He knows what He is about

      November 13th, 2008

God has created me to do Him some definite service. If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him; in perplexity, my perplexity may serve Him. He does nothing in vain. He knows what he is about. He may take away my friends, He may throw me among strangers. He may make me feel desolate, make my spirits sink, hide my future from me — still He knows what He is about.

    Welcome ...
    ... to my little corner of the internet. My blog's greatest asset is it’s auto-magically random randomness. A record of a few of my life observations, spiritual ponderings, and goofy anecdotes, I hope you find something that tickles or inspires you.

    I also hope you leave a comment because, heck yeah, they’re fun! For the record, I believe in God. While I am far from religious, I strive to be profoundly spiritual. And, uh, yeah … I fall down a lot!
