A Billboard on the way home from Ohio:
AVOID HELL
REPENT
TRUST IN JESUS NOW
School is OVER…
Time for those relaxing days on the…. wait i’m getting ahead of myself…
But it does definetly feel good to be done…
Now its off to the Nati for the beans. well most of them (erin’s still sleeping )
Nati Here we come!!!
Well, just got news that the beans get to be in the nati this weekend or at least close… We’ll be staying with the johnsons… thank you very much Glenn and Cathy……
I’m really glad i get to spend more time with Chris and his family and the Bishops…
I do desperatley wish that the Rains and the kecks and the rest of the crew could be there but reality sucks…
Safe travels though to you Kevin…
Hopefully the October/November gathering will become real….
Can’t wait to spend some time with everyone this weekend… blessings to you
The last week of school is staring me straight in the eyes…. Finals are haunting me… a recent ankle injury type thing is SLOWING me down… the last week with my Summit friends. but then again…
vacation to Disney in 2 weeks… maybe a trip to cinci or vermont… more time to spend with just myself (good and bad)… and then the start of High School (also good and bad)..
I have been so blessed to be at Summit and i will keep all that i have learned with me always..
And i will truly miss you Magister Lortz. BLessing to you this day..
Another dear dear friend of mine passed… His name was Kurt Lortz.
He was incredible and magnificant….
I hate that he died because of cancer…
I love him so much and i wish for him back..
I regret that i never visited him in the hospital…Man i miss him
In the midst though of all this grief…tonight was my schools award night…
I recieved… Magna Cum Laude…
and The Palma of Isaac Watts… never expected…
And today is my father’s Birthday…Happy Birthday Big Bean!
–Non Nobis Domine–
I want to see my friends that live on the other side of the US…. but then reality sets in….
Reality Sucks… most of the time…
My dad surprised me yesterday with a large antique map which i had been wanting for a long time… i’ve always wanted one to put up in my room..and i finally got one… then today me and my dad went to go get supplies to hang it up. and i found one of my favorite artworks “The Lady of Shallot” by John Waterhouse. and now i have that in my room… so exciting.
I also was introduced to an artist (music wise) named Brandi Carlile. its a acoustic cd and very enjoyable. she also happened to do a song called “Hallelujah” your probably familiar with it from the movie “Shrek.” I just recently got into and and started reading the comments on the song by other people… what it meant, references and the sort… very intresting..
-and lastly a prayer that “sang to my heart”.
Jesus, Bless my conception.
Jesus, bless my time in the womb
May the peace of the birth of Jesus be on my birth.
I present my whole being to Jesus.
May Jesus be in all the suffering of my life.
May Jesus heal me by His stripes.
Jesus, crown me with glory, praise, honour and thanksgiving.
Jesus, teach me to carry my cross and follow You.
Lord Jesus, recieve my spirit.
Jesus, bless me in my daily death.
Jesus, bless me in my final death.
Jesus, give me a power of resurrection in each day of my life.
Jesus, be with me all my days.
Jesus, fill me with the Holy Spirit.
Jesus, lead me from earth to heaven.
Jesus, make me the person I am meant to be.
-Aiden Clarke
Time seems to fly by me pretty fast…. i remeber things like they were yesterday…. it doesn’t feel like i’ve lived fourteen years!
But then again i can’t wait for my age to ketch up with my height….
seeing pictures of me this little makes me sad that time passes so fast… I miss those days when i was small enough to cuddle in my fathers arms….when my mom and i use to fight over our hair for church.. (we both had to look our best.. as if God cares how we look….)
i don’t want to go away for college…. i love my family. i can’t imagine being so far away from them.. they mean everything to me!!! and it makes it so convienent to want to go Stanford University….
the one thing i love about time is the people i share time with….love to all…
Still my heart and hold my tongue
I feel my time, my time has come
Let me in, unlock the door
I never felt this way before
And the wheels just keep on turning
And 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 head 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 sing
I wouldn’t change a single thing
And 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 day, my day is done
And 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
-Coldplay
