What's going on in El Paso

John "Danny" Olivas. El Pasoan, UTEP proud grad and NASA Astronaut
Well my television is broken. I hadn't been watching it for a while because I was so busy. Well after being so busy, of course I had what I call a little "rest." Usually what happens is that I run around and around and then sort of breakdown because my body can no longer take it. Well tonight I needed to laundry, work on a group project for school, answer some questions online for the same class, and get started on reading a chapter there would be a quiz on for Tuesday. I guess God said no more and decided to make me get rid of my t.v. Apparently I can't even use my dvd and vcr players with it. So for a while I will have to get my television fix from my family's t.v.s, because I definitely cannot afford to fix mine or get another. I guess that isn't so bad. I heard my class next month will be a monster and there will be a lot of work. Not to mention I have so much christian literature to read, I could catch up on that. Well that's my ho hum life, not that many people notice.

Life





Before I mourned I celebrated, and I still do.
WELCOME ELI DEAN NORMAN!!!!!!!
(my adopted nephew :)

Death, Candice Craig Chavira

Candice,

You cannot hear me right now. You are sleeping. One day you will awake, but I'm not sure you will like what you see. I don't know that I will ever see you again, but I will remember you. I promise to remember your babies. I promise to pray for Joshua, Gabriella and Adriana. They will miss their mama. Your family will miss their daughter and sister. We will miss the positive energetic person we were all so happy to work with. It's not fair that you are gone, but you are. No matter what happened I know your husband will miss you. I pray the truth will come out about your husband whether bad or good. I pray people will have the courage to stand up and speak out. I hope that they will be able to put aside their own personal discomfort and remember the woman who stood tall. I'm scared of what will come out, to know that there are people out there who are capable of such horrible ugly things. I knew this already but this is way to close to home. I don't know if their is hope for your soul, but I promise to do what I can to keep hope alive for your family, especially your babies.....

Decisions

I sometimes wish I were living back in the 40's and 50's when being a woman wasn't exactly all that hard. You got married and had children and your husband took care of and protected you. It seems a more simple easy life. However, I know that I was put here in this time for a reason. I have such a strong desire in my heart to do missionary work and this may not have been as easily accessible as it is now. I say this knowing that I haven't done what is needed to jumstart this process, whatever that may be. I feel like I'm waiting for something. Around April 1st we had a woman come in and sort of reinact the life of Corrie Ten Boom from her book. Because of her father she learned to have such a love for the Jewish people. I want to know such passion. A few Sundays ago the Cox family came to Calvary. They would be leaving May 17th to Africa to live with their children. They would be working with TWR a radio ministry there in Africa. This spoke to my heart so much. I wish to do this. I want to go to Africa, India, to all kinds of places. To be quite honest when I think of my future I see myself doing these things. As much as I want a child and a husband I can't imagine myself doing those things. I can't see myself teaching in a regular classroom. I think part of that is because I have allowed myself to be partly "deromanticized" by the circumstances in my life. I know when it comes time for me to do my thing, God will show me what to do. I just wish I could turn on the life changing burning passion for God right now. I hate the apathy that has invaded and infected my life. However, no matter what I won't be leaving God and He won't be leaving me.

how great He is......


HOW GREAT THOU ART

O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made;
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

When through the woods, and forest glades I wander,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees.
When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur
And see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing;
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration,
And then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
