One of the guys from work was recently delivered by Jesus from years of alcoholism after watching this video. The climax of the story is very powerful.

What are you thankful for?
I have a new cell phone, one I actually like. There are some apps I don't need (Ok, a lot of them), but I like the phone itself.

I just need to relax and do the test, not worry about what happens after that. The further I go on the journey of pursuing a doctoral degree the narrower our path becomes, for lots of reasons, and I have decided to believe that God is directing each step of the journey. It seems following God's call is often like that. It's like being in a desert and hearing a voice in the distant mountains. You journey toward the voice, but you must enter the hills before you really know which mountain He is calling from. So, you start climbing hills in the general direction of the call. Sometimes you move forward, sometimes sideways, sometimes you back up and travel through a valley to get to a third point beyond the rises on either side. It's a pathless journey at fi
