'Tis me!

Hey, just me letting everybody know I'm still alive. I've been busy lately. I still don't have my greencard so I can't get an actual job, but I've been painting for a lady in our church for some good money. Painting isn't that fun of a job, especially when you're doing it all alone. I've started talking to myself...a lot. But with the money I'm getting out of it, I'm not complaining. I have an Xbox now...and the greatest game in the world, Halo 2!!! It's hard not to blow all my money as soon as I make it. I've been making sure that I tithe. It's important to do so. It's sowing and reaping. Whatever I give to God, He'll give it back even greater. Technically, tithing means to give 10% of what you have(tithe=10), but I like to give more because it's like...the more I give...the more I get. Of course, that's not the main reason I tithe. I tithe because it's in God's word, it's something that He honors. The whole reaping and sowing thing is just a promise He gave us that I believe in. The awesome internship I was in for 2 years is out for the summer, but I'm finished. Time to move on to something else. I'm getting really worn out by all the stuff going on right now. I know, I could be doing more, and there are people that do more than I do...but it's a lot for me. I'm working basically a 25-35 hours a week job, youth group leadership, and worship team. And trying to keep up with friends. Not to mention the burden of relationship stress at times(girls, friendships falling apart). But God's still God...and He's faithful. So...it's all good.
