Life is a Journey

I am a Star Wars fanatic and I am a follower of Christ. The similarities between the Christian Faith and the Jedi Order have caused books to be written and I find it to be a great way to present my personal journey of faith as Jedi/Christian.

I know I am no longer a Padawan but somewhere in the midst of my knighthood my path got blurred, my faith had weakened, and I had almost lost hold of the purpose of the Jedi. Now equipped with the love of a family, a renewed hope with a purpose I am trying to find the my way back to the Order. My goal and desire is to be a Knight worthy of the honor, blessing and title of the Order. I Knight walking by deeds, words and power as I strive and grow into what the Masters have called me to be.

My Journey has not been easy and I have stumbled, struggled,
faltered, fell, even at times given up. However the Force and many of the Orders Knights and Masters haven't given up on me. So this is were you can join me in the very midst of my journey. That is the purpose of this blog. To be a place where others can join me in the journey that lies in the places somewhere between Padawan And Master. I hope to share the insight and words that touch my soul and catch hold of my intellect and my heart. To expose the things I fear and those things that spur me forward. It is my journey and I welcome you along.

Finishing Strong..

We are in the last 29 days of the 90 day man challenge. I started out strong had lost close 14 lbs in the first 30 days was completing 80% or more of my goals. However most of October can be summarized as an epic fail.

We made it through OSL and that was about the only Goal I completed during that time. I have barely walked because of lack of motivation and issues with my knees. My eating habits have slipped terribly. I have been walking around with my head hanging low so to speak, with a heart filled with sadness and defeat. But not anymore...

I am recommitting myself for the last 28 days to finish strong. Going back to my goals and walking them out daily. Join me in this journey and see me finish strong.

    He who is in me is greater than he who is in the world.

    This is my prayer for you, Kenton... That He who is in you, our Lord, will reveal Himself as stronger than the enemy in our lives - and that you will allow Him to! I'm praying that the next 28 days will open up your heart and mind to understand how to depend on Him in a greater and deeper way.
