During my many searches for new christian music to replace my old music I started to listen and respect Tree63 and on Sept 8th they will make an appearance here in Salt Lake. It has been a long time for a concert and I look forward to attending this one. I've even invited some of my old concert friends to attend this new way of music for me and hope it will elevate them into bringing God closer to them.

Struggles Continue But God Smoothes It Out
Yea, the struggles continue and no one said it would be a bowl of cherries. The ups and downs of the depression can some time really take a toll on ones soul, heart, thinking, mental and physical capabilities. But yet I still haven't walked away from our Lord. Yea, I've had my doubts and feeling misled, but these were not from Him but only that ugly demon who continues to try us all at sometime or another.
The work with Frank and his eBay company has been great and I still continue on with it. He and his family have been very loving, caring and understanding individuals and I truly love them for this. This has been my longest job in over 5 years now and it is just awesome.
I will still try once again to keep this blog updated more along with my learning of our great LORD.
My video today is not music but one from K2 The Church and Andy Marshall who has really helped show me the right path and this video hits exactly what is going through my head. WORRY!

Still At It
Well it has been a long, long time since my last post and a ton has happened. I've been still working doing research and listings for a freight salvage company on eBay. This has kept me very busy for the last few months. I've also been having quite a battle with the diabetes, going in and out of the hospital with seizures about once a week for the past 2 months. God still continues to be my main stay in life. I'm working on a new website for Christians here in Utah to get together and enjoy outdoor recreation and share their views on Christ.The format will be similar to My Space, where individuals can share videos, audio and photos. It will also have blog capabilities.
A young kid at K2 The Church was featured in the Salt Lake Tribune. Andy is a awesome musician, and I foresee him going along ways with the God given talent. Here is a video of Andy.
Once again I will try to be more consistant at this blog.

The Battle
Yea, been a few weeks here of just fighting it out. No, that evil person isn't winning, it is, and always will be, Jesus! This battle of depression has gotten me down for a few days, but will not overcome the power of our Lord.
Back to James, this book is just awesome. The bible study I'm in wanted me to read straight through it, then go back for the studies. Well heck, I couldn't make it within 4 days. I kept on stopping and reflecting every couple of verses. Oh yea, it is powerful (or is it He is powerful).
This weekend is going to be great! Can you believe that this guy gave His blood for us?
I had a discussion last night with this girl who said, "Yea, I'm going to heaven because I've been good." When I explained to her how and why, she just was awed. She thanked me for bringing this to light and said, "Its time for me to get back with my friend." Oh YEA!
Have you hugged Jesus today?
It has been a couple weeks of NCAA basketball and everyone was yelling, clapping, raising there arms with great joy. Well, I was doing this, and our team kept on getting stronger. Every time we hit the floor, the opponent took off running for the door. Oh by the way, that photo is of Steele Croswhite, a real huge fan of the team.
Well its baseball time and last Sunday our Pastor, Dave, was just blessed with a real powerful hit. "Rock Bands and Rasin' Hands" just made everyone want to get up a yell for their favorite. This lady setting a couple of seats over, just reached over and grabbed and said, "Woooo, this is just awesome!" It was her first time at K2 and I'm sure she'll be back with others.
Well haven't gave out a tune for awhile so here it goes. It goes out to a real tough player in the Word. Mike, just came out of surgery yesterday from a ripped Achilles tendon. Yea, he's not the real singer here, but they really did a great job of putting this video together. YouTube's download leaves some to desire, because of the sync, but David Crowder thought it was good enough to put it up during one of their gigs on the big screen.

Still Working At It
Yea, its been a while since my last post and it has been a tough one. I've really been battling depression the last few days and today was one of the few that I could actually crawl out of bed. The last few days I've just been sleeping. Last night I made it out for a bible study that I began on the book of James. This in itself was God's way of re-establishing himself into the light and it made me feel better.
Since moving from the streets my life has been on a fast and rapid pace, which I'm not use to. It really was such a shock to my system. The first few weeks was like riding on a cloud then it burst and all things came tumbling down around me. The responsablities and trying to adjust to life of having a roof over my head started to present challenges I wasn't ready to handle, but today I've begun to struggle forward and most importantly getting back to God and not just doing the old pitty party routine.
I'll be working on journaling more here and hope to hear more from everyone out there.

The Faith and Love
Well some good news earlier about our friend Micha. He has been extended his stay with us all, and a new liver is on its way for a transplant late last night. It really goes to show us all that through strong faith and prayer that miracles do happen.
I got a few photos recently of the Valentines dinner that was served for the homeless women here in Salt Lake City. 
It sure was great to see the smiles on the 30 plus women that night and for the prayers that were given. It was an awesome evening.

Grace With Confusion
Well yea, I'm running around and still confused. Not homeless anymore just a whole different life. Not use ta the people coming up and say "Hi". Oh well just Love It.
I went to what they call the "Crash Course" (Crash=Rhinoceros) it's going to be fast and furious. The fire has just got a flicker of what will BE! Hey, He is Great and those of us who serve Him have only just begun. I can't imagine what will happen in the next few weeks.
Have you ever just imagined like the old school of John Lennon?
Hey, that was good, but did he ever realize what the imagination was all about?
I'm not trying to tell you all that it's just peaches and cream, or a bowl of cherries.
No!
But this cool wave is just rolling and I pray that those on the street tonight will remain warm and nourished by through the works of God.
Just got an email from a house of God I once attended, and a friend name Micha is not doing well. You see, he had a organ transplant just about a year ago and, well, he has really touched many people out here, including me. Please pray for our brother Micah.
The email.
Dear Saints,
This email comes with a heavy heart. It's about 3 PM on Friday and Jeanne McInroy just sent this to me concerning our dear friend Micah Coleman -- a friend and member of The Rock Church for years -- who underwent a liver transplant a little over a year ago. As you may know, he has been in and out of the hospital since that time. He's not doing well. His faith may become sight today.
From Jeanne:
"Please pray...I just got a phone call informing me that our dear Micah's lungs are filling with fluid faster than the doctors can pump it out. He has only hours, if not just minutes, left to live. Pray for peace and comfort for Micah as God takes him home. Pray also for Becky, Micah's mom, and his grandfather, that they would feel the arms of the Almighty envelop them as they say good-bye to their precious son and grandson."
Even if you don't know Micah, you need to see a bit of his heart and love for God. I found this post from Micah on his blog dated Jan 4, 2007 (MicahC4JC.blogspot.com):
============
The cool thing about all of this unknown when it comes to numbers, and strength, and transplant concerns. I still know that God is in control of it all. Some might be quick to think that God doesn't care, or he should have fixed it by now. But God has not abandoned me, He is not slow. If the miracle comes to fast I might not recognize it, if it comes to quick I might not appreciate it. Is that the reason behind all this time and sand? The promise land is just ahead, around the next corner. If I give up the fight now I and turn bitter and turn on God because it the easy thing, I might never see how close I really was from being out this. Two weeks turns into 40 years.
Job 1:20-22
“At this, Job got up and tore his robe and shaved his head. Then he fell to the ground in worship and said: “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I shall depart. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised.” In all this, Job did not sin by charging God with wrongdoing.”
All things work together for God’s glory!
As for me and my house: “We will serve the LORD our God and obey Him.”
============
Amen! Please pray.
Sincerely,
Bill
As it says in Psalm 145:3-5 "Great is the Lord! He is most worthy of praise. No one can measure his greatness. Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts; let them proclaim your power. I will meditate on your majestic glorious spender and your wonderful miracles." He is just Matchless.
The confusion will always be there, but the love I now feel is just so great.
