Happy B-day Wesly! Au revoir Carolyn!
Carolyn's open house was today. Many of our old friends and relatives came to wish her a safe and prosperous voyage.*Johnny Depp voice*(Pirate!) It was also Wesly's 19th birthday, but because he only felt like sleeping and watching football, and didn't tell me what he wanted to do, we didn't do anything really. Except live.
Excitement is for those who wish and are willing to be excited. It is ten o'clock. I know I should go to bed so I feel ready for church, but, well, I don't know. Life is so pointless when you live selfishly. I am determined to live for God even if it kills (my physical body) me.
Christi said people with problems do either of two things. Either they glaze over their faults and troubles, refusing to see the facts, or they become self centered in themselves, knowing they have problems , but not sure what to do. I wonder. I have problems, I am human. Which do I lean more towards and what can I do? Pray. That is always the answer. Read what Jesus says about your problems.
When I took the Freedom Class, which was wonderful and I am benefiting from God's awesomeness, Barb Vining told me that the sensitiveness I have is a good thing. I have the giftings of an intercessor. I hope. I love praying. Why is it so hard to set aside things of this world and go talk to the Maker of this world?
The song, forgive me the name will come latter," Oh, what peace we often forfeit, oh, what needless pain we bare. All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer." This runs through my head. It is wonderful reminder.
I must go, Carolyn wants the phone.
Au revoir, mon aimes!

Ahhhh......I'm sorry If I've not been myself lately?
I didn't notice that you were wanting to do something for me on my Birthday (and I only watched football because I've gotta learn to interact with other young men better), otherwise I would not have denied that privilage to you. What I mean to say is that I would have been more appreciative and would have allowed you to use your gifts and show your friendship.
I would still love to do something in Honor of my 19th Birthday though. See the thing is that I've never been one who expected anything to happen on his birthday, not only because I make every day that it's responsible to a special day, but because not much would have happened anyway at my house.
I'm sorry for that confusing comment on your last post, I was using far too much figurative language and a few things were inside (well, not jokes, but you know....understandings) jokes that were apparently only picked up by me (the writer)....which is not your fault.
Just in case it's an appropriate time to affirm anything to you....I really am not meaning to be different than normal, if I seem that way. I am glad that I've become a more quiet person who is more cautious of what he says, but I would never want to feel akward talking to you...unless I shouldn't be saying what I am. You're one of my closest friends, and what I meant to say is that in spite of the fact that a lot of responsibility is required to maintain a healthy friendship......I still refuse to let my prudence make you feel like I value other people more than you and that you're unimportant to me.
You are one of the only people that I think has a great approach to understanding and interacting with me. You're a great friend to me....and that is a rare gift that I would never want to take for granted. Not just a good friend in the way I expect, but in ways that I would never be planning on......which is why you're a good one.
I think I'm more of the, gets self-centered on trying to fix their problems and forgetting to be a servant type. See, when I'm serving, God provides the situations required for me to work on my problems. I'm still concerned with fixing myself, but it's then so that I can serve effectively, not feel good about myself, which isn't a good enough motivation.
Anyway, this is crazy long.....mayhap I'll have to start back with e-mail instead.
Nathan Wesly
PS.....what thought you of this?
Hey J! It was great talking to you today, even if it was just a quick "hi!" I've been thinking about you a lot this week and I have something to send you when I find one of those new, pricey stamps. Hope you are well! :)
Love you!
The hymn is What a Friend we Have in Jesus, right? :-)
How's the French coming along?
Nathan, before you start commenting on any blogs I think you should stop and take inventory. If you want to say more than a few things better make it an E-mail unless you are talking to all of us. ;P
That was crazy long....:D
See you later!!
I agree with you....you one.....sorry everybody.
We were about to go do something at the time that I finished my "comment" and I hit submit instead of turning it into an e-mail. It was my laziness.
And Sorry JoyAnna, for putting an e-mail on your blog.....
"Oh Please do forgive me"
You are pardoned. Don't do it again! :)
Mia! I miss you more everyday. I want all my friends to live near me. That will be hard when I move to France right?
I love you all!
P.S. John and Christi found an almost house. Please pray hard. It is on Offet Lake Dr. ten or fifteen minuets away. Yaaaaaay!
Well thank you......I'm writing you an e-mail now.
France?
When.......and seriously.......and do you think you're really supposed to?
Toodles..
I miss you TOO!!! That's way exciting about John and Christi maybe getting a house! Yay! Do you think you and Liz will get the apartment? ;)
And yay for France! Gah, that reminds me, I still have something to send you! I just need to come by a new stamp. :P
I have news about China! I may write it in an email, though because I have much to tell. I don't want to pull a "Wesly." ;)
Hope you're having fun with those crazy Clark boys! :D
Yeah.......best not do that!!
Better watch yourself......I'll be seeing you in person before I leave!
Anyway....sigh....goodness me on my.....sigh......(Luks art ther winder an loangs fur de son)
Translation?
"Looks out the window and longs for the sun"
Duh....or something
I didn't see you all day....sigh
Stop sighing and come visit you weirdo. i'm twenty feet away!!
*puts hands on hips*
Mia, when is a good time to call?
After 6 years you ought to know that I am frightfully less likely to come knock on your door as you are to knock on Aunt Debi's....which I have not in the last 2000 days seen you do.
If you think this is really rediculus and that I should be made to not see anybody if I'm not willing to change than that should be said.......but I am not very confident of asking anything from anybody.
It is no secret that I want to be there.....it is just not my Nature to be bold enough to go.
So......As in years gone by.....I will ask only that you invite me at times which are most convient and approved.
Oh dear. Must I explian this? I'm a girl, you and Steven and Jeremy and Jon are guys. Duh. It would be a little forward of me to go 'visit' the Molby house.
Besides you are on vacation. I don't think I should bug you guys as often as I wish to. Being shut up in a house with three toddlers, one of which is a constant winer, and one which has been sick, does things to my head. I'm craving 'real' social time. I may go crazy or revert back to being three. Somebody please save me!
Ah. I need to post a new somthing-or-other.
Mia, I miss you. I like the new colors on your blog. I cannot think of anything intresting right now. I getcha all later. :)
You guys are ridiculous... that's all I have to say. :P
I miss you too! Call anytime! If I'm busy, just leave a message and I'll call you back when I'm free. :)
It's not the appearence, but rather the intent of our actions that JoyAnna and I guard carefully.....yet it is also important to be concered with how things look to those who can not search our hearts....not to mention to make sure we are actually searching our hearts as we grow or at least change.
Nathan Wesly
PS.....I'm writing you another e-mail of things you already know, but I'll try to be so bold as to at least try and get Jonathan to have me over tomorrow.....but it has been 3 days since I've been invited into your house at all and I am only.....never mind....read the e-mail.
My goodness......why am I up so late?
Best not be posting so much on here for the rest of my visit....that is not what this site is for (sorry) *said in a voice that is sincere, yet refuses to feel truly guilty for doing 'what'*
What ever happened to e-mailing me? If you forgot it's Bunnie707@yahoo.com.
New post soon. I promise.
Thank you Darren for jogging my memory. I love that song. I wish our church sang hynms more oftener. :) Mia, your mom just arrived I am leaving to go greet her. I loves you, Mia
AWWWW!! MOM!!! I want to see her... :(
ya'll need to get a life..... or a job.... or something. I heard a great quote today from a movie that I would not recommend to anyone. Though I'm sure many people think that it is great.....sheesh, it got four golden globe awards or something of that kind of humanly importance. Anyhow the quote goes something like this...
'Every man has to die. But not every man truely lives.'
I misses you Muchly Maria!!!!!
I love that! What movie is it off of?
I have a life. Part of it consists of writing my friends since I cannot see them.
'What be your favorite joke, Captiane?'
