Doin' stuff

Well, today I preached my second and last sermon of the summer at my home church.  It was on worship (like my first blog, which was actually a session for me to get some thoughts for my sermon).  I thought it went pretty well, seemed pretty well received I guess.  It was fun, I'm still wondering about whether a pastoral role is in my future, and what that would look like.  I guess we will see where God takes me.  So it was pretty good, I definitely felt God's hand in all of it, which was nice. 
Watchin' the closing ceremony for the Olympics, John Lennon is singing in his past self.  Cool stuff.
So, today I got my cycle ready for the trip out to Virginia, fastened my GPS mount to the fairing so I doesn't get lost and fastened a cup holder on as well, so I can drink my booze.  Well, actually it will be water or pop or something, nothin' illegal.  This will be my first time driving more than a hundred miles, but I am splittin' it into two days, stopping at my second cousins in Ohio, so 6 hours each day.  Also my first time driving by myself, it will be awesome.  And I will drive through the mountains, so I am excited for that. 
I also really should have been more strict in my running and working out for the soccer season.  I did a couple sprint workouts last week (for the first time this summer, I might add) and man I should have started doing those earlier.  I am gonna struggle a bit for this first week.  But I did run a 5:43 mile once this summer, and I am going to time once this week.  I have run a lot more than ever before, but I haven't done all the different types of running that I should have.  Anyway, this soccer season is going to be better than both Hesston seasons, I am sure.  Just because of the people I think, and not being a captain, and playing on a good field, and being around family who will come watch me play.  It's going to be awesome.  I am hoping I play.
So that's all I got for today.  Not much deep content here.  But I preached this morning.
I will say that I am done interning at the church now, seeing as I am leaving Friday.  It was a very great summer and I am extremely blessed to have that opportunity.  I definitely got some direction for my life, which is saying that I am not quite sure if I do see a pastoral role in my future.  But I know that God has me doing ministry, I just don't quite know what that will look like at the moment.  But He is in control of my life and will let me know when the time is right.
Also, I am changing to a Business Administration major I think, maybe a business minor and keep my ministry major, that will be decided tomorrow.  The reasoning behind this is that I already have my associates in Youth Ministry, so I can really get any youth ministry job that I want, and if I take Bible classes now they may very likely get repeated if I ever go to seminary.  And if I don't go to seminary to be a pastor, then I will need some other base to start my life after that on. 
Yup yup. Life is happenin', and I like it.  God is good, God is good.
In other news, I posted a picture of the Wiener Mobile that I saw once, I guess the driver of that mobile could have been Mitt Romney's new Vice Presidential Candidate, Paul Ryan.  Check it. http://cnn.com/video/#/video/politics/2012/08/11/sot-paul-ryan-on-weinermobile.cnn

Also, here is a picture of my motorcycle that I am soon to drive to Virginia for my college life.

Make it a good day.
