Faith of a Child

God is working.

(I started writing this a couple weeks ago.)

This morning in Church while I worshiping I noticed the little girl (she's about 2, I think). She was smiling and happy. I thought how simple her world is, she understands that she is safe because her parents will protect her. In church she understands that there are good people, because she can tell that from the body language of my parents. She trusts them completely.
I felt like God said that I need to trust Him completely, like she trusts her parents. Not because of what He has done or will do but because of who He is.
"I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11
--current writing--
anyway to wrap up my old thoughts. God deserves our complete trust, because He is amazing.

Hello World

So I couldn't decide on the title for my first post, I debated between "Hello World" and "DON'T PANIC." Hello world was what came to mind first which is why it's the title. (also props to people who get the references, especially don't panic)

Anyway I suppose I should say something about me and why I have finally decided to get a blog.

I have been thinking about getting a blog for awhile, but I wasn't sure what I would blog about. One of my friends suggested that I blog about my study abroad trip next semester. That really is the "straw" that broke the camel's back. I'll probably end up blogging about all kinds of things, after I get back. I think mostly it will be what I'm passionate about, which mainly is God and computers (there will probably be other topics) but at this time I expect most posts will be in one of those two categories.

So for the next three months most posts will be about my travels, I'll be in China, Japan, Australia, New Zealand , and Hawaii. I'll try to link in pictures and stuff.

you know I should probably come up with should clever and witty way to end my post but I can't think of one, so I'll end with this quote
"There is hope for the future because God has a sense of humor and we are funny to God." Bill Cosby

Goodbye World (at least till my next post)
