Nothing much about today,Craig came over to my house to work on the Science Project, but yet...we ended up playing baskbetall with Mat at the school. This morning I sucked horribly at basketball and I'm not really sure why...Then we headed down to WLAC (West London Alliance Church) to go and play some sports. We started with basketball...yet again and for some reason I became a natural shooting guard. I sunk a lot of shots from three point range. Then we switched over to some group games, they were..enjoyable? Next we played some hardcore dodgeball, two games, I was the last person alive in the last game. It was all going good until I got shot in the face by a ball, that's when the game ended. Rev.Mackness then shared a message and we went to go play volleyball. I will never speak of what happened during volleyball again. Next was more basketball and more shots :D All in all a good night.
So...Good Night!

Hey all,
Horribly bored, it is now...12:39am, tired. This morning I woke up horribly late and ran around my house trying to get ready for school, and @ school I fell asleep in two of my classes...embarassing? No. Fun? YES! We watched a really crappy movie in french today about some farm and some guy on the farm and some guy on the farm that plants roses and is a fruit. Meh.
After school I went over to Mat's and we finally beat a level in Halo Co-Op. Halo is the best game EVAR!
Anyway, too tired to type more.
Later.

Today, nothing much has happened. Shortened day, I failed to wake from my sleep, still late start? It didn't feel very late and I was certainly not refreshed. Math is now creeping up with me, I've decided to begin to take notes on everything the teacher says so that I can study it at home. Now I'm spiritually exhausted, God's done so much in my life already just in the past week, my soul is tired. Please pray for rest for my soul.
I got a game from Mat, Medal of Honour, Allied Assault, strange only because it crashes on my computer lol. Nothing much to say today except for please pray for me.
Love in Him,
Gavin

*sigh* Something had taken hold of me since TC, I dunno what to call it, but my mom said that she felt it ever since I came back. A certain level of anger inside me, I've found out now that it's just God opening up that bottle of emotions that I've kept ever since I was young, my energies were so pent up and so intense that I lashed out at my family. My Dad heard of this and in an effort to help me and support me he wrote me a note. It read:
"May God Bless My Beloved Son.
Only Under Bad Weather Will You Find A Good Captain"
I read that in the way to school, and in first period today, I almost cried, my energies were so misdirected, there was no way I could stay mad at my family, my energies were wiped, and my anger gone. Everything turned out amazing, for in my darkest hour, when I thought the endless stream of anger could not end, God spoke to me, for now there was no barrier to muffle His voice. All he said was two words that I'll never forget: "I'm here." After that, the anger was lifted, my bottle of emotions finally emptied, and for the first time I could ever remember, I was happy really, truly happy.
Today a speaker came to our school by the name of George Chuvalo, talked to us about drug addiction and how his three kids all died from it, his wife commited suicide. I wanted to cry to that, at lunch I killed Martin at fooseball, 7-2, he said that he all the goals I scored, he scored. Fourth and fifith periods were OK, no big deal. I have massive amounts of math homework....Gonna do it now, Later all.

Before I go in for today's entry, I just need to tell everyone. In talking to my fellowship on Saturday, I've realized that God's given me this awesome gift to see into the spiritual realm I can see demons and angels. Of course this is not always the case, it goes in and out sometimes. But at TC 2004 this year, final worship, I felt demons and angels. During a meditation time, I felt two cold rushes of wind inside the closed sanctuary, the wind made me shudder and shake uncontrollably, after these two times, I prayed to God for protection, when I felt something patting me on the back, a pat of reassurance, it was warm and when I turned, there was nothing there. This is how I "discovered" my gift.
Scariest night of my life last night, while having a debate with my friend Josh, he said something along the lines of "God has no need for us". At that moment, a demon entered my mind and began to play around with my emotions and the way I perceived things, I said some things that I will never repeat, I was truly scared. After that, stepping out of my bathroom after taking a shower, the light in my hallway flickered a slight bit and for that instant it flickered, I felt a demonic presence, I could barely see it, but I'm sure it was there. That same night I called Josh again, and we prayed for the house, for God to drive the demons out and for them never to return. We also talked about the Full Armour of God, I have begun to piece my battlesuit on, piece by piece I feel myself gaining more strength in God.
But today was a tiring day, with badminton try-outs. I had too much homework and worked at it until 8. Also, during the course of this next month, I will and am trying to be the best example of a Christian as I can, hopefully I can draw more people to Christ through me. Anyway, after school was try-outs, my friends did well and so did I, nothing too much.
Pray for me.

Ohhh man, this is cool. Josh and Joe have come up with an idea for a website for LCAC or HYPE. I am so excited for this new development. Anyway, about my day...this morning I woke sooooo tired. I went to church and it seems as if Calvin and Carmen forgot they were doing Ushering so Joe and I took over for them. In Service today, a pastor for TEAM of Canada came to speak to us. (TEAM is an acronym for The Evangelical Alliance Mission) It was pretty good except for I couldn't stop falling asleep, then after Service we had Sunday School Class, and yet another pastor told us his testimony, I wanted to cry after that, but I was just so happy that he had found Christ. After Class we had going home time, and thats where I'm staying for most of tonight.

Hey everyone, I'm back in London now, and the "spiritual rush" of TC is starting to go away, but I'm perfectly fine. Though TC was an amazing experience and always is, I'm happy to know that when TC is over, God is still with me in my heart.
Well first off, we woke up this morning, twenty minutes after our goal time, we packed up and left Dave's house and headed on van one of the subway stations, the one on Finch. Anyway, after much much waiting, we finally got to Union Station and took the Train back to London. Nothing much is happening now, except for now I'm waiting for Steph. (She got her G1 by the way.)

NEEEEEEEEEEEEE HOW! To all of you readers.
Today we tried to go out into the Toronto Area to go shopping..(yes, Josh, Jason, and Dave are all girls). Anyway, we took the bus and subway down to the mall, there we ate and shopped....Then we got lost in Downtown Toronto because Joe led us on a walk that lasted 6 hours. Fun? No. Eye opening? Definitely not. Tiring? OH YEAH.
Anyway, tomorrow is going home back to London time, I'll blog more later.

Wei wei, long time no talk, not that anyone even bothers to read my blogs anyway.
TC 2K4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Again, the highlight of this half year, over 300 Christians raising their voices to the heavens, what's there not to be excited about? Well, I won't go into detail (such is my style), but TC was always and will always be fun for me. Worship in all was amazing! Though this year there were a lot more fast songs, it brought a new depth to what I was used to (the slow songs with Chris) I liked it. The Sermons and such were alright, nothing TOO TOO special, there's a lot more I would like to elaborate on, but meh. The Workshops were fine also, not much to say about those, I THINK I fell asleep during one, there seems to be a giant gap in my memory...I think I fell asleep. My team was amazing!!!!!!
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SILAS!!!!!
We didn't win, but meh, life was still good, I loved my team, see it was sorta funny because only me and a few other guys were able to mobilize the team to cheer and so forth, our cheer was...strange to say the least. I felt like I was telling the story rather than cheering. TC was too great, oh and Joe and I signed up to be TC Junior Team Captains for TC 2K5.
Watch for us, and keep praying.

Well, because of Joe's pokings, I'm blogging again.
K, so this is what is happening in my life. My marks are starting to drop rapidly and I'm scrambling to make it through this Semester. Life is going slow, cept for the fact that Jesse is coming to visit on Sunday, we're gonna jam. My improv tournament is in two days (Thursday for you lazy types), anyway I'm nervous but I'm sorry if I'm not blogging in a while.
