I love my church. It's something I can always look forward to. I can't wait to go to heaven. I wish there was some way to get everybody saved and then just go. I'm tired of this world. People need to hurry up and get right before they get left. You never know when the time is gonna be. It could be right now as your taking in a breath. He could snatch it back right now if he wanted too. But no he's not. I believe that if your still here on this earth God has something for you. I believe if there wasn't you wouldn't be here. I believe this about myself also. God has more for me. I'm not going to just give up. I will make it to heaven.

I guess I could go on talking about all I &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; have and how terrible I've got it but &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;I'm&lt;/span&gt; not. I choose to testify and give God all of the glory. I &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; know about you but I think he deserves it. I guess I'll talk about Youth Camp. I'll start off by saying that it was great. It was better than any one &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;I've&lt;/span&gt; ever been too. I know people usually say that about everyone they ever go to but i mean it. I know usually I would go to get a new girlfriend and to have fun. But this year was nothing like it. I know it would've been nice to get a girlfriend but oh well. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;LOL&lt;/span&gt;. Well &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;anywho&lt;/span&gt; it was much more than that. The Lord really took over. Every night somebody would get something. Everybody is always talking about how good the church use to be and young people I'm here to tell you, IT HASN'T CHANGED! People's always talking about the congregation getting up and shouting and no matter age or size everybody got up and was worshipping the Lord. Well young people I'm here to tell you, IT STILL HASN'T CHANGED! Youth Camp was wonderful. That building shook with God's &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;wondrous&lt;/span&gt; glory. It was great. Every prayer I prayed was &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;answered&lt;/span&gt;. Both of my little brothers got the Holy Ghost. Now if that isn't great I &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;don't&lt;/span&gt; know what is. My faith has been boosted to a good 100%. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Whoo&lt;/span&gt;. Also I was praying that the Youth in Milan and I would get to know each other better and also get what they needed from the Lord. Guess what once again I've been Blessed. Now Kyle and I are really great friends. I think are biggest attraction was Dr. Pepper &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;lol&lt;/span&gt;. Oh goodness I crack myself up sometimes. Maybe that can be the attraction &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;between&lt;/span&gt; his sister Anna and I too. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;LOL&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;Anywho&lt;/span&gt; back to what I was saying we've become really great friends. Also I told you I was praying they'd get closer to the Lord. Guess what another prayer was &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;answered&lt;/span&gt;. Anna got &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;sanctified&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;Woohoo&lt;/span&gt;. I happy and i &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;dont&lt;/span&gt; know about you but &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;I'm&lt;/span&gt; clapping my hands for the Lord. Clap, clap, and clap. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;LOL&lt;/span&gt;. I know the Lord is no where near done also. I believe the Lord got more for us yet. So all of whoever reads this blog know not to give up. Because with my God, nothing is impossible. So don't give up. Your &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;answer&lt;/span&gt; is near. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-4860254970608071598?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/4860254970608071598/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=4860254970608071598' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4860254970608071598'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4860254970608071598'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2009/06/testimony.html' title='A testimony'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-9209346118124876346</id><published>2009-03-10T11:54:00.004-06:00</published><updated>2009-03-10T12:01:44.365-06:00</updated><title type='text'>My happy place and I</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hello again.

I can't wait to drive down the road with my windows down again. That's my happy place really. When i'm all alone in my coolest truck going down the road. I guess i just feel so free that its crazy. Its like no matter how i feel before i go anywhere, when i get into the truck everything else just disappears. It's just me, God and a little piece of Damon. Words can hardly describe the way i feel in that very special truck.

I just can't seem to think straight. I am having some problems that some of you will most likely figure out if you are around me enough. Its not really gonna be that hard to figure out at all actually. I mean if you know me at all its plain and simple. But please pray for me. I really need it at the moment. I don't have any idea what to do next. Do i need to just give up and just go with the flow and be how i used to be or try to fix the problem and do what i know could to fix it. This is really hard. Someone i care about may never talk to me again. The thought of it stinks like some thing crazy. This is just my luck. Or maybe this is just my life. Well please keep me in your prayers.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Thanks.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000099;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Michael &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-6367426275542017336?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/6367426275542017336/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=6367426275542017336' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/6367426275542017336'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/6367426275542017336'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2008/11/thanks.html' title='Thanks.'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-8069287198947561740</id><published>2008-10-05T19:33:00.005-05:00</published><updated>2008-10-05T20:32:19.318-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Title:No Idea At Times...</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Some times i wonder why in the world did God just have to give us free will. I absolutely hate it like something crazy. Adam and Eve just had to be deceived into eating of the tree of good and evil and ruining all our lives. The stinking jerks. Did you know that there would be no problems if they hadn't been deceived and ate of the tree of good and evil. That's all it was a stinking stupid tree. They only had one rule and they just had to break it. Man sometimes i wish i could just go back and tell them whats up. I wish i could warn them of everything that has happened now because of that simple mistake that they just had to make. You know what I'm talking bout to. There are millions on top of millions of problems with this world that is the affect of that cause that they just had to bring about. Like how my school has been on the news from being the worse school in the state and how we've had about 435 arrest because of fights last year and already about 80 this year. And oh my goodness don't even get me started about politics. I am finally coming to the age where i can vote. But I'm not sure i even want to. I mean look at all the people that are running. On one side they're trying to make it legal for gays to get married and on the other side raising taxes, going to war, killing ourselves, gas prices and so on and so forth. I haven't any idea which is which but tell something, does it really matter? People are getting killed everyday just because of Adam and Eve and wanting to know pretty much what sin is. Well guess what people here it is. Its every where you go. I wish they could be here know just to see what their affect is. I hate Sin with a stinking passion. ITS WHAT KEEPS PEOPLE FROM HEAVEN AND I HATE IT. Some people think they know and they really don't.THEY DON'T HAVE A STINKING CLUE WHATS UP AND WHATS DOWN. These people need to pray. I work with and go to school with people that care more about getting smarter about a world that is probably going to come to an abrupt end than learning about the Lord. Now isn't that crazy. I think id rather go to heaven what about you. I mean i don't have nothing against a good education but that's not whats gonna get me to heaven. Did you know that humans are the only thing on earth that doesn't do what there supposed to do. We're the top of food chain and really most don't do whats right. Tell me why that is. I wish that the Lord would just take over and take away free will. People i don't think don't deserve it. People aren't smart enough for it anyways. I really do wish that there was only one way to go and that was to heaven. I really do hate sin. Well i guess Ive said enough. I guess ill go ahead and apologize. I really hope i didn't affend anybody by this or if i did i hope its the kind that will help more than harm. Maybe i just should just keep my thoughts with in. Well i &lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;sorry&lt;/span&gt; anyways. luv ya.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-8069287198947561740?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/8069287198947561740/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=8069287198947561740' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/8069287198947561740'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/8069287198947561740'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2008/10/titleno-idea-at-times.html' title='Title:No Idea At Times...'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-5311308648640722832</id><published>2008-10-05T19:25:00.003-05:00</published><updated>2008-10-05T19:32:52.146-05:00</updated><title type='text'>My Life...</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#cc33cc;"&gt;Why does life have to be so complicated.

Well for those who didn't know I've kinda started working out again like crazy. I want to get really strong this time. I think I've already just about got back to where i had left off. Ive already started losing fat too. Ive went from 172 lbs to what i just weighted myself today at 167 lbs. I actually want to gain all that weight back in muscle. I am actually in mid work out right now. I am resting at the moment. I just did 50 push ups. I haven't done that since my best friend past away. I know i can do this. I am already seeing definition. I don't guess i was that out of weight to begin with but i want to be so in shape its crazy. Well Ive actually started thinking about arm wrestling again. I kinda want to set the bar a lil high. Ive been thinking bout trying to go against Bro. Steve. Ive heard that hes been working out too. I heard hes benching 21o. Isn't that pretty cool. I want to put it to the test though. I know there is a chance that I well lose but i also remember i was thinking the same think when i went up against Bro. Galen. up at camp. Guess what, that was two years ago and i beat him. It was hard though. But i imagine I'm stronger or getting stronger now and i want to come back with a bang. Well if its alright that is i would like to try against Bro. Steve but only if he wants too. Well i guess that's enough for now. See ya ll peeps later.

For me my day wasn't so great. I had a really rough day at work today unfortunatly.  I had to pray really hard to day during my shift because well you see I was kind of on the edge of going balistic. I mean if I had of stayed any longer at work tonight i would have probably ended up in juvenile. I was actually about to fight this guy. I am so tired of turning the other cheek. I dont know what is up with this guy. I am so nice to him. The guy apparently abosolutely hates my guts. He thinks hes perfect I guess. He's so good about pointing out every little mistake everybody does. You know I think I wouldnt be so mad at him if he would just leave me alone sometimes. I know I am obviously not doing very much wrong because i just got a raise. So i really wish he would just leave me alone and let me do my job. I am so tired of doing everything. And you know here lately i have pretty much been doing everything just hopeing he would have a better attitude towards me. But no the dude still hates me. I wish I could just say I am sorry to the guy but Ive kinda done tried that. Well i am glad i made it out of there today. I guess i am just tired of running the whole sonic kitchen by myself. I am tired of being hated. I am tired of being told i cant do anything right. I am tired of trying to please somebody who no matter what i do for will still hate me. I am always doing stuff for him but when i ask for his help he'll just say no or say something that just makes me want to cry or just go insane over. I am so tired of the guy. I wish he would just get saved or somfin. Well please pray for me. I am just so tired of feeling like crap. Well i guess I'm gonna get off here. I suppose i have depressed yall enough. But please pray for me. And don't just pray for me pray for this other guy too. He really needs the Lord. Well I love yall.

I had the first banana split I have ever had in my entire life. When I told the girls at Sonic today they thought I was crazy. When they found I was not messing around with them they insisted that I try one out. Well guess what?? I love the things. I can now say I think Banana Splits taste great. Well if you haven't ever had a banana split I think you should try one. So tonight at work was pretty fun I guess. Seems that is unusual  LOL. It seems to have flown by. Well I wish more of the nights were like this. Well I guess ill tell yall somfin else that is pretty weird. I got up yesterday morning at 4:30am. Isn't that weird. Well its not somfin I really want to do a lot. But I did have a reason for doing it. I had to go to my grandfathers in Mt. Juliet. It was really cool. The sun was just coming up and everything. The traffic lights were blinking on and off. The roads were pretty much empty except for a couple of other peeps that i guess had places to be. It was super fun though. It was the first time I was up that early and driving. And mind you I was even all alone. Pretty cool and a bit creepy stuff. I loved it though. Maybe I will do it again sometime. I suppose I will try and find somewhere to go first I don't want to get up that early for nothing. Okay i think I am done with this blog. so see you guys later. Hope yall have had a good day and gonna have more to come. Well I guess i gonna go now .

I got off work early then I went with my mom to Olive Garden which was really great by itself. Well then what to talk about. Hmm..Well I'd like to thank the Lord for just how good he is. I serve an amazing God. God is just so great I wonder why people or what makes people think it is so hard to be a christian. It is not that hard to serve God. I think it is quite easy actually. All you have to do is pray and read your bible and go to church regularly. God gives us everything we need to survive. He helps us go from day to day. He never puts any kind of a burden on us that we can't handle. So I really don't get why it is so hard to serve God. He does so much for us and it seems some people don't even think about how much he does. It seems the least we can do his serve him and thank him for what he does for us. I think if we was to try to pay the Lord back we would be in extreme debt. So why can't we do as much as we can to serve him? I think if we give a hundred and ten percent to worldly events we should give the Lord at least a hundred and twenty percent. Another thing I really don't get is why people question so much what is wrong and what is right. It seems to me that if you can even question the thought in your head it is most likely wrong. Or maybe you just say something like I don't do this so and so to show off I just feel kind of naked without it. Or maybe you say something like I don't wear this for pride I just wear it you know i guess just to wear it. And then maybe sometimes you get into the right crowd and you start trying to show off. Well I guess you just should not do something if you feel it could be wrong. You should immediately dismiss the thought completely. Well I guess i just think if maybe jewelry or makeup is the problem I think it should be easy just to not wear it. I really don't think there should be any questions asked. Maybe i guess some people want to wait until they can really feel guilty for what they have done. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;But I guess humans are the only thing on earth that can make there own decisions. Everything else on earth does exactly what it is supposed to do without questioning well maybe if I do so and so for this reason or something like that. But I guess that saying is true about the horse. You know the one where it talks about giving the horse water but you cant make it drink. God is always giving us stuff that we need spiritually. Why is it so hard for some people just to take it. Well Sorry for this blog I just thinking out loud I guess. Well ill talk to y'all peoples later.Luv ya.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-5080128349240752468?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/5080128349240752468/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=5080128349240752468' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/5080128349240752468'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/5080128349240752468'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2008/06/just-another-blog.html' title='Just another blog...'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-1831554574009719149</id><published>2008-06-22T14:14:00.002-05:00</published><updated>2008-06-22T14:29:31.122-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Hey</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#3366ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hey its me again. Well.. Como' estas.I hope everybody is having a good day today. I went to church today. Today was my second day driving to church. I really enjoy driving. I think I get a little better every day. We watched that video of Damon singing again on the wall at church. Goodness it sure is depressing. I sure did love him. He really was my best friend. I could tell or ask him anything. He was just so perfect for me. Anytime I had a problem and brought it to his attention he would always do his best to find the anwser. It doesn't seem I really can talk to or be able to get a point across or i just cannot seem to explain myself as well as others. I have found I am not as wise as i thought i was and seemed to be in the old days when Damon was around. Now it seems all I really ever get is corrections. Well I guess that's a good thing I mean without corrections no one could ever better themselves. But still it seems my self confidence has dropped dramatically. Well I don't guess it really matters though i mean I dont really know why I tell yall all of this. I don't really want yall to know any of this to tell u the truth. I guess I'm just crazy like that well sorry for taking up some of your time. Maybe next time i will think of something a little more interesting. I have been thinking about doing research on why wearing make up and jewelry is wrong.Well see yalls people later.

Ive been having some problems. But i refuse to let them bring me down. I know now that apparently Ill never be able to please everybody and now is the time I think I m just gonna give up. I'm just gonna be the best i can be. I guess that's probably the best i can do. Well I'm about tired of acting all depressed when i get on here so from now on i am gonna do my best to be more happy. Being depressed does nothing buy make u feel sorry for yourself. I'm tired of feeling sorry for myself. Theres really no point in it. I think its time for another change. I hope this change will actually be a good one. I think I'm gonna try and talk less or at least give my opinion less. I've found that I will probably be less likely to stick my foot in my mouth if i just keep it closed. Plus it seems that i am to dumb to prove a point. So there is no point in trying to prove one if i cant. And most of the time i even know nothing about what i am trying to talk about. I really don't know what my problem is. I'd like to say I'm special ed or something but i obviously cant really prove that either. Or maybe well i don't know.I just really want to change. I am tired of being and acting dumb all of the time and also trying to please everyone. I think its time to quit. I am tired of all of this. It is definitely time for a change. I am going to try to do less talkin and more observing . I hope i am really able to carry this out. I know people are probably going to doubt me but I am still going to try. well here goes another blog well sorry for depressing yall again. Ill try to do better next time.

Hope everybody has had a good day today. I took my mom out on a date to O'Charleys. Then we went to look at some Ipods. I am thinking about getting one. But I am having some problems. I don't really have access to the net. So thats kinda a major prob. Well I am actually reading a book. I think its Bekkahs fault. Well I've been reading a lot. The other night I even read to her over the phone lol. How cool is that? My girlfriend is just so totally awesome. Well the coolest ant ever is back home. I think its about time. There for a while i thought she forgot about me. Well shes back.Well I have to say Ive had a really good Break. This will be the first break where i actually had a girl friend. Well I don't guess I've really ever had a girlfriend besides the ones i had at youth camp and i don't really know if i can actually call those girls my girlfriends. So I guess Bekkah well be the only  one who i can actually call my girlfriend. I am glad I've been spoiled with her though. I really don't think i deserve her. I cant believe that she is actually my girlfriend. I think she deserves a lot more than me. I am probably not the only one who thinks like that either. But i do agree with them. I think she deserves somebody that might actually make a difference in the world. Unfortunately I believe I am only a stepping stone in this beautiful girls life. I know I probably will be depressed when she does firgure out that I am far from perfect and leaves me for Mr. Wonderful but at least she'll be able to be happy. I really just want her to be happy.

She really needs the Lord's healing. I only met her i think once but that doesn't matter to me. Her name is Sarah. She is in the hospital as far as i know and i really feel depressed. I really want the Lord to help her. I also think he can do it. I know what he has done so far for her is a miracle but i know nothing is impossible for God to do and i am still praying a lot that he will completely heal her. I have saw what he has done for Bro. Brad and I am determined to keep on praying for this girl. I do realize this girl has probably doesn't remember me at all and i also realize she might not ever talk to me in my future but i don't care about all that. All i care is that she survives. So please play for this girl. She needs your prayers. I would greatly appreciate it.

I think Ive decided that im gonna start posting again. And i also have made it a point in my mind that i am not gonna tell my feelings on here. But please still pray for me i feel that i am at war with myself. I guess its the devil trying to make me feel bad. I guess i just don't think i can ever do anything right. It really bugs me too. Well here i go again telling my depressing thoughts sowwy yall. i am really trying to stop. I don't like it when i get people worried bout me. People have enough to worry besides me. So i am really gonna try and stop so here goes nothing.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt; OK well then, well i guess i can talk bout people at school. I wonder why people are the way they are at school. Some people are just so mean. Its crazy sometimes. Its like I'm just so nice to them but they just don't know how to take it. My goodness sometimes i wish they would just listen to me i think i could help them if i could just get them to hear me out on sometimes. But i guess there are a couple that listen to me and they do really good with my advice. Like this one girl at school is having boy problems. Tis seems i have a lot of girls that come to me with their problems. Tis kinda weird at times but all i care is helping people in need. The one thing i want for everybody is to just make it to heaven. And thats wat i want more than anything else. I really want everybody to just be happy. I am not gonna worry bout getting a friend now. I think i was wasting my time trying to please everybody. Well looks like i back on my old mission just to help people out at school.

Do yall ever wish you could just make everyone happy and for everybody to like you? It seems I've been having an extremely hard time with it. But I guess it's okay though I mean I don't guess everyone is ever going to like me. Goodness I really miss Damon. It doesn't seem like I ever even cared about any of this stuff when he was here. He was the only one I really cared about making happy. Now I guess Im really trying to find somebody thats really like him that actually likes me and i'm finding it really hard. I know I got everybody in the church but I guess i just feel like I need somebody that I can actually be around and not get on there nerves or make them mad or anything. I really want a bestest best friend. That can understand me and I can talk to and express myself to and talk about my horrible days at school. Somebody that I can sit and watch movies with or tell jokes with and both laugh no matter how stupid they are. Somebody thats just a little smarter than me or just not show there smarter than me. Or somebody that just I dont feel completely dumb with. Somebody that i can ask a really stupid question to and they won't laugh or make me feel really dumb. I don't guess I'll ever be able to get somebody like Damon to be my bestest best friend. It really figures that he had to leave me like this. I am really begging for somebody. I am tired of getting on peoples nerves because I'm so desperate for a friend. I just wish I could have my Damon back. Jesus help me. I need somebody. Please...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#00cccc;"&gt; well sowwy for depressing yall...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-3445464964784685069?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/3445464964784685069/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=3445464964784685069' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/3445464964784685069'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/3445464964784685069'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/11/my-luck.html' title='My luck...'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-268626203071871616</id><published>2007-10-26T19:41:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-10-26T19:55:32.583-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Please...</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3366ff;"&gt; Jesus help me.

Satan told of other horrible&lt;br /&gt;Perversions that were once in my life and the more he spoke, the&lt;br /&gt;further&lt;br /&gt;down in my seat I sank.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was so embarrassed that I couldn't look at anyone, even my own&lt;br /&gt;Attorney, as the Devil told of sins that even I had completely&lt;br /&gt;forgotten&lt;br /&gt;about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As upset as I was at Satan for telling all these things about&lt;br /&gt;me, I was equally upset at My Attorney who sat there silently not&lt;br /&gt;Offering any form of defense at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know I had been guilty of those things, but I had done some&lt;br /&gt;good in my life - couldn't that at least equal out part of the harm&lt;br /&gt;I'd&lt;br /&gt;done?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Satan finished with a fury and said, "This man belongs in hell,&lt;br /&gt;he is guilty of all that I have charged and there is not a person&lt;br /&gt;who&lt;br /&gt;can prove otherwise."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When it was His turn, My Attorney first asked if He might&lt;br /&gt;approach the bench.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Judge allowed this over the strong objection of Satan,&lt;br /&gt;and beckoned Him to come forward.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As He got up and started walking, I was able to see Him in&lt;br /&gt;His full splendor and majesty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realized why He seemed so familiar; this was Jesus&lt;br /&gt;representing me, my Lord and my Savior.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He stopped at the bench and softly said to the Judge, "Hi,&lt;br /&gt;Dad ," and then He turned to address the court.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Satan was correct in saying that this man had sinned,&lt;br /&gt;I won't deny any of these allegations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, yes, the wage of sin is death, and this man deserves to be&lt;br /&gt;punished."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus took a deep breath and turned to His Father with&lt;br /&gt;outstretched arms and proclaimed, "However, I died on the cross so&lt;br /&gt;that&lt;br /&gt;this person might have eternal life and he has accepted Me as his Savior, so he is Mine."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My Lord continued with, "His name is written in the Book of Life,&lt;br /&gt;and no one can snatch him from Me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Satan still does not understand yet.&lt;br /&gt;This man is not to be given justice, but rather mercy."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Jesus sat down,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He quietly paused, looked at His Father and said,&lt;br /&gt;"There is nothing else that needs to be done."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"I've done it all."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Judge lifted His mighty hand and slammed the gavel down.&lt;br /&gt;The following words bellowed from His lips...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"This man is free."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The penalty for him has already been paid in full.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Case Dismissed."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As my Lord led me away, I could hear Satan ranting and raving,&lt;br /&gt;"I won't give up; I will win the next one." I asked Jesus as He gave&lt;br /&gt;me&lt;br /&gt;my instructions where to go next, "Have you ever lost a case?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Christ lovingly smiled and said,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Everyone that has come to Me and asked Me to represent them&lt;br /&gt;has received the same verdict as you,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;~Paid In Full~&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Stop telling God how big your storm is.&lt;br /&gt;Instead, tell the storm how big your God is!" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-7759631443026148114?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/7759631443026148114/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=7759631443026148114' title='9 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/7759631443026148114'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/7759631443026148114'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/10/something-that-i-think-will-bless-you.html' title='Something that I think will bless you'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>9</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-2542570777080873117</id><published>2007-10-15T11:47:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-10-15T11:48:08.287-05:00</updated><title type='text'>LOVE</title><content type='html'>&lt;table width="350" align="center" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2"&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bg align="center" style="color:#DDDDDD;"&gt;&lt;span style="'color:black;font-family:Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;You Would Choose Love&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#EEEEEE"&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="http://images.blogthings.com/wouldyouchooseloveormoneyquiz/love.jpg" height="100" width="100" /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Money may buy a little happiness, but not the happiness of true love.You rather have a true soulmate than a private jet.And while many people may claim they would choose love too...You're one of the few who would really do it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="&lt;a href="&gt;http://www.blogthings.com/wouldyouchooseloveormoneyquiz/"&gt;Would&lt;/a&gt; You Choose Love or Money?&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-2542570777080873117?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/2542570777080873117/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=2542570777080873117' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/2542570777080873117'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/2542570777080873117'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/10/love.html' title='LOVE'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-1802039714789149007</id><published>2007-10-15T11:30:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-10-15T11:36:37.563-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Finally another post...</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hey what's up everybody.

I got up late like about one thirty. The reason why was I stayed up late last night talking to the girl of my dreams. I think it was well worth it though. Well today when I got up it was a little after lunch time so I got up just in time. We went and got Mexican food. It was really good. I know it really woke me up. After I got through eating I went and got a hair cut. I guess it looks okay. I came back and was going to check me blog and Kasey pulled up and kidnapped me. She took me to play football with the people from my church. It was really fun. I actually figured out I obviously have hidden talents. I can actually be a good quarter back. The first time I through it, it had everybody surprised. They said it was as if I was throwing a bullet I was throwing it so fast. I can throw pretty far too come to find out. I am pretty good at catching the ball too. I am so happy now that I know I am actually good at something. This is so cool. Well I guess I was having too much fun because a little while later I caught the ball wrong and jammed my finger. Well after all that happened Bro. Keith came with a bunch of people he works with. They was super good. One was stinking huge and the other two was just really good i guess. What made it really cool was A.J. and Dionte Jackson came and played with us too. I was kinda surprised they still knew me because it seems like its been forever since I've seen them. They was really good at football too. They was like the best on my team. Well that was really fun. After all that was over I road home with Bro.Keith and we stopped and got something to eat. So we ended up eating Krystal's which was really good. I was really eating big because my order was really big. Bro.Keith was kind of challenge me to eat a whole sackful from there. For all ya ll that don't know a sackful consist of 12 chicks and two Dr.Peppers. It was really awesome because I had Keith pretty much cracking up laughing at me. I ate all of them. It was so cool. Although I was really feeling sick afterwards. Bro.Keith thought I was going to puke but I was determined to hold it down. And luckily I did. So I have to say I am really proud of myself today. So that's all I have to say at the moment.

Yall probably know who I am talking about. But if you don't I am talking about Bekka. The most awesome girl ever. She has been a great help to me too. I know people have been telling me I have also helped her but she has helped me in ways that no body else but Damon could've. She been the best. She is a girl I could see myself with sometime down the road. It seems that a good married couple is able to talk, trust, help,and care for the one they love. And as far as I'm concerned we have all them characteristics. She is someone that I can express my self with. She is a great help probably more than she knows. I hope she doesn't get mad at me for posting about her but I like to give credit to where credit is due. I think God sent her to me to be another help. I think my next question for her is going to be "did it hurt when you fell from heaven".LOL. Well she makes me feel important and special like D&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;a&lt;/span&gt;mon use to do except from a girl and not an uncle. I guess that's going have to be the job for Kasey. But she is the first girl I have felt this way about. She makes me happy when I am sad. She makes me laughed when I am depressed. And she also cares about how I feel. And I the same about her. I can say she is the bestest friend besides Damon I have ever had. I am also proud to say that now she is my girlfriend. Which makes me so happy finally be able to say. She is the first girl I have ever been so close to like this. Which so totally rocks. Its awesome opossum. OH my goodness I so happy. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Well I think I'll stop talking now before I bury myself.LOL.Jk. She told me it was okay. So here goes another dedication to a very special person.LOL.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Love you...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Michael&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-9119028317564863850?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/9119028317564863850/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=9119028317564863850' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/9119028317564863850'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/9119028317564863850'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/09/i-would-like-to-dedicate-this-blog-to.html' title='To a very special someone...'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-9213714284811836954</id><published>2007-09-21T18:19:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-09-21T18:30:19.022-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Sis.

Ha Ha Ha. I would like to thank her for being such a good friend to me. She was a great help last summer with the way I was feeling. For all ya'll who don't know she let me spend the night over her house. And she'll be surprised to know that it meant so much to me I still remember my first meal there. She made Mexican food. It really tasted good. I had to have seconds it was so good. I may have even had thirds. Well her food is beside the point.LOL. But i did have a ear load of fun. And I'd also like to think her for letting me spend time at her house helping me to get more involved with the young people at church. I even had my first YMCA workout with them. Her, Sis. Lynn, Shaws, Kasey, and the Goodman's were a great help as far as getting me involved. Me dedicating this post to her is probably gonna make her mad.LOL. Or that is what I'm shootin for anyways..

Most of you will probably be thinking that what I had fun doing was kinda weird. Well anyways I feel like have just had another visit with Damon. This time I felt very close. I felt like I went back to the old days. When anytime with Damon was always better than the last. Before I guess I even went to school. Back when I was itty and Damon was still here. The best days of my life. Well I feel like I have had a flash back or what ever. Another experience with Damon. Well i guess ill tell you what I was doing that that you are probably chomping at the bits to hear. I was cutting my grandmother's lawn. It started when I turned the key. As soon as i started and turned on the blades to start cutting the grass time just stopped. I stopped thinking. Everything stopped. In my head everything just slowed down. I felt like I was sitting in his lap again. I thought I was even hearing his voice. As weird as this is probably going to sound i thought i could even smell his smell. The smell of fresh cut grass. Oh I could just hear him singing in my ear. I felt like we was even kind of having one of are conversations. It was like a dream. I felt like I had a little taste of heaven. I wish the grass had of just kept on growing. I so sad it had to end. I felt like he was walking me through getting the grass cut. It even seemed like we was even talking about my first job. I could just hear him telling me how proud he is of me. Thanking me for spending time with Kasey. Helping taking care of her house while she was back at home. Remembering him offering me a Dr. Pepper and going to eat hott wings. Me telling him how much I love him and how I've been missing him. Him telling me its okay that he's made it to heaven. And telling me not to give up. That I can make it. And when ever I feel bad just to remember his song. Well I'm going to stop now. I need to get a grip. I'm actually crying. Well I love you Damon.&lt;br /&gt;see ya'll later. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-4301836176573270543?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/4301836176573270543/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=4301836176573270543' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4301836176573270543'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4301836176573270543'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/09/im-not-giving-up.html' title='I&apos;m not giving up!!!'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-2443457174174593505</id><published>2007-09-20T17:20:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-09-20T17:21:09.020-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Aww...</title><content type='html'>&lt;table width=350 align=center border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#EEE9E9" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" style='color:black;

Well I wrote my essay for English class yesterday. Well I got to present it today because we ran out of time in class yesterday. So I got to present today. Well for the most part I think it went pretty well. Oh and if your wondering what it was about it was about success. Well when I got through I asked if anyone had any questions about what I wrote. The teacher raised his hand. He asked me who was my romodel in my life. I told him I would have to say my uncle Damon. The reason why I gave him is because he was really successful. It didn't seem like their was ever any job to big or small to him. He was successful in a lot of ways. The most important thing he was successful at was getting to heaven. He was successful at getting a good wife. He had a good marriage. He was always to work away problems. He never gave up. It doesn't seem like he was ever afraid to witness to anyone either. I want to be just like him. I think he was probably the best romodel a guy could have.&lt;br /&gt;Damon was successful...&lt;br /&gt;He made it to heaven.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-4525180137638162271?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/4525180137638162271/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=4525180137638162271' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4525180137638162271'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4525180137638162271'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/09/success.html' title='Success'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-1855570967923948546</id><published>2007-09-18T21:10:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-09-18T21:11:34.883-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Interesting</title><content type='html'>&lt;table width=350 align=center border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=2&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#EEEEEE" align=center&gt;&lt;font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" style='color:black; font-size: 14pt;'&gt;&lt;b&gt;You Are a Roller Coaster&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td bgcolor="#FFFFFF"&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="http://images.blogthings.com/whatcarnivalrideareyouquiz/rollercoaster.gif" height="100" width="100"&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You live for excitement, adventure, and the most intense of thrills.&lt;br /&gt;Nothing is better than feeling you're truly alive, and you're willing to take risks to feel this way.&lt;br /&gt;In relationships, people often feel a bit nervous about what they're getting into...&lt;br /&gt;But generally, everyone enjoys the wild ride you take them on.

Goodness I just don't think it is possible some times. Well if your wondering what it was that i ate I'll tell you. Well at first my dad went and got some jalapeno cheese burgers. Well the first one I had was really good. So I decided to have another.LOL. Later this evening I decided to hang out with Kasey and Sis. Emily. Well when I got up to Kasey's she told me that she was going to make her famous Buffalo style chicken. And she packed my plate down with that stuff. And my goodness that stuff is so good. That is the kind of stuff I am usually craving and it's so stinking good. If you can ever get her to make it for you I think your blessed because tis a beast to get her to make it.

Yesterday my mom and I went to pick up Kasey from the airport. I hung out with her the rest of the day. Kasey and I ended up playing football with the VLB's from church. It was really fun. I was actually surprised because when we played they actually put me on the line. I was really surprised. It doesn't seem like i am big enough to be on the line or defence. But i guess i am apparently strong enough. Well I guess its nice to know that I am good at something besides lifting weights. Well it ended up getting dark so we ended up going to Sis. Emily's. That was really fun too. We played on the X-Box. It was pretty fun. They actually had two of them. They even had two Televisions. So more people got to play. We was even versing each other. So that was even cooler. So I had a lot of fun last night.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-4703461091597844133?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/4703461091597844133/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=4703461091597844133' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4703461091597844133'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4703461091597844133'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/09/ear-load-of-fun.html' title='An Ear load of fun!!!'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-2042567484633507810</id><published>2007-09-14T21:55:00.001-05:00</published><updated>2007-09-14T22:02:28.359-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Well it looks like i've been tagged</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://pawprints66.blogspot.com/2007/09/tag.html"&gt;Tag&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.

I guess I'll talk about Damon some more. Damon as you already know was my best friend. I loved him with all of my heart. I can call him the bestest friend I've ever had and probably ever will have. I loved him more than he knew. He was always their for me when I needed him. I never had to ask to spend the night at his house he would always ask me first. I kinda used to think it was funny. I can remember sitting in his lap riding the lawn mower on one of his old yards. One yard we mowed he would tell me used to be his when he was little. I remember Damon and I cutting grass while the locust swarming. I remember when we would go and hang out with his Dad but at the time that was where he lived. I can remember the year when he graduated high school. We used to drive by it some times and he would tell me about it. I remember every Christmas when I would get a new bike he would always put the first scratch on it. Oh it was always so funny. I remember when we used to just drive around talking about pretty much nothing. Every time I went anywhere I would have fun. I don't know how he did it but their was never a dull moment. I remember telling him that Kasey would be the one he married. I think he knew it too he just didn't to admit it. Well now it looked like I knew what I was talking about. I don't think he could've picked a better woman. Oh I wish I had my buddy back. Theres so much things I want to talk to him about. I love you Damon. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc00;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; Your buddy always...&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc00;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;          Michael &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-4220965919721959078?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/4220965919721959078/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=4220965919721959078' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4220965919721959078'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/4220965919721959078'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/09/i-remember.html' title='I remember'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-6259051921656879689</id><published>2007-09-09T15:21:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-09-09T15:27:17.516-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Wat's up</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Well today is just one of them days i just don't know what to blog about.

I got to hang out with Brad and Rachel. It was a lot of fun. I never knew talking about the girl of my dreams to Sis. Rachel would be so fun. It seemed like we were talking about her non stop. Oh my goodness it was so much fun. It was so funny. Sis Rachel was trying to get me to tell everything but I kept holding back. I don't think I've ever heard a voice get so high pitch in my entire life. And the look she was giving me in the midst of all this was simply priceless. Sis Rachel is so funny though I keep wandering on what she wants me to do.  It's kinda hard listening to her advice cuz I don't know whether to slow down or keep on going. But I think that is why I like Sis Rachel's advice because she pretty much tells me what I want to hear. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-6061247321744541914?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/6061247321744541914/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=6061247321744541914' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/6061247321744541914'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/6061247321744541914'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/09/fun.html' title='Fun'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-3479131713535478568</id><published>2007-08-30T16:53:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-08-30T16:56:52.928-05:00</updated><title type='text'>What's Up Ya'll</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Well i've added some music to my blog world hope yall like it.

I really don't know what to blog about. I guess I'll talk about this flaming Hot heat. It is way to hot to be out side. Even today was and it wasn't as hot as it has been. I wish it would snow at least 2 feet deep. Like a blanket. O forget all that I wish the Lord would just hurry up and come back. This whole world I think is to much for me. Something every day I think tries to depress us or just get us down and feeling bad. I think it is really the heat just getting to our heads. I think the heat slows everything down so it just gives us time to think. I really feel so sowwy for my Daddy. He's got to work in a metal building tomorrow and he's gonna feel like a bag of popcorn in a microwave getting ready to pop. I sure would appreciate it if ya'll would pray that he doesn't overheat. I do realize how hard his job is and I really don't want anything bad to happen. I have done felt the feeling of what it feels like to over heat. I would prefer not to tell you about it. And also if you want to pray for me because I also have to mow my yard and Kasey's. I would prefer my daddy first though. But I've done set in my mind that I am gonna do it and i don't care how hot it is. I know that wouldn't stop Damon and I want to be as much like him as i can. I know I have a long way to go. When I think about it i feel I've let him down some times and feel pathetic. I don't like it at all. I want so badly to be like him it hurts me to write this. But it is the truth. I want to be as Christ like as i can. I try to be as helpful as I can to everybody. I'm sorry if I have let anyone down. I'm sorry I wasn't able to spend time with you when you wanted. I'm sorry if I wasn't able to help when I was needed. I'm so sorry if I've hurt anyone. I try so hard to be everywhere at once. I've even been trying to help do stuff I didn't even want to do. But I do it because Damon would have done it the same way. I'm tring so hard to learn to put others first. It seems that is the way God would want it. And I want to be a good servant unto him. That is what I want more than anything else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-3145973555648424784?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/3145973555648424784/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=3145973555648424784' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/3145973555648424784'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/3145973555648424784'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/08/prayer.html' title='Prayer'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-6309388885985507977</id><published>2007-08-25T23:37:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-08-26T09:11:43.491-05:00</updated><title type='text'>IYC</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:#ff0000;"&gt;I had so much fun at IYC. The Lord as really been blessing me lately. I met all kinds of different people. I made more new friends. It was not at all what I had expected. It was actually better. I guess the only way I could really describe it would be awesome. It was like a mini General Assembly. Every night when it came time for service the Lord would just take over. I felt like every night like I got saved,santified,and feel with the Holy Ghost all over again. I think I kind of left with a vision. Christianity is a serious thing. Us members of the church have a more serious job then I think we think some times. We cannot be afraid to witness to people. We have to live the life that God would want us to live. We can no longer hold back. People if the Lord asks us to do something we shouldn't ask why like we sometimes do, we should do it without questioning the Lord. We all know there is nothing he doesn't know. So why question. I know I am going to try to become a better listener. I want to be a good servant unto the Lord. I want to be the greatest light I can be. I am tired of saying I'll try I want to start doing. I want to help others get what they need from the Lord. So please pray for me to become what God has planned for me to become. I know I will be praying for ya'll. Luv ya!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-6309388885985507977?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/6309388885985507977/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=6309388885985507977' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/6309388885985507977'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/6309388885985507977'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/08/iyc.html' title='IYC'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-599854336789369567</id><published>2007-08-21T21:12:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-08-21T21:43:43.124-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Depression</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Well today was fun. It was another half day at school today. I even made a new friend on the bus so today I didn't come home in silence. So it was cool. But after school I was kinda frustrated. The reason why is because are Internet providers are being a bunch of jerks. But anyways I don't think it would really matter because I think I am being ignored by this certain someone that obviously doesn't think I'm good enough to call. Just kidding. Maybe. Well I guess it is kinda weird because one week I talk to her every day and now I feel like old news. I guess I just miss the special feeling. Well I guess I will get over it though so no hard feelings. And anyways I wouldn't want anybody to be feel sorry for me. I guess I just had to come to back to reality. I guess I should get use to stuff like this happening to me. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Cuz&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;every time&lt;/span&gt; I start having fun or living what seems to be like a dream it always ends with a nightmare. I know &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;ya'll&lt;/span&gt; it stinks. And anyways I thought it was about time for another some what sad blog. So do &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;ya'll&lt;/span&gt; like the pattern I got going on. So here goes another fantastic interesting somewhat depressing &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;blog&lt;/span&gt; from the amazing, Dr. Pepper loving weight lifting &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;machine&lt;/span&gt;, over excited Bro.M.A.Stephens.

I think I should take more breaks from the computer. I feel so much more special now. I feel all weird knowing that I have now been called somebodies man. But its a good feeling and I like it. I like it a lot actually. Its  so cool. I can't believe I've actually gotten somebody jealous about me. Stuff like that usually never happens. But I can not believe how much I've been talked about and not really have nothing to do with it. Oh my goodness, I think I could get used to this. I know nothings official yet but I don't think I've ever felt so taken. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt; Well I'd like to thank everybody for praying for me. I feel even more special when I read about everybody praying for me. And I greatly appreciate it.

I think it is a little more me. Well at least from what all I've been doing lately.I think it is pretty cool. Friends have already been telling me they like it. So I guess I did pretty good. I was kinda scared I'd be telling off on myself on what I've been doing but then I realize that I've already told off on myself on my blog so my meez couldn't really make it any worse. Ok I'm gonna quit acting retarded and get serious. Well at least as serious as I can get. Which by the way isn't  much. So as I was saying I like my meez and I hope you do too. And if you don't will I don't know what to say. Here goes another amazing blog from the infamous Michael Stephens.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt; Oh and by the way pray for my school year I am kinda worried. I don't know how the dress code is gonna affect this school year. It is really strict and I have a pretty good feeling that my peers at school aren't gonna like it. So pray not only for me but for the people enforcing the dress code. I'm really worried for their safety which is weird since this is school that I'm talkin about but I know how dangerous my school can get.If you want an example last year after Virginia Tech my school had a bomb threat there after. So I could probably use all the prayer I can get.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-6496893885918731934?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/6496893885918731934/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=6496893885918731934' title='15 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/6496893885918731934'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/6496893885918731934'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/08/my-new-meez.html' title='My new Meez.'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>15</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-2590443538552222125</id><published>2007-08-10T13:54:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-08-11T19:12:02.247-05:00</updated><title type='text'>To be continued....</title><content type='html'>Well I had a bunch of fun the other night. It started with me getting up at 7:30 in the morning and getting ready for my day out with Rachel and her family. I ended up kinda &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;wasteing&lt;/span&gt; my time with getting up that early &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;cuz&lt;/span&gt; they &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;didn'ty&lt;/span&gt; pick me up until about 11:00. So they ended putting me through about 2 hours of country music and 30 &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;mins&lt;/span&gt; of a scary show. Not to mention that I was &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;starvin&lt;/span&gt; during my wait. I was so excited that I woke up without an alarm and them waited for &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;wat&lt;/span&gt; seemed like forever for them to come and get me . But when they came and got me I had a bunch of fun. We had a lot of fun at the mall.

First I went and played volleyball with Kasey,Rachel,Brad,Bekka,and Matthew.Then all the other VLB's came to play with us.Then I went with Brad and Rachel to Providence. When we first got their I thought I was going to be depressed because that was one of the last places I was with Damon. But thanks to Sister Rachel and her cute laughter got my mind off of things.Sis.Rachel and bro. Brad are so much fun to be around.I am so glad to have friends like them.Even when we are doing nothing sis.Rachel will laugh and it makes everything more fun seems like.I think that womans laugh will cheer up anybody. I think it is impossible to be depressed around those people.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#3333ff;"&gt;P.S.I hope ya'll are happy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1136810952534253079-3820007256364973371?l=michaelastephens.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/feeds/3820007256364973371/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1136810952534253079&amp;postID=3820007256364973371' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/3820007256364973371'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1136810952534253079/posts/default/3820007256364973371'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michaelastephens.blogspot.com/2007/07/finally-another-blog.html' title='Finally another blog.'/><author><name>Michael</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11862889942438426083</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136810952534253079.post-5406499064909927541</id><published>2007-07-26T21:08:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2007-07-26T21:17:40.973-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Yahoo messenger.</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Well it looks like I have a instant messenger thingy now.
