Famine 09

First off , I just want to say to Matt that I tried to do a much different title then you did! haha

But anyways here we go. Well this was my first famine to go to since I finally moved up to the Youth back in September. So from hearing about it on Wendesday Night , and hearing all the details , I thought the whole time would be torture! I thought I would be starving , crankey , miserable , tired , and Yeah!


Well of course half of that I was! Especially the tired part , which Im sure we all were and still are! Although that coffee did help and Im sure Mrs. Charmaine regreted letting me near that! But anyways besides all that , I have actually learned some stuff that is really sticking to my mind which most stuff that I learn doesnt. j/k.

The first thing is that the book of Psalms is a really cool book. And like John Duncan said , Its basically a book of poetry or whatever , and i dont like poetry , but this book really sticks out. I learned this from the quiet time that we had today. Which I assumed that I would just sit there and text or be bored. But I learned also that I should have more quiet time. So the thing I learned from this is that God can speak to you in wierd ways!

I mean Ive always herd that "Oh , God can speak to you in mysteriouse ways" , or "God works in mysteriouse ways"but I guess I finally really actually knows how that is. I mean ofcourse the Bible will say stuff to you. But I truthfully never , have a quiet time at home. So thats how this is a big shock to me , even though as a Christian I should already know this. I actually feel really bad now because Im just now figuring this out for myself. But anyways let me say real quick. Psalms 40:30 - (I forgot what I stopped at) really reminded me of times and troubles that I have had in the past.


Also I have learned that for me not eating for 30 hours will mess up your appitite!


So anyways , here are some pics that Mrs. Charmaine took , not me with my camera because hers batery died. So I thought I would post them up here!





Anyways I think this is the longest post I have ever done. Since I am not that good with blogging.

  1. Good post, Chris. This reminded me of when I first started reading the Bible way back in my early high school years. My mom took me out to a Christian bookstore and bought me this big, blue NIV study Bible. I jumped right in and started reading it every day. You will be surprised what you find in there, and what you learn by reading that book. It's good to get in the habit early so you can learn about God's nature and His teachings.

  2. But the horable thing is , I should have already known this because I became a Christian when I was 10! And Thanks!
