www.google.comThough I don't know how many people have been following my blog ever since the 7 months of silence, I am actually glad God brought my attention back to this blog again because it reminded me of many things God has already done in the past when I have suffered similar incidents that it gives me 'more confidence' now that God can provide for me in that area and then some :) I'M SORRY...
In spite of the sympathy I feel for Paul Morris and all my other friends who have had bad news this year, 2010 has also been an eventful year for me. Yes, it was also full of disappointments such as when I had to miss out on my ministry opportunity in the summer and when I couldn't get the OSAP funding I needed for tuition and what not in January for the winter 2010 term.
But at the same time, I've also allowed a lot of Romans 12 to work in me and through these challenges and praying for the challenges of others I feel God has continued building upon me the spirit of love and servant hood I know he wants me to have as His prince [Romans 8:16-17, Ephesias 3:2-6].
I've also had the opportunity to experience the 'full-*seminary*' experience being in the community here at Residence and it's allowed me to really enjoy what people praised Urbana for except on a smaller, but much longer term scale. I am finally beginning to see the light on what my friend (who also prophesied 1 John 4 to me once in prayer) said that it's a blessing to be able to live at *seminary* and both bless and be blessed by the community. Especially those of you who know me know that I truly do suffer from the 'delayed adolescence' Morris talked about in his sermon that night and it's great to be in a community that is loving and understanding rather than judgmental and condescending of my inability to do the small things sometimes, such as forgetting to check whether I had cleared ALL of my clothing out of the washer before starting the dryer... Interesting analogy for the OTHER 'small things' that are important and do matter before one tries to take on the bigger task if you know what I'm saying ;)
I'm working on an article for the Canon describing just how blessed my family experience here at *seminary* has been and how much I still love the community despite when my buttons were sometimes pushed, but at the same time, that's 'family' and that's life. Besides, being home now for the holidays, I've come to realize just how much worse being with my immediate family is in comparison and I really miss you guys! i-AV: "OUCH..." ;)

LOL... I know this is going to come out WRONG... but I think the SamanthaS and I need to have a TALK... Of course Sammi Cheng can sit out if she wants too, I understand, she's too busy being pretty and singing... 'that's what she's good at...' :P
Hey, I am checking this blog using the phone and this appears to be kind of odd. Thought you'd wish to know. This is a great write-up nevertheless, did not mess that up.

In a sense I would have to agree David, a lot of these recent postings, not to mention the ones from last year as well are quite incomplete and suspect perhaps that the author here writes them with the intention for some posts to 'cliffhangers' leaving us 'wanting more' as he does make mention to a '7 months of silence period' here. Especially when it comes to some of Paul Morris' sermons and the mention to his 'Gift of Prophecy' sermon/teaching that was mentioned recently by the Pastor leading our current series here at the Meeting House. Would it maybe help if I posted some notes from the message by Paul that night?
Hi guys,
David, I actually know a lot of people with your first name, not that I'm necessarily asking you to identify yourself, but personally I do not own any Blackberry or other devices that do allow me to check blogs 'using the phone'. And in regards to your question, something's kind of odd as well cause when I looked at the file on my Desktop that I assumed was the source document for this file, I found one statement and only one statement that does not appear to be in this entry at all, though I agree with that statement though =D
