Feel free to share some general information about yourself. Share whatever you're comfortable with-where you're from, favorite color, occupation, fave Bible verse, etc. I guess I'll start.

1 John 4
7Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

Zephaniah 3
17 The LORD your God is with you,
he is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
he will quiet you with his love,
he will rejoice over you with singing."

Luke 15
7I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.

Psalm 40
Psalm 73

~Age: 26
~Location: Wollongong, NSW Australia.
~Occupation: Poor university student. But I'll be a teacher after a year's more study.
~Favorite Color: Black
~Denomination: Non-Denominational
~Ministry Involvement: Nothing.
~Favorite Food: Meat, anything with meat. The more raw and bloody the better. I'm such a man!
~Favorite Band: Secular - Pearl Jam / Christian Contemporary - Paul Coleman Trio
~Favorite Holiday: ANZAC Day. It's like a war hero rememberance day in Australia. And I'm a peacenik. Go figure. I hate all other holidays - Christmas and Easter included.
~Interesting Factoid #1: My left arm and hand are stronger than my right and do most things with my left hand. But I'm not lefthanded. I was born a rightie.
~Interesting Factoid #2: I hate it when my mum rolls pairs of my socks into those little sock balls. When I'm at home by myself I throw all my socks in the drawer and grab them as I need them. They rarely match.
~Interesting Factoid #3: I lost over 15lbs in 2 weeks a few years back. So theoretically I should be doing infomercials says "Lose weight now - ask me how!!". As for why I'm not, keep in mind at the time I was 130lbs at the time.
~Interesting Factoid #4: I like walking. No one understands that I love walking everywhere. They are all just lazy.
~Interesting Factoid #5: It's Christmas Eve and haven't started wrapping my gifts yet. It's like this every year.
~Interesting Factoid #6: I've only ever cried twice during a movie (don't laugh fellas), and they were both in the same movie! It was The Shawshank Redemption. The first bit I cried at was while Brooks was let out of prison and his life on the outside. The second time was when Red was let out, but that was a happy cry when he hugged Andy at the end. Just thinking about it brings tears. :cry: I don't know why. I know I'm going to be a lonely old man like that one day.
~Interesting Factoid #7: The girls I think are attractive never believe me when I say so. They just think I'm a complimentary old guy. But I'm not, I have not given a compliment I didn't honestly mean. :holy:
~Interesting Factoid #8: I don't have a single talent to my name. Everything I do I fail at.
~Interesting Factoid #9: I used to have an Indian accent. I have never stepped foot on the Indian subcontinent, and don't have many friends with Indian accents. It came and went over a period of about a year.
~Interesting Factoid #10: I've been a pastrycook, an office manager, an electronic technician, and a computer programmer in my short working life. In a year I'll be able to add teacher to that list. If I fail at teaching, I think I might try my hand at a bit of rocket science and/or brain surgery.
~Favorite Bible Verse: Matthew 25:31-46 - No I'm not going to copy that parable out here!! It's the end of the age sheep and the goats one.
~Bible Translation: KJV. No, no, no....the Tyndale!! "Ye know not ye axe". :D Seriously, I have numerous versions at home, and I love them all in different ways and for different verses.
~Favorite Secular Novel: Clockwork Orange. Not the most upligting book, but the message of the book is sobering. Especially for when I get into a "holier than thou" attitude to other's actions.
