Ryan and Randomness

June 23, 2009

I’m going to warn you.   This one is going to be wierd.  First off, I’ve been up since 4 this morning.  I was filling in for our morning host at WEEC.  Secondly, I haven’t eaten since Sunday night and am not planning too until Friday noon.   That needs a little explanation.  I am participating in a biggest loser competition at work and I’m winning by about 4 pounds.  I know that one of my cheif competitors is not eating this week in an attempt to catch me.  Therefore I feel I must do the same to hold serve.  I am consuming calories in the form of drinks.  Lately I’ve been on a Kefir kick.  Kefir is a drinkable yogurt that I’ve been brewing with kefir grains or cultures.  So, I have kefir for breakfast, a slimfast shake for lunch and kefir for supper.  Here is a picture of Kefir grains, if  anyone wants some to try to make their own, I have extras.kefir8

Doesn’t that look appetizing.  So I’m tired and hungry.  Very hungry.  I was talking about liver and onions with desire.  That’s hungry.

To finish this off randomly, we just finished City Challenge with our Youth Group last week.  While there, during a worship time in we were supposed to worship with out singing, I wrote  a poem.  Baring my soul, here it is.

Pride can fill my heart

Selfish desires consume

Christ still died for me

Me, inadequate

I’m mediocre at best

Christ still died for me

Love is hard to find

In my depths for others

Christ still died for me

Evil plagues my mind

My thoughts are hard to subdue

Christ still died for me

Saved, redeemed, and bought

Although a sinner I am

Christ is all I need

Christ still died for me

We’ll have another post soon about Kalvary’s 5th birthday… I promise.

Glory is three (and has been for quite some time now)

Glory turned three on May 23.  We’re finally showing you now.

This was her first “cake” on the actual day of her birth.

This was her specially ordered “pink cake.”  (Can you find the hidden candles?)
