Love is more than an emotion. It is more than just hollow words uttered out of obligation. It is a verb. It encompasses every aspect of who God is and who He wants us to be. Love in its purist form has no boundaries and no conditions. It is an unwavering devotion and an illogical affection.

For those of us that don't have a "special someone" this valentines day, let us remind ourselves of loves true meaning and true origin. True love comes from God. He created us to love Him and He is the greatest valentine anyone could receive. He sacrificed his son because of his love so that we could be with Him despite our sins. And He gave us the freedom of choice because true love requires us choosing and not being forced.


1 Corinthians 13
1If I speak in the tongues[a] of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames,[b] but have not love, I gain nothing.
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

So, not too much excitement lately but enough to keep me from going insane. I am working on some computer certifications in order to attempt to find a job in the IT industry. That is going pretty well so far (nothing too difficult).

I have also been making a few changes in my life lately. I have decided the thing that has been dragging me down lately is just being stuck in the same routine all of the time. So, I have been trying to do things to better my situation in life instead of just sitting here everyday and conforming to the shedule and routines that are my life. The main step I am taking is actually just praying a lot and asking God for direction. I am taking time to remember that its not about me but it is for Him that I live. I am putting a lot more energy into the passions that He has given me for ministry and for music and I am having a blast learning new guitar techniques and I am even actually learning to play the piano/keyboard.

I am also doing things to look out for my health and help me not to feel so drained of energy all of the time (I also need to lose a few pounds). I have cut down on the junk that I eat and I have also cut down on the amount of soda's I drink (Dr Pepper I'll miss you!!). I am not cutting anything completely out because I think that is what makes people go back and continue their old eating and nutrition habits even more. I am, however, eating a lot healthier foods. I have also decided to be more active when I can. I am not committing to a difficult workout routine but instead I am just getting out more and using more of my energy by not sitting at a computer desk all day every day.

Well, I'm really not sure where I am going with this post but I wanted to start updating this blog more often so there it is. I might update again later today. Until then God Bless!!

Audience of One
Big Daddy Weave


I come on my knees
To lay down before you
Bringing all that I am
Longing only to know you
Seeking your face
And not only your hand
I find you embracing me
Just as I am
And I lift these songs
To you and you alone
As I sing to you
In my praises make your home

To my audience of one
You are Father, and you are Son
As your spirit flows free,Let it find within me
A heart that beats to praise you.
And now just to know you more
Has become my great reward
To see your kingdom come
And your will be done
I only desire to be yours,Lord

Sometimes I get so wrapped in what I want or how things just aren't going my way that I forget that it's not about me. My life should not always be based on my own wants and desires but on God's will for my life. I forget what God tells me is the right thing to do and I conform to the worlds standards. So today I decided to take a step back and look at the situation I am really in. My job is not really as bad as I make it to be some days and when it is bad it is usually because of my negative reaction to a stressful situation. I need to live above the impact of negative influences around me and reach for God's outstretched arms because I know that He is there just waiting for me.

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. (Romans 12:2)


Let me only live for You Lord. Let every song, every word, every breath be for You. Let me bring everything I am to You every moment of every day. When I go to work let me work for You. When I am with my family let me see your work in their lives. Let me love in the same way I am loved by You. When I sing and play guitar let my only audience be You. Amen
