Last Night (God's Affirmation)

Wow,
So I was working last night in the kitchen. And I heard God's voice ask me, "How bad do you want to talk to Karolyn?" And I said to my self, "really!? I'm having this covo with God? ok!" Then I said to God, "Alot!" And He said to me, "Who means more to you?" and i said, "You of course!" and he said "then postpone talking to her and come and talk to me, alone and separated from everyone, I have something special for you that you need/ want". So, after work i went down to the ocean (a 30 second walk literally) and God asked me "whats holding you back from pursuing your passion?" and I said "my daily pride, sin and doubt, I think that everytime I sin i start back at square one with you and I don't know when or if I am ever gunna get to do ur will." I started to have tears run down my cheeks, cuz i felt His holy presence holding me and then He said "It's coming, real soon... just keep on this path and be not discouraged" "For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God".

I'm so excited to see who, what, when, where and how I am gunna do God's will!!!

Learning more and more...about ME.

So, My wonderful, Godly, Beautiful and amazingly Wise girlfriend took some great advice from some of our friends. To read these books for couples. And in doing so I am learning so much about myself!!! My walk with God is so strong. And my devotion to both God and karloyn are ever so strong. I love learning information from books. The books are "For men only" and "for women only". here's what we've done... she reads the for men only and highlights and writes notes that pertain to her, so when i read that exact book, i not only learn about women...but about my woman. And i do the same with the for women only... then we exchange the books and "Do our homework". Plus we are doing "Devotions for Couples"... and that one strengthens the relationship in God... where God is the foundation and not eachother.

I Love you God... thankyou for blessing me with a Godly woman!
I love you karolyn... ::IYFY::

Love,
ME

Temptation

So, 'bout 4 hours ago I talked to a group of college students about saying "on-fire for God" and not losing their "fire" when they leave camp. It was powerful and they responded well to it. =0)
And I was feeling real good about how it went, obviously Satan thought it went well too. So he tempted me...
Flash back:
About a month ago I was witnessing to a friend and telling her that she didn't need to dress so provocatively and model naked for photographers. She was mad because i deleted her from my friends list of facebook and because these were my reasons for doing it.
Present:
About 10 minutes ago I received 3 e-mails from this girl (and they were sent to approx. 50 other men) all containg nude or partially nude, very risque, pornographic pictures.
I was disgusted because i knew she was trying to make me lust after her and look at her in ways I had preached against.

Thank you Jesus, for your self- control you have instilled in me!
My life would still be in shambles if it weren't for you!
I am everything I am because of you!!!

Things are looking up...

How did I not know this earlier in life? Better yet, why didn't I just listen to what people were telling me? Blessings are all around me! My Lord and Savior is so graceful, My girlfriend is an angel sent from above, My job; although tiresome at times is a blessing to my soul. My music is such an impact on my life, and God has sent me people with same music tastes and new music tastes that share their's with me and I get uplifted by all this christian music!!! God has done amzing things in my life, everryone can look at my pictures and see what was a fake smile and one that is genuine... God is so genuine and is ever so graceful and I owe all to Him!!! I know things will get hard and stressful at times, depression might even kick in at times, But God is my light and my shield and my friend who sticks closer than a brother.

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with All your heart and lean not on your own understandings, in all your ways acknowledge Him and he will direct your paths.

This is a nice celtic cross.

My dedication...

I dedicated this one to my son... It means to me, that you'd have to do all this to get to my son. The kanji on top means LOYALTY.

Samurai

Well, this one is a kanji (japanese symbol) that says "Samurai"; samurai means Servant to the king... I am a servant to my King. Jesus Christ!!

My latest tattoo....

Well I got this one on my outter, right forearm...
It says "West Coast Born, 3rd Coast Bred"
3rd Coast = TEXAS... thus the flag!!!

Oak Cliff, Dallas is Home!!!

No Fear

This tattoo I got when I was on R&R from Iraq and I put it on my upper back.
Kinda proud American and Ain't scared of the devil!

Phoenix

The Phoenix represents a bird on fire. The bird part is a dove or the Holy Spirit. And the flames represent an action of God. My name in Hebrew means "Fire of God". So now you can see how this tattoo means alot to me. And how This phoenix (me) is Rising from the Ashes.

The kanji: Bottom = Phoenix
Middle = Immortal
Top = Heavenly
