Monday, October 2, 2006 - Ingrown Toenail and Going to Church
 This entry on my blog is dedicated to another blogger and friend, Jessica.
Jessica
has written on her blog a while back about her struggles in finding a
new church home. Believe me I understand. Every since I moved to this rinky-dink
little town it has been very difficult for me not only to find a church
home but to attend worship service regularly. As many of my online
friends know I work swing shifts. It makes it very difficult to attend
church services regularly. In fact, 4 days this week I am working 10 pm
to 8am in which midnight to 8am I am working at the office alone. My
duties on this shift are to man the phones and watch our computer
networks. If our networks have any problems I am to report it
immediately an engineer, even if I have to wake them up! So, even if I
ever get a Sunday off it is still very difficult to get up to attend
worship services because I am often so exhausted on Sunday mornings.
Not attending church regularly makes it also very difficult to be motivated to attend. It is like my ingrown toenail
(and I will be glad to explain this illustration). Often I would go
walking in a local park either before or after work. The exercise is
fun, it gives me a chance to get some exercise, and it helps me to
control my blood sugar. When I first started walking it was really
difficult to get motivated because diabetes makes me sooooo tired all
the time.
Slowly I began to motivate myself to start walking. At
first I started to walk to one end of the park and back. In a few days
I began to walk the entire one and half mile of the course. Before long
I am walking the entire course twice (three miles). Now I am on a roll
and I am feeling so much better until I started to develop an ingrown
toenail. UGH!
The ingrown toenail killed my enthusiasm for
walking. Last year I had the same problem. When I was really getting
into the walking the ingrown toenail interrupted the momentum of my
enthusiasm and when this happened it took months before I was able to
build the enthusiasm back to the same level.
It is the same way
with church attendants. When I don

Saturday, September 30, 2006 - Masculine Reality
 When
Joshua was by Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a
man was standing before him with his drawn sword in his hand. And
Joshua went to him and said to him, "Are you for us, or for our
adversaries?" (Joshua 5:13 - ESV) A
friend of mine sent this little tidbit to my email. After he explained
recoil to me I had to chuckle. I never been in the military and recoil
is what I would of call a kick after shooting a shotgun.
It
is nice to see masculinity on display in a feminized press who has no
clue about what the military do in the time of war. If I ever met this
GI who responded to the perky one

About Me
Hello, My name is Tim. I live at Clarksburg WV (a very small town) and I don't often get to discuss Reformed Theology with my Christian friends. I attend church sometimes but my work doesn't allow me to attend regularly so I will be using this blog to get out my thoughts about Reformed Theology. Reformed Theology is NEVER dull, it is LIFE!
