Every year I try to do something new, something different.
This year Kellie and I will be getting married, that is a big change but an amazing one.
We have an ultrasound now at work. My dream job, ultrasonography, may be coming true.
Then there is blueshallow. This site is also in for change.
Stay tuned.

Worrying is an exhaustive feeling. It's amazing how this single feeling can chisel away at confidence and self-esteem. Consuming time while twisting your gastrointestinal tract, it truly is a horendous feeling to acquire.
I spent the last couple days worrying. It had to do with work and the last patient I had seen. I was looking forward to my 5 day vacation this Thanksgiving. However, when you leave work without conclusion, worry can start to settle in.
Despite co-workers, colleagues, friends, and my fiance saying everything will be fine, worry continued to ensue.
I was reading my bible last night. I was reading Matthew 6:25-28... a small snippet of a sermon given by Jesus. He pretty much went up on a mountain and told people how to be good. This particular section was about worry.
I already know that God will take care of me, but reading the actual Word regarding this trechorous feeling in my gut helped alleviate my pain. I said a prayer, surrendered my anxiety and worry, and allowed him to continue His plan.
I felt so much more relieved this morning, despite waking up at 4 AM to go shopping on Black Friday.
I encourage anyone who struggles with worry, to let it go. Worrying does nothing for the situation besides rip your apart from the inside. God and His children will take care of you.

I have this android app - YouVersion Bible. It's nice to have a bible to carry around with you on a daily basis. The challenge is actually using it.
This particular app allows you to pick pre-set plans that have sets of readings for each day. You can select short courses that only last a few days and other courses lasting a year long.
I'm currently in the middle of the Essential 100. It is a 100 day course with the first 50 days in the old testament and the final 50 days in the new testament. I'm at day 50 now and enjoyed the plan thus far. I was a little disappointed with the plan excluding any passages from Job.
Either way, it is one way for me to keep my head in the Word on a daily basis. I think that is a major issue Christians struggle with.
If you have a smart phone, I highly recommend this app.
