...because it's stuffy in here and he can't breath.
In all seriousness, I have a lot of plans to be on HW, like getting back in to my sub-forum, and some secret project ideas (I see you trembling in fear, Seer) that I can't talk about, and stuff.
But I have a ton of things eating up my time. School is about to start. I've got a new job at a restaurant that opens tomorrow. The valley is full of smoke and I can't breath (Seriously. It's not fun.). I'm in an evangelism/ministry/play/drama/theater-thing and it's showing the weekend after next. To top it all off, I need to pray more, study my Bible more, and do some work on a few relationships in my life.
Actually, this is really an explanation of why I haven't been on lately. Although that's also not entirely accurate since my activity has been sporadic at best in this year and the previous.
In any event, I do plan on being back sometime in September when all this cools down and I can get into some sort of a rhythm.
I could use some prayer from everyone. God keeps throwing me curve-balls, but this isn't batting practice anymore, it's the first inning. I'm starting some new things in my life and trying to put some old things to rest. I literally feel like there's a new person invading my mind and heart. Sometimes it's nice and sometimes it's painful 'cause the old person is being scrapped out with a surgical knife.
I need some time to collect my thoughts, get to know the new, hopefully more mature me, recover my health, and finish off some of my obligations.
Then I'll be back, hopefully with energy and ideas and ready to swim laps instead of stand on the sidelines. (Swimming, incidentally, is a hobby I'm taking up. Another time killer, I'm afraid, but it's also good for my asthma.)
I may lurk here infrequently (like usual) but don't expect me to post.
See you at the end of the tunnel, assuming that's daylight and not the headlamp of an oncoming train.
In Christ,
and Prayerfully,
Yours Almost Always,
Jordan

I am Ebed Eleutheros, redeemed from slavery in sin to the bond-service of my Master, Jesus Christ.
Redemption is to be purchased, to have a price paid. So I was redeemed from my master sin, and from justice, which demanded my death. For He paid the price of sin by becoming sin, and met the demands of justice by dying for us.
For all men have a master. But a man cannot have two masters. For he will love one and hate the other. You cannot serve God and sin. So I die to the old, as He died, and I am resurrected to the new, as He was resurrected.
Note: Ebed is Hebrew for bondsman, Eleutheros is Greek for unrestrained (not a slave).
