so i have been pretty stressed the last few months. i have a habit of hiding it, even from myself. but today i finally realized it.
whenever i get really stressed, i start experiencing serious stomache problems, heartburn, bad stomache aches (the kind that make you curl up..), gas and nausua.
so if you guys could pray for the stomache problems as well as a few things that i have really been stressed about
friends: some friends of mine are making some bad choices in relationships. i was their small group leader for 2 years so i feel somewhat responsible. i keep feeling like i need to talk to them but for some reason, every time i get around to it, i chicken out...
support: i have been home for almost a year and i only have 1/3rd of my month support raised. everyone keeps asking me when i plan on returning and everytime it it just makes me feel like a failure because i just cant seem to get it going, either because im not doing enough, or because i am not spiritually ready. everyday i think to myself, how long is my roommate going to let me stay here and where am i going to go if he puts a deadline down.
there is a girl i left in england. i really really want to persue a relationship with her, but she never returns any emails or whatever. i think about her everyday and pretty much yell at God everyday, asking why not.

anyway, little rant, but i needed to get it off my chest.
please keep me in prayer, i know i live a high stress life (work and ministry take up alot of my time) and i have never been able to properly handle stress. it has always overwhelmed me because i never look at myself and my needs.

If someone ever charged you with being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you?

Will pray for you mate.

I shared some stuff at cell tonight, on the Beatitudes (series we're doing in cell). Matt 5:1-4:

 1And having seen the multitudes, he went up to the mount, and he having sat down, his disciples came to him,
 2and having opened his mouth, he was teaching them, saying:
 3`Happy the poor in spirit -- because theirs is the reign of the heavens.
 4`Happy the mourning -- because they shall be comforted.

wow dude. I had no clue. Here's a hug  hug I am praying.

as far as the symptoms go, you should invest in some Pepto Bismol. I lil pink should do you some good. or some Milk Of Magnesia or whatever it's called.

Just looking out for you.  Cool

the coolest thing about soundboarding (djing), unlike surfing or skateboarding, is that you can give other people a ride rather than just yourself.

Hey Alex, get your self some ginger root and dried papaya(look for it without the sugar and maybe without sulfur as well).  if you can't get it dried, blend it up with water and honey(local and raw best).  if you get gassy or nauseous, rub your palms together, maybe even with a little shredded ginger root and rub your dominant hand clockwise into your abdomen, as high as right under your diaphragm and as low as a couple finger-widths below your belly button.  if you get diarrhea, rub your hand cool hands counterclockwise into your stomach.

lean into for like 20 secs, hold for 10, and lean back out of it during the next 30
