Belshazzar is dead


I started this blog with the idea that it wouldn't be annother self serving attention device but within a week I was posting junk. But it's all over now! I've read the writing on the wall and my time is up, my kingdom will be divided and given to annother (Dan 5) Belshazzar is dead. The holy goblets from the temple will not be used to get prostitutes drunk anymore. I'm going to use the things God has given me to advance his kingdom not to fall into a selfish trap. I'm sorry for all of you who want to know about me and what I'm thinking but this blog isn't gonna be about me anymore.

Eh, don't beat yourself up about it. I had a similar approach when I first started my blog but I gradually relaxed that requirement.

I'm not beating myself up I'm just taking a christ focused approach to this. And I appriciate your words of wisdom but don't tell me that I'll gradually grow out of being unselfish it's discourageing.

Jamie A. Grant said...

My apologies, I did not intend to discourage you at all. Be all you can be.

hey what do you mean you deleted junk? i thought you wrote this blog so that people can see what you are doing. and to encourage them to follow the gifts that God gave you.I LIKE that you wrote about personal things like you reminding yourself that God Has been there for you and Graffitti is your new passion that helps me to understand you better and somtimes God uses it to convict me or remind myself why i am here and what my purpose is lie in your peoms. i encourage to write whats on your heart. when i read about stuff that interest you i get a better understanding whats inportant to you and thanks God that you are who you are.But if you feel it's selfish pray and encouraged not discourage your doinf a wonderful job.

Cool, Tara. I couldn't have said it better myself. And I didn't, hence my previous apology. :)

If you want to see my poetry check www.myujamaa.org. I know you like reading about how many times a week I brush my teeth because your obsessed with me but not everyone wants to know that. Write what's on my heart? the heart is decietful who can know it? I'll write about what I want to write about - God and Graffiti

Dude, like, chill out, man. Tara and I are both big fans of yours. We're even bigger fans now that you have a blog and we look forward to reading what you have to say.

I'm "chill" I think that you can't hear the inflections in my voice when I type. I think you should check your tablet PC's speakers. It was really more of a whining tone. and just so I get this stright... you love me more cuz I have a blog?

Jamie A. Grant said...

You're correct, my speakers were off when I read your comments. And yes, we are even bigger fans because you now have a blog - because we know more about your life now.

queation isn't having a blog about stuff that matters to you spirtually and personally. it's not jsut about you it's what Gods doing in all aspects of life. ithought a blog is a journal thatyou express yourself with and thanks for that comment you said yo not very happy with it

What's in a blog? That by which we call a website is the very same thing. Who determines what's in a blog? I didn't know I had to tell everyone all the good things that are going on in the rest of my life. I don't see the big deal in the content. What comment? stating the fact that your obsessed with me? everyone knows that already.
