Just when I boast about making good on posting in the month I let almost the entire month go by without posting.
Well after much thought and consideration I've decided to keep on track and head for Southeastern in the fall. After thinking about it for awhile the amount of money that church would probably be able to pay me wouldn't be enough to support and I would get burned out early I feel my best course is to remain on track for seminary.
I've been working hard at the Slab recently got a raise so things are going well. Somtimes I feel like thats all I have time for is work, eat, and sleep. There are some days where I find myself wishing I was back at CNC just living the life of a college student...
well enough longing for what has already passed. I'm looking forward to the release of the Da Vinci Code. I've yet to read the book and I need to. Its just one of the those things that I think every christian should be aware of and know about.
Grace and Peace <><
This Blog will be my personal monologue of my thoughts feelings and experiences whenever the inspiration strikes feel free to join in on the conversation. Little bit about me, my name is Jared Lucas and I'm a 29 year old graduate of Carson-Newman College. I currently reside in West Columbia, SC with my wife Katie. I am in my last year of my MDIV in Christian Ministry at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, NC.

Another Year Older
As I write this it is now 20 minutes til I'm officially 24 and another year older and wiser. I must say that my theory is continue to play out as true.
That theory is this: Once you get past the ages of 16, 18, and 21 there are pretty much no more milestone birthdays I would say until the traditional 40th Birthday. I'm not saying that today is just another day. It gives me a chance to reflect on where I am and where I've come from.
One example would be that this time last year I couldn't say that I have a college degree. So I guess you can count that as something significant.
Last night was a wild night...considering the weather we had. I felt like I was at Boomsday and I was sitting right under the bridge with all the Lightning from the storms last night. I can always enjoy a good and strong Thunderstorm. But there is something about when they occur at night that just unerves me.
well I guess that's enough. Wow I've been on a roll for the month of April I'm 2 for 3 on posting in the current month.
*chuckle chuckle*

Such Power
There are such things that demonstrate power an example of that would be my experience yesterday at Coal Creek Armory. I felt the power of both a .357 and a .45 hand-guns.
Then there is the ultimate power that is the power of God to work in a person's life when you think you've got everything planned/figured out God surprises you with the opportunity to serve way before the time that you had planned on serving him. Just goes to show ya that God knows best when it comes to your life.
I attended church this morning and the sermon spoke volumes to me. One of the words was about hypocrisy. That one should be able to say in public what they say in private. It was out of the book of Malachai. Intertresting note about this minor prophet that we are not sure of his name simply meaning that the word Malachai is hebrew "My Messenger"
