Pursuit of Happyness

Tuesday, December 26, 2006
Another great movie, and a memorable Christmas. Full of food and movie, and friends. Which have become family to me.

The movie has me thinking alot. Which is good. I have seen some very good flicks this past week. Tomorrow is the last day of it. I wished it were longer. But it is not. But 06 is coming to a close, what will 07 bring?

2006 was the year of relationships, will 2007 be the year of coming to the cross? Loosing myself?

"The old cross is a symbol of death. It stands for the abrupt, violent end of a human being. The man in Roman times who took up his cross and started down the road had already said good-bye to his friends. He was not coming back. He was going out to have it ended. The cross made no compromise, modified nothing, spared nothing, it slew all of the man, completely and for good. It did not try to keep onb good terms with its victim. It struck cruel and hard, and when it had finished its work, the man was no more." A.W. Tozer, the Best of.

Great quote! I'm glad you had a good Christmas.

Have you been going to the night service? Haven't seen you in awhile, but I've mostly been going in the mornings. I may return to the evening service this week ...

    Thy way, not mine, O lord


    Thy way, not mine, O Lord,
    However dark it be;
    Lead me by Thine own hand,
    Choose out the path for me.

    Smooth let it be or rough,
    It will be still the best;
    Winding or straight, it leads
    Right onward to Thy rest.

    I dare not choose my lot;
    I would not, if I might;
    Choose Thou for me, my God,
    So I shall walk aright.

    Take Thou my cup, and it
    With joy or sorrow fill,
    As best to Thee may seem;
    Choose Thou my good and ill.

    Choose Thou for me my friends,
    My sickness or my health;
    Choose Thou my cares for me
    My poverty or wealth.

    The kingdom that I seek
    Is Thine: so let the way
    That leads to it be Thine,
    Else I must surely stray.

    Not mine, not mine the choice
    In things or great or small;
    Be Thou my Guide, my Strength
    My Wisdom, and my All.

    ~Horatius Bonar
