successful rate of around more than 90 percent, with minimal risk of any complications. Still many of the ophthalmologists have never even heard of this procedure and even most would recommend against it. Nearly everybody has floaters or will develop them at some point of life, especially older and the nearsighted people.
These funny shaped floaters are like specks or snakes, which just float through a person's field of vision, and are most easily seen when you look against a light back ground like a blue sky or a white wall. I had visited my eye doctor years ago when I noticed these floaters. It scared me, but the doctor told me then that it was a teenage disease. So I just left it at that, it doesn't bother me now as much. It is right when the back ground is light, that you really notice them. Mine were the snake like floaters that went back and forth right in your eye path of reading. Floaters come and go with eye movements, such as blinking. They follow eye movements, but lag behind and float to a halt a few seconds after the eyes stop moving.
These images are most obviously appear when looking at a bright, uniform field of vision, such as a white wall or a clear sky. People may experience one or several floaters in one eye or both. Floaters are not the same as the spots you see after looking at intense light such as from a flashbulb. They are harmless, and they usually are just bits of membrane that have become dislodged from other parts of the eye. Karickhoff has estimated that around 95 percent of the people who have these floaters ought to leave them alone. But for that 5 percent, they can be a legitimate problem.
Some musicians have said that they couldn't read their sheet music quickly enough because the floaters would get in the way. Karickhoff has tried for many years to get the procedure accepted into the medical mainstream. This really could ruin a patient's quality of life. Only a handful of doctors in the United States, maybe a few as two, regularly treat floaters with a laser surgery. American Academy of Ophthalmology, said that most of the ophthalmologists believe that the procedure is unnecessary. The Ophthalmologist uses the laser to clear vision, but most experts say it is a waste of time.
If the patients insist on the treatment, then the laser treatment can be a better choice than the more common alternative, a vitrectomy, which involves removing most or all of the eyeballs internal fluid. Many of the eye doctors are too dismissive of how irritating a floater can be. Just compare it to trying to read a book while holding a pencil directly in front of one of your eyes. This could just be so irritating and maybe you would feel it will drive you up a wall. In Emily Flynn's case, her optometrist in New Zealand told her that the floaters were common and not harmful, and that she should learn to live with it. So she read up on it and learned about Dr. Karickhoff from his Web site.
Karickhoff had said that he knows first hand that the floaters can be troubling, and that he had what he called "whopper" of a floater in his own eye. The doctor was very skeptical when, on a Florida vacation, he saw a newspaper ad touting laser surgery for floaters. So then he sat in on a surgery preformed by another ophthalmologist and later allows this eye doctor to operate on his eye, and the procedure was a success. Not long after, Karickhoff began performing the procedures himself. Both eye doctors have since operated on thousands of patients. Karickhoff has said that he declines to treat patients who are making a mountain out of a molehill, because some of the patients will almost never be satisfied. The eye floaters can irritate some people, and others they don't notice too much at all. Your eye doctor will know what is best for you, if you have floaters, because your eye doctor may see if it may be more serious and how to treat.

The Scientist

Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets, and ask me your questions
Oh lets go back to the start
Running in circles, coming up tails
Heads on a silence apart

Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said that it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start

I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start

Oh ooh ooh ooh ooh ohh (x4)


Trouble
Oh no, I see,
I spun a web, it's tangled up with me,
And I lost my head,
The thought of all the stupid things I said,
Oh no what's this?
A spider web, and I'm caught in the middle,
I turned to run,
The thought of all the stupid things I've done,

I never meant to cause you trouble,
And I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
O no, I never meant to do you harm.

Oh no I see,
A spider web and it's me in the middle,
So I twist and turn,
Here I am in love in a bubble,

Singing, I never meant to cause you trouble,
I never meant to do you wrong,
And I, well if I ever caused you trouble,
Although I never meant to do you harm.

They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me,
They spun a web for me.


Steal my heart and hold my tongue.
I feel my time, my time has come.
Let me in, unlock the door.
I've never felt this way before.

The wheels just keep on turning,
The drummer begins to drum,
I don't know which way I'm going,
I don't know which way I've come.

Hold my hand inside your hands,
I need someone who understands.
I need someone, someone who hears,
For you, I've waited all these years.

For you, I'd wait 'til kingdom come.
Until my day, my day is done.
And say you'll come, and set me free,
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.

In your tears and in your blood,
In your fire and in your flood,
I hear you laugh, I heard you say,
'I wouldn't change a single thing.'

The wheels just keep on turning,
The drummers begin to drum,
I don't know which way I'm going,
I don't know what I've become.

For you, I'd wait 'til kingdom come,
Until my days, my days are done.
Say you'll come and set me free,
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me. Til Kingdom Come

Snow Patrol

Run

I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do

Light up...

Slower slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess

going to ur brother to make things right

The sixth commandment.

The Jewish teachers had taught, that nothing except actual murder was forbidden by the sixth commandment. Thus they explained away its spiritual meaning. Christ showed the full meaning of this commandment; according to which we must be judged hereafter, and therefore ought to be ruled now. All rash anger is heart murder. By our brother, here, we are to understand any person, though ever so much below us, for we are all made of one blood. to �Raca, to � is a scornful word, and comes from

pride: to �Thou fool, to � is a spiteful word, and comes from hatred. Malicious slanders and censures are poison that kills secretly and slowly. Christ told them that how light soever they made of these sins, they would certainly be called into judgment for them. We ought carefully to preserve Christian love and peace with all our brethren; and if at any time there is a quarrel, we should confess our fault, humble ourselves to our brother, making or offering satisfaction for wrong done in word or

deed: and we should do this quickly; because, till this is done, we are unfit for communion with God in holy ordinances. And when we are preparing for any religious exercises, it is good for us to make that an occasion of serious reflection and self-examination. What is here said is very applicable to our being reconciled to God through Christ. While we are alive, we are in the way to his judgement-seat; after death, it will be too late. When we consider the importance of the case, and the

uncertainty of life, how needful it is to seek peace with God, without delay! (Mt 5:27-32)


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Christ commands us to go to one another an settle or our grievances
among one another, and if to reconcile our differences ,and if your brother or sister
comes to you asking for forgiveness we are called to forgive them ,just as
Christ forgives us

in the mist of my frustration

I got a little frustrated in my,I was thinking to my self Tuesday night I
dislike BCM night , but yet working out there is the same as like helping Lamadrid,or
The Ring,or Parkview,the BCM yet its not a church on its own its made up people from different churches its still one of the brides of Christ.I have just gotten real
frustrated about stupid silly little things ,so in the mist of my frustration
I am sorry, and think just because of my stupid silly frustration doesn't give me the right to neglect the bride of Christ or when I feel i need more help doing a
task and feel that if I do get what I want I just stop,which that is totally not me
i have let everything knot up,ball up, or just explode inside.

I love Jesus ,but I don't like some of your so called Christians

Bottom line of this edited post is you do not fall under an umbrella that you can judge others, and remember what ever you do to others you have done to Christ so if you Judge others you judge him as well.
