It is done!!!!

Yes after hours of arduous work and many times feeling uturly distrought (notice the big words...uh pretty good eh...) I have finally completed the best on-line game in existance! Yes it is true, I did complete the game Peasant Quest. And I know I know some of you people are thinking, how could he possibly do it. Well to those people I have to say that I just done it. I don't know how, but it be done. So ya I scored 145 out of 150, and am unsure as to why I didn't get the full score. Ah well, maybe next year.

God Rocks!

So schools com'in around the corner, and I was almost to the point where I wasn't going to have enough cash, but luckily I just squeezed it by. I also had noticed that with the current hours that I work I would also be pretty tight on cash flow. The other day comes around and I bought this awesome new songbook by Matt Redman. Anyways I left to go back to work and I realized I had left the book in the cafe. Anyhoo, the Big D (Duncan) was sitting down to eat, and we had a few words and it turns out that he asks me to be his PA (Pastoral Assistant). Immediatly my eyes light up and I said it would be cool but I would have to pray about it. Anyways today we hashed things out and I am now working for Duncan. To top things all of he only needs part-time hours for me, so I'm able to work around school, and still get more hours then I would in the bookstore. YEAH!!!!!!!!!! So anyhoo, its now the dawnting task of training someone to replace me.( By the way, my old boss doesn't even know it yet..)

I just thought it was cool that God could bless me so much, and I know I'm going to learn a lot and have a great time.

Countdown

Yes I know what your all thinking, what could Jon be counting down to. Well, its simple in 9 days it will be the greatest day of the year. The day that I step into adulthood. Also it is the day that we leave for camp. I can't wait. So for all those councilors out there that want some bonus points for there team. Start sucking up now...

Drawing Near

So lately I've really been feeling the need to get closer with God. Over the past 2 months its really been high on the to do list. In one of those close moments with God I wrote this song.

Closer
Jon Long


I wanna get closer to you,

I wanna flyer higher to you,

I wanna, climb right into your arms.


I wanna be closer with you,

I wanna know more about you,

I wanna be right by your side.

(Chorus)


Jesus, the one from above, get me closer to you….

Jesus, my one true love, I wanna be closer to you…. (x2)


When I’m, closer to you I feel like new

When I’m closer to you I’m alive.

When I’m near you, oh how I love you,

Without you I can’t survive

(Bridge)


I love you, I need you, I want more of you…

I pray for more of you fill up some more…

So anyways this has been a thing on my heart for such a long time and I thought I'd share it with you...

WOW!!!

I don't know about you, but I thought yesterday was one of the better services that we have had in a while. From the whole DJ thing to start, to the very end of ministry....WOW...

I thought is was really cool to get JPUDDY up there and playin his DJ styl'ins. Also Gaza, JP, Marcel, Kenny, Laura, and Tyler did an awesome job at worship. I am quite enjoying this new system. Whorship has been taken to the next level, or maybe it even skipped a couple. The message was also really good I thought, thanks to Julie... I think it really touched a lot of people.

If it keeps going like this were gonna have to find a new building soon.... God just keeps coming and uping the anti, and I know its going to just take off real soon.....

Still all I can say is WOW......

THE BJ SAGA

So for those of you who don't know BJ stands for Brian Johnson (PK- Bill Johnson) . Anyways he is my hero except he doesn't like me, and yet somehow doesn't know who I am. It all started one fine Friday afternoon who I (PK- Steve Long) received an e-mail from Bill Fish (PK- Bill and Melinda Fish), saying that Brian had talked to him and that he was displeased with the sound clips that were placed on the internet(by me). Anyways I quickly checked it out and it turns out that it did sound very wonkie. So I took the clips off the web, and will return to the task later. Fast forward two weeks to today, and guess who gave me a call.... Yes it was BJ. He had left a message saying that he would like the web stuff changed and that he would like his order of CD's.

I find this very amusing that even though he has no idea who does the web stuff, that he got a hold of me. Also the bookstore isn't doing his CD order, it is being done by media. Anyways, I just though it was quite funny how my hero is mad at me, and yet doesn't know who he is mad at.

Ah well

It's that time again...

So today was the day that I choose my courses for College. They all seem quite easy and hopefully they will keep me interested. The best part about it all is that I have only 1 long day( by long I mean 4 hours). The rest of the week I am only have either the whole day off or a 2 hour class. This next semester will be a breeze....

I'll keep you updated...
