Hebrews 11

By faith Abraham went, even though he didn't know where he was going.

Without faith it is impossible to please God.

Also, thank God for friends.

patience

sometimes it seems like everything is all wrong at the same time.

or like everything is not happening all at the same time.

lalala...

sometimes waiting is so painful.

what will happen?

...just waiting for the phone to ring. Anything!

straight on.

I have this tendency to go full in until I'm bored of something.

Example? Okay, well, if I find a band or group I like, I listen to their music over and over again. And usually that means I don't listen to any of my other music until that one band gets boring and I get so sick of it that I never want to hear it again....at least not for a long time.

That particular music right now is the music of Matt Costa.

I get side tracked with Counting Crows now and then, though.

autumn

I like the smell of leaves changing color.

The search for a job, that is.

still nothing in sight...except book work and etc at home.

One new student, though!!!

still no job.

still learning to trust God.

Oregon is a beautiful state.

Friends are the best gift.

what I've been doing while jobless.

So, I've almost been jobless for a week. It's been nice, actually. I've been spending time with my family. Dad was off the first three days I was off, so that was sweet. I've been bringing around flyers and resumes, calling schools, and organizing my studio.

Of course, I've also been doing summer holiday-ish things. IKEA date with my sisters, tubing and boating with my parents and brothers, and visiting the St Jacob's market...where Kim and I totally lost mom and decided to spend all our money on jewelery:)

For the most part, it's been a nice holiday, despite the fact that job hunting is probably the worst thing to have on one's to-do list ever.

Fix your eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith - Hebrews 12

Teen 2 - Campfire!

what I learned...again.

HE must become
GREATER,
I must become
LESS.

John 3:30NIV

And, even when people and circumstances are always changing, God stays the same. He's always right there beside you, the entire way.
