Good evening... I've been juggling studies and making new songs for the band... We've gotten a few new tunes. Not as simple as the ones I've started with. Need to start writing new lyrics. :P

I've been reading another book by C.S. Lewis... Its called 'Mere Chrisitianity'. I wouldn't have started reading it if Jolynn hadn't asked me about it. Anyway, I'm constantly impressed by the depth of Lewis' thinking. Many times I've wanted to ponder about these things but I've never been able to focus and get my thoughts straight. My IQ isn't as high as his... Haha.

This is one of the things that I've been reflecting on constantly. As my life returns to 'normal' I find myself drifting? I find myself depending less on Him? I've been asking myself, "Daryl, do you need another crisis? Do you need to be broken again?"
Don't wait for crisis to bring you to your knees. Come to God on your knees. Then when unfortunate things happen, you're already close to Him. Then you won't have to ask where God is when you need Him. But thats not human nature. Human nature forgets God when things are going well. Human nature takes things for granted. Thats what I've been battling with now. I got the quote below from someone I was chatting with on ICQ... Makes me wonder about myself. Isn't my attitude often like that?

I'll go spend time with God now.

::: Quote of the Day :::
"Yes i know, but doing is a different thing."

holding hands
hand holding - you like to be in constant physical
contact with your special someone but you don't
want to take things too quickly.
