Beautiful

Here is one more poem for you guys. :-) It's pretty long, but it's one of my better ones I think.
I'm actually trying to write music for it... but we'll see how that goes.:-)

Made like our God,
A beautiful perfection,
Believed the lies,
That broke, and ruined me.
A wretched heart,
No hope of salvation,
Until I gave it
to the Man from Galilee.
-----------------------
and said, please
Take it
Break it
Change it
Rearrange it,
My heart, on this cross
of Calvery...
Mold it
Build it
Hold it
And fill it
then give it back to me...
Beautiful
----------------------
Sometimes it hurts,
this awesome transformation,
Sometimes the pain,
is more than I can bear,
But than I think,
of Jesus Christ's redemption,
I see a cross,
I see a Savior there!
-----------------------
and He's
Taking
Breaking
Changing
Rearranging
My heart, on His cross,
of Calvery...
Molding
Building
Holding
and Filling,
and giving it to me...
Oh Jesus now I see
I'll live my life to be
Beautiful
---------------------
Because You
Took
Broke
Changed
Rearranged,
My life, on Your cross,
of Calvery...
And You
Molded
Built
Held
Filled
Until I can stand before my King
----------
Beautiful

They told me to post this...

Who wrote that bulletin, lol! You don't want to know how many people commented on it...

Would you rather...

Ok that last post was a little weird so here's a new one.

WHAT WOULD YOU RATHER DO--like right now.

Some more "Deep thoughts"

These things are so lame they're kinda funny.
When you're riding in a time machine way far into the future, don't stick your elbow out the window, or it'll turn into a fossil.
****************
Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth you'd probably be able to get a lot of free games.
****************
I bet when the neanderthal kids would make a snowman, someone would always end up saying, "Don't forget the thick, heavy brows." Then they would all get embarrassed because they remembered they had the big hunky brows too, and they'd get mad and eat the snowman.
****************
I hope if dogs ever take over the world, and they chose a king, they don't just go by size, because I bet there are some Chihuahuas with some good ideas.
****************
I bet the main reason the police keep people away from a plane crash is they don't want anybody walking in and lying down in the crash stuff, then, when somebody comes up, act like they just woke up and go, "What was THAT?!"
****************
Ambition is like a frog sitting on a Venus Flytrap. The flytrap can bite and bite, but it won't bother the frog because it only has little tiny plant teeth. But some other stuff could happen and it could be like ambition.
****************
If you ever teach a yodeling class, probably the hardest thing is to keep the students from just trying to yodel right off. You see, we build to that.
****************
If you ever fall off the Sears Tower, just go real limp, because maybe you'll look like a dummy and people will try to catch you because, hey, free dummy.
****************
When I was a kid my favorite relative was Uncle Caveman. After school we'd all go play in his cave, and every once in a while he would eat one of us. It wasn't until later that I found out that Uncle Caveman was a bear.
****************
Children need encouragement. If a kid gets an answer right, tell him it was a lucky guess. That way he develops a good, lucky feeling.
****************
If you're robbing a bank and you're pants fall down, I think it's okay to laugh and to let the hostages laugh too, because, come on, life is funny.
****************
I think a good product would be "Baby Duck Hat". It's a fake baby duck, which you strap on top of your head. Then you go swimming underwater until you find a mommy duck and her babies, and you join them. Then, all of a sudden, you stand up out of the water and roar like Godzilla. Man, those ducks really take off! Also, Baby Duck Hat is good for parties.
****************
Many people think that history is a dull subject. Dull? Is it "dull" that Jesse James once got bitten on the forehead by an ant, and at first it didn't seem like anything, but then the bite got worse and worse, so he went to a doctor in town, and the secretary told him to wait, so he sat down and waited, and waited, and waited, and waited, and then finally he got to see the doctor, and the doctor put some salve on it? You call that dull?

Start

Why are they here
What are they doing?
Nobody knows,
if they're coming or going.
Grace given to us,
God working through us,
Hope for the cause,
Starting with us.
----------------------
We've got to
Tell the world
Change the world
Show the world what's true,
We've got to
pass it on,
living strong,
weve got to
start with me and you.

Start with me and you.

How smart are you??

PREFACE: IN THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS FIELD YOU MUST BE ABLE TO DISTINGUISH COLORS WITH-IN MULTI -CONDUCTOR CABLES. THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT COLORED WIRES CONTAINED IN A SINGLE CABLE. BELOW, YOU WILL FIND WORDS WRITTEN IN DIFFERENT COLORS. AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN, READ ALOUD THE COLOR THAT EACH WORD IS WRITTEN IN.....NOT THE ACTUAL WORD THAT'S WRITTEN.


GREEN YELLOW BLUE ORANGE WHITE RED GREEN BLUE ORANGE YELLOW WHITE GREEN RED BLUE WHITE GREEN ORANGE YELLOW ORANGE BLUE GREEN RED WHITE YELLOW RED BLUE YELLOW ORANGE RED WHITE

ACTUALLY, THIS TEST IS CHECKING YOUR BRAINS ABILITY TO SEPARATE THE LEFT BRAIN FUNCTIONS AND RIGHT BRAIN FUNCTIONS. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE LEFT SIDE OF YOUR BRAIN IS TRYING TO TELL YOU TO READ THE WORD, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME, THE RIGHT SIDE OF YOUR BRAIN IS TRYING TO TELL YOU TO IDENTIFY THE COLOR!!!

OCHEC

Hey! I'm posting again! (I wonder how many of my posts have started out this way...)
OCHEC was awesome this year, I haven't decide which of the past two was the best.. I liked the speakers and speeches better last year but the group and hanging out this year waas amazing.
I would say my favorite part was our official hangout, "the roof" That was so fun... it's amazing how weird people can be when they're in the right mood... :-) I wonder where our "emerald" is now, lol
What was all yours?
Dr. Humphrey Speech was definetly the best, that was sooo awesome man! SO LOUD!! we all plugged our ears the second time and we still jumped, lol
hmmm... what else was there... um, there was the musical presentation friday night, which was ok, the piano playing was amazing, but I didn't care for the singing.
Than we went home, and Miriam and I giggled hysterically the first half of the way home, everything was just so funny... we would tell eachother lame jokes and then just howl at them, while Chris and Liz were just sitting there looking at us like we were from mars... and then slept the rest of the way, and then woke up the next morning perfect zombies... and of course they had to do Joe Boot just then... you (I) cannot concentrate on that guy!!
Oh, and the "art" :-) two huge rusty stars on top of eachother that we were sitting on (on the roof) and the security guys came and told us not to sit on "the art" lol what next.... reminds me of Dr. Phillip's (or was it Snavely...?) description of modern art in new york... :-D "All you need to do is stick a feather in your mouth, then barf on the canvas, and then stand back and say "ooh, it's aht, beee-uuu-tee-ful aht..."
I laughed so hard...
Oh man we did so many interesting things.. but I forget half of them right now...
Oh yeah, btw Andrew, you do know we were totally kidding about the excersise thing eh? I mean you're like so chubby man! :-)
And sliding down the escalator banister...:-) I really wanted to do that but I didn't cuz the adults were all standing at the bottom waiting for us.
And then we went home and crashed. The End.
