I'm posting because I have 1 friend who still posts here still. I don't really think this attempt to bring back xanga is going to work.

Hey everyone, long time no see.  
Here is what's up. 

A. I'm hoping to buy a motorcycle this week.  I'll post up some pictures if I do.
B. I'm fixing my airplane this week.   The unfortunate timing of this break down has caused my licensure to be delayed for TOO LONG... Lets pray I can be "re approved" to take the check ride soon.
C. My life is mundane, however, this weekend I was blessed enough to be invited to 2 parties.  For those of you who threw said parties..... splendid, magnificent, and spectacular. 
D. Friday, I'm taking my niece to Chucky Cheese....
E. I was bought at the auction for the youth group to take 2-3 kids from the yg fishing.... that's sooooo much better than pulling weeds in someones garden.
F. I have created this easily readable lettered outline for your xanga viewing pleasure.  I pray for the Grace and Peace of Christ in all of your lives.

I was supposed to be flying to Oklahoma right now.  Since I'm creating this post in the present tense you can assume that either a.)I have an AWESOME laptop or b.)I'm not flying right now.   For those of you who guessed b you win.  I'm not flying right now because of the weather. 

It's frustrating and amazing at the same time how easily our plans can be changed by circumstances beyond our control.  Last night there was no way for me to know that a huge storm would pop up right in the middle of my flight plan but lo and behold when I woke up to check the weather there sat the storm of doom right over top of witchita.  As with every unexpected change I had to choose how to accept the change in my plans. I suppose I could get upset with God for putting the storm in my way but in my mind blaming God isn't really a responsible way to go about things.  While it is true that the storm has had an adverse affect on my plans the storm could also be blessing many farmers who to this point have been trying to convice themselves that if they just keep things weeded they'll atleast have a good crop of dehydrated corn.  As for myself, what if God really needs my aunt and uncle available for a divine appointment during the time they might have been picking me up?  Or what if God needs me here for some similar appointment? OR maybe there is just a storm and storms happen and just like emotional storms in our lives I've just got to learn how to use patience and reason to wait things out. 

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

Can you have faith today, no matter what your cirmcumstances either physically or emotionally that God has plans for you?  Can you praise Him for the storms that have beset you with that knowledge? 

Has God blessed you through a storm this week, month, year?  Sharing with the rest of us might just help somone else get through their storm.
