The Owl and The Sparrow.

This is my fable I wrote for my CW class, it's my first so please tell me what ya think of it.



    There was once a Sparrow who thought himself so needy he began to steal food from his neighbor. An Owl flew by one day and observed the Sparrow at his underhanded task. Curious at the Sparrow's actions he flew over and nested beside him.
     “Good day sir Sparrow, might I ask why you are stealing food from your neighbor in such a time of abundance?”
The Sparrow set his ill-gotten food aside to answer the Owl.
    “My neighbor hordes much more food then needed. In fact, he only has one hatchling while I have three! I do my chicks a service by not leaving them unattended for so long, and my neighbor doesn't even notice that the food is gone he has so much.” stated the Sparrow in a defensive tone.
    “Why indeed it does sound like a wise line of thinking, however could you yourself bear to lose one of your chicks I took unnoticed so that I may return to my hatchlings sooner?” The Owl asked as if it were a normal request.
        The Sparrow leaped up and down and fluttered his wings in astonishment and aghast. “You wish to feed one of my chicks to yours? That's murder!”
    “Is it? I merely wish to get home sooner like you are, and you have so many, how would you know?” The Owl spoke in a calm and correcting voice.
    “I- well..you see...” Stammered the Sparrow, keen on leaving the Owl's presence at the first opportunity that arose.
“ I can tell you see the fault in this line of thinking, I suggest you go home and reconsider your philosophy.” and with that the Owl took off leaving the Sparrow to mend his ways.
                                      The ends don't justify the means.

Theology Alive.

Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you. John 12:35 KJV
I was reading my copy of My Utmost for His Highest today and the topic was on theology of all things.let me give you the ESV version of that verse first. So Jesus said to them, “The light is among you for a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going. John 12:35 ESV So what is Jesus telling us in this verse? 
    Basically to apply knowledge we glean in our lives when we learn of it. and he wants us to learn it! Philippians 4:8-9 states: Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.
    Philippians tells us we should pursue what is right, true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, and commendable.That's no tiny list of adjectives there. but Jesus warns if we don't apply what we have learned it will mean nothing.
Oswald Chambers expounds upon it much better then I can. "The second you waive the question of sanctification or upon which any other thing upon which God gave you life, you begin to get dry rot in your spiritual life. Continually bring out the truth into actuality; work it out in every domain, or the very light you have will prove a curse." It's not enough to just learn it, you have to live it. To apply it. Oswald continues saying: "If you say you are sanctified, show it. The experience must be so genuine that it is shown in the life."
That is the true purpose of theology, but unless we live it, we're no better then the Pharisees holding on to our knowledge like it is the thing that saves us. A commentator showed me I should elaborate on this, It is not our application of  theology that saves us, only the grace of God can do so but we must avoid thinking as if our own knowledge and actions can save us.

Does it need a title?

Well, lately I've been neglecting this little page of story sharing. Not really sure what to put here right now, or heck who would be even reading this. (Besides you friend/stalkers.) Updates: Hmm, well been getting back into the groove of school again,  and other such things but lately I haven't been able to shake off this damn form of nostalgia, the kind that utterly paralyzes you and you don't even know why, or what you're trying to get back to.and lately it's been clawing me up from the inside, I feel like fighting some great battle, but there's nothing to fight. Maybe when I get my job application back and hopefully if accepted will shake up the dullness of life right now.

Fire trucks and their evil lights.

So basically it's 4:58 now and I can't go back to sleep, why? You'll find this quite amusing.
Before I managed to doze off I had looked at a book my brother was reading about UFO's and how flashing lights are accompanied by them. So as I'm awakened by evil evil lights, in my sleep deprived mental state I had a mini panic attack resulting in a very ungraceful fall from my bunk bed. So...yeah. I'ma try and sleep now.

Aeon. They Suck.

So yeah, first post.

Today I make history. Well, at least for myself. I've been meaning to start a blog of sorts for a while now. A couple people have expressed I should write a blog about the things I like to talk about, posts about issues, God's word, and how his story affects us all. I might share bits of my part in the grand story, I might share another story all together.

I know what you're probably thinking right now. "Quest Log? oh jeez, this guys a loony who plays to many video games." So, let me define the point of this "Quest Log". It's more a journal of sorts. My quest is to pursue the kingdom of God, for his glory, so naturally I feel inclined to record it, share it,and give insight into some things.
