people!!!! well...yah, i know...it still takes me forever to get around to posting something new on this site. so...here i am finally writing somethin else...because i know everyone is just...(sarcasm) DYING (sarcasm) to read more about this dude named Nathan Tindall...so im just here to put you out of your misery. wow...i am using some pretty stupide humor. well...hmmm.whats bin going on lately here.....HURRICANE!!!!!!! the rain and wind was sooo EXTREMELY awesome!!!a blessing from God for our area...but alos keep others in your prayer that are going thru some rough times with this whole storm. we're all blessed by God...we just have to keep that in mind thru rough times. God's always watching out for us...maybe not always in the way we think He should....or ought to...but that's foolish to try and shove our plan in front of God...when He is the One who always has the best plan...ALWAYS. God is awesome isn't He? the wind was so beautiful. i was walking outside during the storm when it was raining and so extremely windy. it was awesome...truly awesome. well...life has been pretty good lately. God is beautiful as always and so is life. so here's some stuff thats been goin on lately...my brother Ben got a job in Irving TX. he's working for a frickin congressman.YAH!!!!! call my brother up...he's got some rawkin connections. its getting closer to my brother Alex's wedding...im EXCITED!!! november 11th. its close..and it's gonna be too awesome. just mom n dad n I at the house now. it's good. i mean i love having my brother Ben here...but it's good just getting to be mom n dad n I. last year here...so it'll be good spending the last bit of time before graduation with my mom n pappy. dang...please tell me if these posts are getting just extremely boring. i bet they are since i dont write too often on here...so its just a huge ol update on my life. ok well...for some last words...has anyone seen this movie "saved"? it is seriously interesting. it just deals with a whole lot of controversial issues. i dont agree with basically all the stuff in the movie because it has to do a whole lot with Christians being tolerant of things that are totally against what God wants and commands us. it makes it out like homosexuality is alright...like it's ok with God for someone to be gay. God still loves gay people...but their sin is totally despised and hated by God...He is still so full of love but also full of sadness because of this abomination. wow...i know im getting off of the whole "whats been going on today around here" subject...but its really an interesting movie...just dealing with a lot of hypocrisy and tolerance and lotsa controversial issues dealing with Christians. well...yalll can stop reading this in just a sec. if yall havent already stopped. everybody...JESUS LOVES YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH. He shed His precious blood to cleanse us from our crazy sins. go to God first...always. He is our saving grace. ya'll are awesome and uhh....i'll try and update a bit sooner next time...possibly. ok...i love all of yall...dont forget that...JESUS LOVES YOU ALL!!!!! bye

"becca...thankyou sooo much for letting me put music to your song!!!!" the words are beautiful. YOU'RE AWESOME BECCA. so yah...then i went over to the great luscious one known as Paul Meyer...his house and hung out with him for a wee bit. this is crazy. im not gonna see that guy for 10 weeks. he's off at an academy...boot camp sorta thing in Big Sandie. danf. i love that guy and its really gonna be a long time till i see again. great awesome christian guy. well right now im just listening to a REALLY good poem that i downloaded from this guy Bradley Hathaway. crazy good stuff...well everyone!!!...i know this is probly kinda a boring xanga post, but this is whats been going on with me. well hey...i havent been writing...(like poetry writing) in a little bit..but here...i'll write down the last thing ive written. here goes...this is like a prayer straigh to God...

   Oh father, You whose blood drips down at the feet of the undeserving, may this penman's ballad be a proclomation of my love unto You, the One deserving. Such a useless endeavor to gather justification to a man's regrets. I regret that the words I soon shall say are truthfully written aboard this treasured papyrus replica. Lord, my Dear, You know that the writings hastening from this ink-filled tool have mainly been of love, but sadly, scarcely did I etch words of passion and fire for You into these pages awaiting to be filled with syllabled presence. Daddy, I must have been an obvious fool to have not grasped hold of the joy You've given, each time it tries to ride afar into the blackness of "who-knows-what." Your presence and watchful guidance is all that will fill any secondhand void within my slow-learning heart and my longing soul. A proclomation of love and need.

tell me what ya'll think

Alex. ahhh...i miss him. if any of ya'll do not know either of my brothers...SHAME!!! i am sad for you...tears are streaming. wow...my brothers are amazing men that truly love the Lord. i love those guys. ok well...life...it is beautiful...it is good...it is crazy...many good ways...many bad ways...God leads us through the bad ways if we'll just hold onto His hand and let Him lead and guide. well...today i went to the lovely salmon lake here in my totally favorite place ever...GRAPELAND!!! went to salmon lake with a few friends. one of them i hadnt seen in a long time. she lives in England. good to see her. so...it was three of us and 2 of the 4 of us were having serious crazy drama episodes in their love relationship. oh my gosh. its kinda entertaining but kinda boring to watch people having all this crazy drama in their life. i just watch and like "oh my gosh...this is crazy"...there's tears and running off and then at the end of the episode...it turns into the whole brady bunch TV show and everything turns out alright between the two. oh my GOSH!!!! serious crazy moods going freaky WILD!!!!  wow...i probly sound like a serious cold-hearted dude...but that was just some crazy drama...hmm...if i was in their shoes i may be doing the same thing...well...i kinda doubt it. i hope i wouldnt. that was just psycho. do any of ya'll know those kinda people where its like youve been around em during like an awesome spiritual time in worshipping God and getting closer to Him...and then like weeks later you're around em and they're all cussing and al this junk. i HATE that!! it makes me uncomfortable..but also it just hurts seeing that this person is going off cussing and not pleasing God in the things he's saying. its sad and...sad. i was thinking about this...what if someone said to you...well, cussing helps me get my anger and madness out...do you think itd be true to say to them..."...you're just saying these things so that you can feel better about yourself, but in such a shameful way." do you think that's true? that a lot of the time when cuss words are said that it's said to make yourself feel better and to heighten the pride in your life? thought id ask. well everyone...im out. i love ya'll all so much. please never forget. i know this is a long post...but hey, it's my life in God's hands...in His beautiful crazy world.

hey everyone!!! wow...it's been a LONG time since i've written on this buddy. it's kinda kool to actually write somethin on here again. well...stuff has happened lately. i was at camp for 4 whole week (frontier camp)(like...july 3rd-whenever 4 weeks is over) then this past weekend i went to this christian leadership retreat type of thing. that might sound just like some normal kinda church camp kinda thing....it is NOT AT ALL LIKE CHURCH CAMP!!!!! it is honestly totally so much deeper...you come back changed...renewed...comitted...it's amazing. it was called Vida Nueva. if ya'll have ever heard of something called Tres Dias...this is like the young men's version of a three day weekend retreat called Tres Dias. they have a young men's Vida Nueva and a yuong women's Vida Nueva which occured right before the young men's weekend. it was totally amazing...seeing lives changed...seeing your own life changed. growing closer to Christ...having a true longing for Him. wanting to follow after Him and live out His will for your life. He deserves our total devotion and love. what are we gonna give Him in return for Him giving up His life for us. so much of the time we hold on to bitterness...regrets...disappointments...anger...rage...unforgiveness....and we lose sight of what God wants for us...for our lives. God always has the best in mind even if we might think its kinda crazy at times. He loves us more than we could ever know...if we can just give our total faith to Him and let Him guide our heart, mind, and soul .He deserves our all. if you look at what God wants for us you see that its not crazy at all, but its totally beautiful and amazing what He has planned for our lives...not like i know all that God has planned for my life or anyone else's life...but i know that God always has amazing and beautiful things planned ahead for us. well everyone...i know its been a while since ive written on here...but i hope i'll still have a few people interested possibly in reading about this life of mine that God has blessed me with...blessed me with every precious breath. i love ALL of you. never forget that. bye
