mmmookie: The Adventures of a typical boring family

http://mmmookie.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-adventures-of-typical-boring-family.html

Thoughts and ramblings from one messed up missionary. Monday, June 3, 2013. The Adventures of a typical boring family. It's been about a year since i really updated this thing. though i did try to restart my xanga. Once inbetween and have had many dreams of blogging again. i think it'd be good for me. but i guess life has been busy and i've been wasting time. I used to blog a lot, about all the exciting things going on. and i think perhaps we have settled into the mundane, into our thirties. She's not pe...

mmmookie: July 2012

Thoughts and ramblings from one messed up missionary. Sunday, July 1, 2012. The one on July 1st. A lot has happened in the last 4 months. a lot to be thankful for. But right now, i just want to thank God for today. Today i am thankful for. 1 The opportunity to go to church - that is the freedom to go to church. 2 God created us for community, and gives us opportunity to fellowship. 3 God has united us as one body. I hope i can get back into this, now that 2012 is half-over. Links to this post. The thing ...

mmmookie: May 2011

http://mmmookie.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html

Thoughts and ramblings from one messed up missionary. Tuesday, May 31, 2011. The one with a "Water" fast. I am going to give you a challenge. a challenge to give. and a challenge to grow. a challenge to faith. The Lord has been putting a lot of impressions on me recently. a lot to do with giving and money and the poor. and steps of faith and growth. and instead of simply restricting myself, seeking more ways to give. Then i was studying I Timothy 6 and the love of money. leading to all kinds of evil.

mmmookie: February 2014

Thoughts and ramblings from one messed up missionary. Monday, February 24, 2014. The thing about momentum. I really want to start blogging again - but i can’t get myself to do it. i feel like there are things i want to write about, but i can’t get into the mood of actually writing…. When player gets on a roll, they have more confidence and take shots and they get into a rhythm. They are not distracted, not over thinking - they just shoot. 8220;He’s on fire! 8221; as NBA jam would say. When i schedule my ...

mmmookie: October 2011

http://mmmookie.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html

Thoughts and ramblings from one messed up missionary. Thursday, October 6, 2011. The thing about Steve Jobs. I am writing this on a Mac. I had said I never wanted a Mac and never would get one. In college, as a writing major, we had to use macs all the time – apparently they were great for design… but at Purdue, they were just old…. And I hated not having my right click/left click buttons…. I began reading some things about him- and he certainly led an interesting life. Put up for adoption… rejecte...

Thoughts and ramblings from one messed up missionary. Monday, February 14, 2011. The one where goals get in the way of your goals. It's been said "The Main. Thing is to keep the Main thing the Main thing.". I've discovered recently that I’ve let my goals become my goal, instead of my goal. In short, i let goals keep me from my goals. I make goals to accomplish a bigger goal, but get so focused on the smaller goal, that i lose sight of what the big goal is. Let me give you an example. And I get upset.

mmmookie: August 2011

Thoughts and ramblings from one messed up missionary. Thursday, August 18, 2011. Lessons from a lost dog: The state of the lost. Some people may not like the term “Lost” when referring to non-Christians. It seems so archaic and offensive. It is implying there is something wrong with them, that they need to be found. But this is how Jesus referred to them, because it is indeed their state. There is something wrong, they need to be found. See, my puppy didn’t realize she was lost either. My dog was happy t...
