Andy's SpaceWhere I endevour to serve God, Love others, and Make money...In that order!!! March, 2009 Our first rental property... Well, We finally did it. we have put in our first competitive offer on an investment property. I will continue to keep my eyes open for great deals to grow this stream of income into our lives. But for now it is exciting to see what we have accomplished so far. Thank god for Robert Allen and his Multiple Streams course! Thank God for God's Grace and Faithfulness and Love to us. And thank God for the wisdom to see a great opportunity and the courage to act!!! We are moving forward, are you? Andy! August, 2008 Well, It worked...sort of...I think I will continue to try to get this to work. I think the key is in the Html Code. Perhaps if I copy it from here and paste it into the web site directly it will work? let's give that a try. Well...that didn't work either. at this point I don't think My web host will allow video content. that's ok I think what I will do is build a blog for Abby a live space from Microsoft and then I i load the content there. everything will load fine to the blog and everything but video will load to the web site. I hope you all enjoy!!! August, 2008 What is "ME"?Today I was thinking about the traditional trichotomy that is the human self and how it is all about connecting. Connecting to the world arround me, connecting to my-self and the people arround me, and connecting to my God and the spirit arround me.
Body - The body is the physical part of me that is made up of chemical elements. It allows me to connect with the world arround me in a physical sense. It is the part of "me" that is designed to connect with matter in all it's forms weather living or dead weather large or small. This physical body is me and I am this physical body if I don't take care of it I will not be whole. A healthy body is crucial to a whole self.
Soul - The soul is the energy part of me that is made up of electrical impulses in my brain. It is dependant on a healthy body and a helthy spirit for it's survival. This is the part of me that connects with my-self, and with the people I come in contact with. It is the hot bed of my thoughts, desires, and emotions from which all motivation springs . The body is useless without the soul and the soul is useless without the body. They are interdependant.
Spirit - The spirit is the eternal part of me that is made in the image of God. It is the store house for my memories and my personality. This is the part of me that connects with God the devine creator of all things the life force behind all of creation and the infinate knowledge. Through prayer, Study of scriptures, and disciplined living according to the laws of God my spirit can deepen in intimacy with God and enrich the realities of my soul and even my body. By admitting my sinful nature and my dependance on Christ for salvation my spirit which was dead comes to life and I am complete. Body, Soul and Spirit. July, 2008 Read once will read again and soon...I just finished my first reading of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill. Yes! I did say first reading, I will read this book again probably quarterly once I have fully grasped and implemented it's teaching. This is a great resource for disciplining the mind and controlling one's self.
This is a fantastic book. there were a couple of occasions where my traditional Christian values seemed to be under attack specifically the chapters titled "Sex Transmutation" and "The Sixth Sense" but upon a second look into the text I always found that my concerns were in fact unwarranted. In fact scripture explicitly supports much of what he proclaimed to the world and the parts it doesn't explicitly support it is, in my opinion, silent. I am confident, as much as I can be with a BA in Biblical studies and a cursory reading of the book that this is a valuable asset to any one wanting a more successful life.
You can expect to see much more from me on this book!! Click here for a PDF download of the book. July, 2008 A brief introduction.Well, thought that a brief introduction was in order. I like the color blue. I prefer business casual to business as for my normal style. I like to do my own work on my car even if it takes longer and I have to fix it three times instead on once. I love my wife and my daughter and only heaven knows how much. I am getteng better day by day and I will condinue to improve. This is a test of the rss feed for my personal website.Well I have done it I have set up a site that is designed to disclose who I am to the world. I think it is a great Idea. And it drives people here to my blog. I will do my best to keep this one up to date. I have taken multiple stabbs at the blogging thing but all of those times it was purposeless and well annoying. But as I have begun to understand blogging and how it is my voice to the world. I hope to voice thoughts and issues that are helpful to some and life changing to others.
You will find as you read that my interests are quite eclectic and that I am good and getting better at many things. Enjoy as you read.
