2016 Autumn Journal

Leif Ericsson Day

Sunday, October 9th, 2016

So, not only is today Leif Ericsson Day but it is also my eldest brother's birthday. He is eight years older than me and if it was not for him I would not have been born.

Steve Burns is 43 today. He is widely known as Steve from Blue's Clues. Many believe that he left the show because he took drugs and later on died in a car accident because of it. He really left the show because he was balding and he went on to pursue a career in music. Here is a more recent picture of him



“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
– John 15:5 (NIV)
"This should challenge and relieve us at the same time. The challenge is that we are to remain in Christ. Fellowship with God is not just a morning or evening event that lasts a few minutes; it is a reality that we are to cultivate all day. The relief comes from the fact that when we do remain in Christ, the realities of God’s kingdom will fill the world around us. We don’t have to “make it happen”, we only need to focus upon Christ Himself, and He will make our path straight." - Dave Whitehead

The song of the day is I'm An Albatraoz by AronChupa. I first heard this song while perusing through some dubstep music and I loved the song instantly. The video does not belong to me. If you would like to suggest a song, please do.

I have no prayer requests for today. If you are in need of prayers please do not hesitate to tell me. I would love to pray for you. Soar on, Eagle Army!
