…I just need some place where I can lay my head. Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed? He just grinned and shook my hand, and no!, was all he said…” -The Weight. The Band. 1968-1975.
Well my friends, here I am again…
I just wanted to let you know a little bit, more of what’s going on in the world of Mahutaville… I’ve been sleep deprived (Doctor’s orders) got an EEG, (Brain Scan) blood work and on top of all that I have to go have an MRI in about an hour and a half. Needless to say its been an unpleasant week but, God is good. So, I don’t worry so much. I will be home in Plattsburgh this weekend. I do have a lot of spanish homework to do but, beyond that not too, too much. If anyone wants to hang out give me a call. I’ll be at my house. When I get the chance, I will actually let you in on all the gory details of these past weeks…I’ve just been overwelmed in unglory and glory too, just not as much as usual. Oh well, I’ll be in Plattsburgh tonight. Oh FYI: It’s Michael’s birthday today to0. (He’s 20).
Be good.

Well my friends, I still ask you to keep me in prayer and if you could fast at least one day for me. I would appreciate it more than tongue can tell. I tell you wot though, I have been having such a peace on this matter of which I am asking you to pray about but, still I ask you for continued prayer. Trust me I need it.
Psalms 29:10-12
The LORD sat enthroned at the Flood,
And the LORD sits as King forever.
The LORD will give strength to His people;
The LORD will bless His people with peace.
I first want to warn you if this is your first time reading my blogg. I am going to be very serious for this post. So if you don’t like it. Come back in a week. Now that, that has been said…I am asking everyone who reads my blogg to go on a fast for one day (If you want to go till saturday for me.) I am about to do some very serious things in my life in the next three days. The best way in seeking the Lord in serious matters is through: Prayer and Fasting. There are few times in my life where I have ever fasted and I know that now I am asking: friends, fam and complete strangers to do this for me. Please pray for wisdom, strength and disernment for me. This is the only way I will be able to make it through.
I don’t know when the next time I will be posting, It may be tommorow or next Monday. Just please keep me in prayer. Thank you.
That’s right my fellow partakers in the sacred art of blogging…I have done it. I went to the Doctor’s. After almost a decade, Rachael finally convinced me (Maybe not so much Rachael asking me but, the idea not being there for her convinced me.) to go see a Doctor. I was refered to a Neurologist (I think that’s how you spell it?) and my appointment is being set as of right now, I’ll check my machine tonight when I get home to see when I have to go in. You know, I thought I would feel a lot of anxiety but, I really didn’t; It felt as a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. Not that I was promised any kind of treatment from my symptoms but, the idea that I might be able to (I am trying not to get my hopes up) get “normal”. God has always seen me through so I press on.

Woo! That’s right people. I have fourty minutes of unsolicited, totally free time. *And the Blogger dieties rejoice* That’s right I am back in the fold, and I would like to first apologize for the past crappy entries, I know they are not up to “Mahutaville” standards. You know, lacking in the Glory. I digress…Oh me oh my, I don’t know where to begin except at the feet of Jesus. Since school has started I have been up to my ears in sleep deprivation, homework and too much time away from the women and friends that I hold dear. I have to tell you faithful readers, your author here has been just struggling in everything including his faith. I have had such a burden with so many outside things just hit me left and right. Expenses, long hours and just mindless unglory like you would not believe. I just had a mindset for the past few weeks that is unbefittingly unglorious. But, luckily I got some advice from a fellow partaker in the tribulations, a member of the fold and my webmaster, Jay. He told me three simple things.
1. Leave it to Jesus.
2. Don’t worry (much like the first but, still it was nice to hear.)
3. Peace.
Peace. I know, I’ve been a Christian a long time but, we all sometimes just need to hear it that God really does give you rest for your weary soul. So this is what I did, prayed for peace, and Good Lord, Glory did I get it!
Psalms 29:12-12 (NIV)
“The LORD sits enthroned over the flood;
the LORD is enthroned as King forever.
The LORD gives strength to his people;
the LORD blesses his people with peace.”
So if you need peace, its just a prayer away.

If you have never seen it, go buy it…It’s that good. That being said there is not too much going on right now. I have had maybe 2.5-3hrs. of sleep to work on today. I’ve been in the library for the past two hours studying for my next class and am just about ready to go run down to Dutch Quad for some eats. God is good and after a long discussion with my better half I within this month, I think will go to the Doctor’s and try to remedy my childhood indescressions. God is good though and His mercy has again shown me the light of another day…
I will start to write more meaningfull things, maybe tonight if I get my homework done.
Ciao
