“It is better to be divided by truth than united in error; it is better to speak truth that hurts & then heals than to speak a lie; it is better to be hated for telling the truth than to be loved for telling a lie; it is better to stand alone with truth than to be wrong with the ultitude...The religion of today is ‘get-along-ism.’ It is time for men & women of God to stand, [even] if they have to stand alone.†~ Adrian Rogers
Hello all! I am currently separated / single and hopefully will soon be divorced from a very short and not so great marriage. It just barely started in July of 2008 and was ended by her on Valentine's Day 2008. This of course being only two days after her not coming home from an all nighter out at the bar! Oh, well...LOL!! :-P
I will soon be 35 yrs old (as of 07/31/08), just about 5' 11" & about 180lbs. I have two AWESOME lil boys named Jacob II (age 10) & Jeremy (age 7). I love hanging w/ my friends in person or even online (when I can). I attend Sunnyside Christian Church here in Colorado Springs, CO. I love to help a lot at Sunnyside in the Children's Ministry. The Children's Minister (Curtis) & his wife (Jen) are some of the best friends I could ever dream of in the world. As of 05/11/06, an almost 12 yr marriage and a total of almost 14 yr relationship ended w/ the mother of my two kids. It's ok though... God is AWESOME!! He took great care of me & the boys through it all. He still takes great care of us through everything, & keeps us strong. Although things are continuously changing in my life, God keeps things interesting! I am single again & am happy to be that way right now. I had met a woman while out dancing that thought she wanted a good Christian man, but that wasn't the case it seems. She moved out and moved on to other things in life. All is good though, as the boys and I are so much happier now w/ out her around. Life is so much better!! Honestly, w/ out the Lord in my life... I would be a total wreck! Oh & btw, I am not a "Bible Beater" by any means, but I'm truly a "Jesus Freak"! :)
God Bless You All !!!
"I am a Christian" by Maya Angelou
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not shouting "I'm clean livin."
I'm whispering "I was lost,"
Now I'm found and forgiven.
When I say..."I am a Christian"
I don't speak of this with pride.
I'm confessing that I stumble
and need CHRIST to be my guide.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not trying to be strong.
I'm professing that I'm weak
and need HIS strength to carry on.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not bragging of success.
I'm admitting I have failed
and need God to clean my mess.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not claiming to be perfect,
My flaws are far too visible
but, God believes I am worth it.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I still feel the sting of pain,
I have my share of heartaches
So I call upon His name.
When I say... "I am a Christian"
I'm not holier than thou,
I'm just a simple sinner
who received God's good grace, somehow.
Praise be to God!!
Romans 9:5 (NLT)
...And he is God, who rules over everything and is worthy of eternal praise! Amen.
