welcome to my zone. this is where i place my thoughts, whenever i think they're worth thinking about. being my senior year of high school, life is quite busy, and i won't be posting as often as i'd like to be. also, if you don't mind, send up a little prayer for me every now and then, that God would strengthen me against the powers and temptations of satan and give me wisdom in this seemingly critical time of my life.

the Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up His countenance on you and give you peace. (numbers 6:24-26 nasb)

This is Nothing New

I've been thinking.

What do I bring to the blog world? I think the answer is nothing. Nothing new at least. I hope the answer is nothing. If I were bringing anything new, then it certainly would not be from the Bible, and thus not be according to God's law. Like I mentioned in my previous post, God's got it all covered. He doesn't need people like me to bring new revelations to the world. So why do I blog?

I blog for me. I blog to sort things out in my own head, to drive things home. I don't expect to bring anything new to the table. I'm just reinforcing Biblical methods. I hope. My purpose is to look at old things in a new way, not to find new things altogether. With this in mind, while reading this or any other blog, learn from perspective, not new ideas.

Hey Dan, good thoughts. Ya. We really don't present anything new, just old with newness, and eternal things with a for today-ness. Good to read ya man. You are such a great young man of God...keep on after his heart, and guard your own. God job!
