Happy New Year – So What ?

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

A little something I wrote three years ago going into 07′.
Thinking Biblically Commentary – January 4, 2007
K. Joel Gilliard
Every year on December 31, great festivals and celebrations around the world are held to ring out the old year and bring in the new year. In fact, starting backwards from December 26th, news broadcasters begin to [...]

Tethered to my desktop and the Sovereignty of God

Monday, June 15th, 2009

Well, it finally happened.
Something went wrong with my MacBook Pro.
Something MAJOR.
But it’s nVida’s fault, not Apple.  Apple is offering replacement repairs for up to 3 years from original purchase date, regardless of if I’m in warranty or not.

Meanwhile, I’ve opened up my MBP, pulled the HD, connected it to my tower via a USB external [...]

Ahhh, the blender again!

Monday, March 16th, 2009

My favorite term for this time in life.
You ever see those scenes where all of the items in the picture get scrambled around blazingly fast, then they stop and settle and the picture looks completely different ?
So…I’m looking for a new church (and no, I’m not getting into the ‘why’ of it just yet….maybe one [...]

I’m now department chair for music, team leader for creative arts and doing a LOT more this year to set good things in motion for my band program and the school in general….including taking over the school website (which I will [...]

[CSF] God the All-Seeing One – 3

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

With a little of the previous post and more added on, here’s Dr. Spurgeon again:
God knows the burial-places of all his people. He notes as well the resting-place of the man who is buried tombless and alone, as the man over whom a mighty mausoleum has been raised. The traveler who fell in the barren [...]

I promise to….

Monday, March 24th, 2008

I promise to update my layout in the coming days. Seriously.
I promise to start posting all the stuff I’ve been putting out over on HCR that may be helpful to other believers who don’t visit message boards, but live off of the blogsphere.
So far, I’ve done posts on exegesis, why Calvin didn’t kill [...]

A simple message….

Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

Be thankful.
Specifically….be thankful to GOD.
Be thankful that you are single and not dealing with a mate who defies you and disagrees with you on every question and turn.
Be thankful you are married and not single, so you have a partner to go through life with.
Be thankful that you don’t have a lot of things so [...]

A Beautiful Surprise….

Sunday, November 27th, 2005

From nowhere
a beautiful surprise
undeserved
unaware
that such a blessing
would be mine
so soon
so fast
God’s Word says
every good and perfect gift
is from the Father above
and
no good thing will He withold
from those who walk uprightly
yet, I look at my enemy
the ‘inna me’
and see that I don’t always
walk upright
so I don’t deserve such a treasure
GRACE is the word…
isn’t it [...]

Kindred spirit…..

Thursday, June 16th, 2005

got inspired tonight.
You opened your heart
I listened
We cried
miles apart
but I felt your pain
I know your mind
we prayed
amazing….
I never knew
how much alike
we were
are
and even more awesome
is the peace
that comes
from prayer
fellowship
and knowing
that you have
a kindred spirit
who prays for your best
and that your heart
would only hurt
for a short time
