Proper Use of Altars

And the LORD said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: You are witnesses that I have spoken to you from heaven. Remember, you must not make or worship idols of silver or gold.

“The altars you make for me must be simple altars of earth. Offer on such altars your sacrifices to me–your burnt offerings and peace offerings, your sheep and goats and your cattle. Build altars in the places where I remind you who I am, and I will come and bless you there. If you build altars from stone, use only uncut stones. Do not chip or shape the stones with a tool, for that would make them unfit for holy use. And you may not approach my altar by steps. If you do, someone might look up under the skirts of your clothing and see your nakedness.

Exodus 20:22-26

This is a story about a girl named Lucky…

Early morning, she wakes up
Knock, knock, knock on the door
It’s time for makeup, perfect smile
It’s you they’re all waiting for
They go…
“Isn’t she lovely, this Hollywood girl?”
And they say…

She’s so lucky, she’s a star
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking
If there’s nothing missing in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?

Lost in an image, in a dream
But there’s no one there to wake her up
And the world is spinning, and she keeps on winning
But tell me what happens when it stops?
They go…
“Isn’t she lovely, this Hollywood girl?”
And they say…

She’s so lucky, she’s a star
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking
If there’s nothing missing in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?

“Best actress, and the winner is…Lucky!”
“I’m Roger Johnson for Pop News standing outside the arena waiting for Lucky”
“Oh my god…here she comes!”

Isn’t she lucky, this Hollywood girl?
She is so lucky, but why does she cry?
If there’s nothing missing in her life
Why do tears come at night?

She’s so lucky, she’s a star
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking
If there’s nothing missing in my life
Then why do these tears come at night?

Cranking it up…

I don’t think I’ve ever done so much “studying” in my life (attempts at studying). Most of yesterday and today were spent at SLC and DC and rez…I guess I have Chris to thank for putting things into perspective. In a way, I believe he’s a bit too hard-core (for me), but I really admire how he puts his heart into studying.

This past week has really been lacking in fun, and I felt a need to kick back (despite having 2 midterms this week)…so clara, kat and i decided to watch a movie after studyin all of saturday…it seemed like a well-deserved break.

So, Chris wanted to check out my notes on a few lectures to see if I could clear some things up…I told him I was leaving SLC at 8…when he found out I was leaving to watch a movie, he was like “Oh, are you SERIOUS? I think you should really reconsider. Do you think that 2 hours is going to help you do better on your midterm? DO you think that your mark will improve by watching a movie?”

I explained how I was in desperate need of a break…of some fun. But as Chris said “Oh, you’ll get used to it.” (not being able to have fun..)

He then proceeded to share his thoughts to Clara and Kat. I guess you really had to be there, but it was one of those moments. You can’t really tell how you feel. hm.

(clara hid behind me. teehee)

So we didn’t watch a movie. We did get frozen yogurt at TCBY…but the waffle cone tasted like “paper” and the strawberry flavour really had no taste. And they didn’t even give us SPRINKLES! But I’m not bitter… I had fun…

Oh baby, this is the life.

Would anyone like to learn about the determinants of Health?

Read the Bible in a Year…

I’m going to do it this time…Please poke/prod/remind gently.. =)

“Who makes mouths?” the LORD asked him. “Who makes people so they can speak or not speak, hear or not hear, see or not see? Is it not I, the LORD? Now go, and do as I have told you. I will help you speak well, and I will tell you what to say.”

Exodus 4:12

This verse jumped out at me yesterday…Just like Moses, I often shy away from doing what He wants me to do. I make excuses like “I can’t do it…I’m too unskilled…There are people who are better suited for the job…” But just like God reassures Moses, He reassures me that me that whatever I do, He’ll give me the strength and whatever else required to accomplish the task. (8) Whom shall I fear? I am Yours…

The LORD is my light and my salvation-whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life-of whom shall I be afraid?

Psalm 27:1
