I just had an incredible weekend. I can remember two times in my past when I have been broken before God. Both times have changed my life. Well, this weekend I experienced my third time of being broken before God. He made me realize that I have been living my life on my own without him. On the outside, i have said that I live for him. BUT, I realized this weekend that I've only been saying that I rely on him, not actually living. I've never really had anything bad happen to me, everything I've tried, i've pretty much succeeded at. I've always been able to do things by myself. Sure there have been little times here and there that I've asked God for help, but i don't live my life in reliance to God. What it comes down to is that I've been believing that I don't need God. I thought that I needed God, but I've not actually believed it. Does this mean that I haven't been a Christian? No, not at all. It just means that I haven't been giving my life to God like He's wanted me to. Anyway, just thought i'd share a little. I love God with all my heart.

Things in Louisville are great. I really like it here. I don't know if I've said that yet or not. The church is awesome. Some exciting things are happening. I'm doing more song writing and good things are actually happening with it. It's a humbling thing having songs you've helped write have some success. I still really like to build things. Especially when it comes to guitars and music. Actually, this post is going to be in line with my old posts. Guitars, Cars, and Computers. First, i've "built" a guitar. I bought parts and put it together. It's pretty sweet. (Telecaster knock off for anyone who cares.) I've also made some attempts at building pedals with minimal success (actually no success. they only look like pedals). I did order a new one to try today. I hope it works. Also, I've been building loops and recording songs and such. I'm going to update my myspace before too long. And my car, well it's running just fine, which is different than the past, but Kari's starter went out today. So I have something to talk about. Well, that's all. I've been playing halo lately. So if anyone wants to join in feel free to give me a call.

Well, Christmas is almost here, and I have a lot of craziness going on. In a period of 6 days or so, I will have been in Louisville, St. Louis, Nashville, Joplin, Denver, and possibly Eldon. I'm looking forward to it, i just need to make sure I get my oil changed before I start all my driving. Anyway, just wanted to say that I can't believe Thanksgiving has come and gone, and that I've been here in Louisville almost seven months. I miss everyone and wish you all a Merry Christmas.

Well,

 

Life is good. I've been getting more busy as time goes by. I'm not too surprised though. If it's not school, i tend to be a workaholic. So I've been playing a lot for the Vine and for the youth services here. I've led for the Saturday night high school service a few times. It's cool, but it's small. I'm gonna lead for the Jr. Wednesday night stuff I think so that will be cool. Next week I'm going to Johnson Bible College to play guitar for something. It's gonna be fun. Then sometime soon I'm going to go down to Nashville to hear the recording and if everything works out right I'm going to stay a couple days down there. Woohoo. I'm going to St. Louis tonight to see Kari. Things are good with her and I. She's a great girl. We get to see each other every couple weeks or so... So that's a good thing. It would be nice if it were more often, but I'm happy for the time I get. Anyway, I'm out.

I've got this sneaking suspicion that people still faithfully (as in at least once a week or so) check their xanga. So, I am making a petition for people to at least do something on it. (Drew, Grant, etc.) Since I don't have very reliable internet access at my house and I can't check myspace at work, I'm stuck in xanga world. So, for those of us who have moved on to a different place. Let us know what's going on once in a while. This is my call out. You can say, but "Luke, you never update." I know, but i've solved the problem. If I'm wanting to know what's up with you, I'll make a new post telling what's up with me. So it can work both ways. Ummmm yeah.
