BeWise is Back!

noreply@blogger.com (BW:Roberts) — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 03:03:00 +0000

Part of having a compulsive nature is you will be totally into something and then....not...be.

But now BeWise has a new look, a new url (www.bwroberts.net), and a new attitude, complete with my twitters and some spiffy blogs to read.

I'll be posting some meaty blogs in the coming years, hopefully :)

It's good to be back...

Asian Game Shows: 2/5

I used to cry every week while watching this show at brandon's house...tears of hysterical laughter. Most Extreme Elimination Challenge definitely makes the cut, I would show a clip with the commentary but I couldn't find one that was PG enough for this blog, so you'll have to search youTube at your own risk.

Oh Yeah, BTW, I went on a cruise....

noreply@blogger.com (BW:Roberts) — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 00:42:00 +0000

...just this past week to the the Cayman Islands with an amazing group of friends. My good friend Dominic Russo - Crusade Evangelist to the Nations and tannest one in the pic below - is getting married in May so all his groomsmen and he took a cruise, not bad, I will now let the pictures show our jubilant time:

South Beath, Miami: Pre-Voyage

The Norwegian Jewel: The One with Graffiti on it was ours

Life is hard in Cozumel, Mexico

The boys: aka SoJourners

Our Fav Past Time: Eating til Explosion of the Intestine

Me, Dom, and the best man: Up and Coming Rapper J-Rus

Side Note: I highly recommend anyone who likes cheap, lazy vacations where you can eat a lot to take a Cruise, they're awesome!

The Encounter Winter Camp was a spectacular success, God truly showed up in a mountain-moving way. The podcast will be up in the Pulse Cast shortly. I hope all the parents who braved the Sunday White-outs have now gotten themselves, students, and vehicles home safely :)

Separate Note: AT&T is customer service. I get a $14 charge, call them, they take it off no questions asked, policy explanations, anything. Go AT&T or Cingular or whoever you are now. Sprint should learn from you.

Anyone have an interesting bill story?

What Price Freedom? [4(finally!) of 4]

noreply@blogger.com (BW:Roberts) — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 00:52:00 +0000

In case you hadn't guessed it already, these multiple series blogs don't really work for me, I think I am in a lil too scatter brained, so next time I will be sure to write them all ahead of time or just spit it all out at once.

So if both my readers are still actively involved in my blogging, I want to finish with the 4th part of freedom:

The Freedom of Sacrifice

Lets review, we choose freedom, we risk freedom, we serve for freedom, and, lastly, we sacrifice for freedom. We can never truly be free without sacrifice, whether it is ours or the sacrifice of another.

We make the choice, we take the risk, we compromise to reach freedom, but a simple act of service in pursuit of your freedom isn't enough. Your freedom lies past your point of knowledge and comfort and reason and previous success. To grasp your freedom, whatever it might be, you are going to have to leave something behind: a sacrifice is required.

For my example I want to use the only person that has made the ultimate sacrifice and obtained the ultimate freedom: Jesus Christ.

The choice was made, go to earth and lead a sinless life. The risk was taken, he was mocked and beaten and ridiculed. He was the pinnacle of servanthood, even saying that the path to leadership starting with being a servant first. And then, of course, he made the sacrifice; he gave up dignity for shame, comfort for torture, and life for death all for crimes he never committed and with all the power to change is situation in the midst of it. For what freedom? Yours, mine, every human on earth. We are already free, the price was paid, and we could never repay.

True freedom isn't political, physical, or emotional but spiritual. Our freedom doesn't rest in our circumstances, but in our hearts, because even if we achieve the first three steps to freedom we still have to produce a sacrifice that is never enough, which is why Christ came to give it for us. Holy blood, spilled for the freedom of the world and the establishment of His kingdom. What price freedom? The price is everything, and the reward is beyond imagination.

It's good to be free, there is is
