I really hope I am posting on to this correctly! Thanks for the commentary today. Great message on what God's desire is (to be glorified)and how we should respond. I always think if I am bold for Christ and do what He says, then my life should be pretty easy. I guess it is the opposite.

My question is, can we say God is a jealous God in the same way we are jealous? -or is he bigger, or different than our definition? It does seem that we are in the "God Show" and His main desire is to be praised. I see why Tim wrote that (scripture). I guess I never think of God in that light.

I have a new prayer request now that B-ball is over. I just started a John study with my next door neighbor. He said he was interested in learning more about God. I just finished going through it myself so I thought it might be a good idea. If anyone has any suggestions for me, please let me know. I have no idea how this is going to turn out. The first week went OK, I think.

The ski trip was great, thanks for the great time.

Yeager,

I hope my reference to you in regards to revenge wasn't taken the wrong way...It was tongue and cheek at the time. I think I speak for most of the coolguys when I say that I admire your past impulse for justice. In that way, you were onto the right thing when you pissed all over Doug's clothes. The impulse is right. Hate evil. Demand justice. Get revenge. But as you correctly point out, it is an incomplete form of it.
