Basketball, Basketball, Basketball

This week has really been filled with basketball. I’ve been at camp everyday, and then on Wednessday, we went straight from there to a game vs. The Community School. We won on an inbound play from me to Corbin. It was pretty sweet if you ask me.

We had camp again today, and then practice afterwards.

I’m going on vacation tomarow, to the awesome North Georgia Mountains with my Mom’s family. And let me tell you, I really need the break because I am totally exhausted. My great-grandpa bought a mountain up there 60 years ago. He picked out the best lot, and built his house. Since he owned the whole mountain, he decided to keep the 5 lots surrounding his house so make sure he always has a good view. On one of the lots, he built a tennis court that we can play on…totally awesome. So we are going up there to hang out with all my Mom’s extended family for 5 days. It’s going to be awesome.

I probabally won’t update while i’m up there, unless I can drum up some internet-access. But don’t bet on it because there aren’t exactly alot of WiFi hotspots in Rabun Gap, Georgia.

If you know what I mean

Taking Life For Granted

Saturday- I spent most of the day at New Smyrna Beach with my family. I have to say that we had a blast. I skimboarded with Sarah and Kyle for almost 3 1/2 hours. If you don’t know this already, New Smyrna Beach is awesome for skimming anyways, but on Saturday it was better than ever.

Sunday- We had yet another awesome service at UPC. The worship band did an amazing arrangement of “Open the Eyes of my Heart Lord” with this walking Bass line, it was pretty sweet. Then I went to TNL where we are going through a series based on the popular TV show Lost.

Monday- I mowed yards with Fronzi until 2:30, and then hung out with the family for the rest of the day.

This weekend I realized how lucky we are. I mean how many teenagers in Third-World countries would kill for a weekend like this? But for almost everyone in America (and certainly everyone that I know) this would be an average or maybe slightly above-average weekend. For some crazy reason, I take the life that I live for granted.

And I definately shouldn’t

Pimp My Room

These last two days, mom my has given each of the Delk kiddos to do whatever we want with our rooms. But, of course, we have to do all the work. So I have been painting, framing and hanging posters, and setting up my sound system.

Some pics my new and improved crib:

Uncomfortablenessss

Yesterday morning I left the house at 6:55 for a 7:37 tee-time at Deer Run Country Club with my dad. We played 18 holes and then had lunch in the clubhouse. It was awesome getting to spend some time with him, because we have both been really busy lately. Then I met with Paul, the Youth Pastor at UPC, and we hung out for an hour or so. Then I went to TNL, where Paul led a discussion on why we, as Christians, need to allow God to make us uncomfortable.

When we are comfortably sitting on a Lazy-boy, in our Air-Conditioned house, drinking Mountain Dew (A Delk family favorite), and watching the World Cup, we are not forced to rely on God for our every need. We feel like we can keep our lives running smoothly as long as everything is going our way. But when God brings hard times upon us (Losing a loved one, Losing a job, etc.), we finally get it through our dense little minds that we can’t make it on our own.

And that’s why being uncomfortable rocks

Sorry everybody, but this another David Crowder post…

My sister downloaded the song Foreverandever etc. off their new album A Collision, and it pretty much rocks. The lyrics of the chorus have really hit me these last few days:

I’m finding everything I’ll ever need
By giving up gaining everything
Falling for You for eternity

Too often in my life I start believing the world’s lies about what’s important in life. I begin to strive for popularity, acceptance, wealth, and success–All the things that the Bible tells me aren’t important. These lyrics explain the true fulfillment we will find when we “give up gaining everything”. In other words, if we stop trying to obtain popularity, acceptance, wealth, success, etc., and “fall for Christ for eternity”, then we will be truly satisfied.

But as we all know, it’s easy to write about in a blog, or preach a sermon on, but it’s so much harder to assimilate into our already-full lives. Really, this whole issue comes down to whether or not we are willing to trust God to fulfill the promises that he’s made to us. But why is this so hard for us to do? Has God ever given us reason not to trust him?

I don’t think so

So my grandparents left today, and my parents got back yesterday.

They loved Hawaii, and brought us a bunch of stuff. Including a Ukulele for me. So I am now a Ukulelist or whatever you call it. But I have to say that I really like playing it alot. I got online the night I they got back and learned a bunch of chords. Then I just played all the worship stuff that I know from Youth Group Band on the Ukulele. I feel a Ukulele solo coming at TNL…

I heart Ukuleles

So I am pretty much addicted to David Crowder.

He (and is band) is one of the most talented music groups around, secular or Christian (though I don’t really now where to draw the line). They have been together for almost 9 years, and their veteran musicianship bears witness to that. Not only are they great musicians, but the lyrics are so powerful, true, and relative to what I think and feel.

One of my favorite songs is Intoxicating on his album Illuminate. Check out these lyrics:

Intoxicating You are to me
Illuminating You are to see
Truly breathtaking You are to breathe
Sending my head spinning You are, You see

And I’ve lost my mind, I’m sure I’ll find
Need to apologize for my
Lack of inhibition, for my belligerent condition
But with You this near I’m dizzy

Inebriating You are to me
Completely captivating You are, you see
Sending my world spinning You are, You see

And now I find a blurry line
Here between You and I
Raise the cup, drink ’til I’m full

Sing ’til I can’t, ’til my voice is gone
And my head is spinning…

…If I’m out of my mind it’s You, You
‘Cause I’m crazy in love with You, You
Inebriated by You, You
‘Cause I’m head over heels with You, You

The next song on the album is entitled How Great and here are the lyrics of the 1st verse:

I’m so bored of little gods

While standing on the edge of something large

While standing here, so close to You

We could be consumed

What a glorious day

I give up, I lay down

Rest my face upon this ground

Lift my eyes to Your sky

Rid my heart of all I hide

So sweet this surrender

Wow

Let me just get this out right now…they lost…

But they still played well. Kyle started at Catcher today and did a great job. After that, he was moved to Shortstop before coming in during the 4th inning to Pitch. He did a good job pitching as well. He struck out 2, walked 1, allowed no hits, and no earned runs. Batting, he had a strikeout, a walk, a hit, a fielders choice, 3 runs, and 5 steals.

Here’s what a fan told Kyle before he went up to bat:

“Hey Kyle, get on base so we can mess with the pitcher. Becuase it sure will be hard to pitch with you as a blur in the corner of his eye.”

Kyle proceeded to steal every base, including home…

We left the house at 5:45 this afternoon, and just got back around 10:45. Five hours at the ballpark, nice…

First Pitch: 8:08 PM (EST)

Kyle Delk is starting at Shortstop for the Oviedo NL All-Stars. After the starting pitcher allowed 5 runs to score with no outs, Kyle Delk comes in to pitch.

4 innings later…

Oviedo AL won the game, 10-0, but not without Kyle Delk showing them who’s boss.

He pitched 4 complete innings, allowing only 2 hits, and no earned runs. He had only 3 walks, all coming in the 4th inning. He pitched only 14 pitches in the 1st, 11 in the 2nd, and 5 in the 3rd, and 31 in the 4th. He threw 28 balls and 13 strikes, for a total of 57 pitches, a remarkable average of 14.25 pitches/inning.

Okay so maybe I’m a little biased. But what can I say, he’s my brother! Yes, they lost, but Kyle played like the All-Star that he is.

Next Game: Friday, June 15 7:30 PM

I pretty much have Baseball Fever.

My brother is on the 10U All-Star team for Oviedo Babe-Ruth and his tournament starts this Thursday. He’s just an all-out incredible baseball player. He loves it. He loves playing baseball, watching baseball, and anything that has to do with baseball. (He logs on the MLB.com every morning and checks all the scores from the games that he wasn’t allowed to stay up to watch the night before. And as if you didn’t know, we are HUGE Braves fans, so our family never misses a game.) So this is a really cool experience for him to have the opportunity to play in an extremely competitive tournament and learn alot about the game at the same time.

(As if that wasn’t enough, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are going to Omaha. Oh yes, GT is headed to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska [They play Friday at 7:30 on ESPN2]).

So anyway, back to my brother. He’s first game is on Thursday vs. the other Oviedo 10U team. If they win, they advance to the next round and play Saturday morning at 11. If they lose, (And let’s hope they don’t) they play Friday at 7:30.

It’s a rainy Monday here in O-Town.

Today I got up early and mowed some yards with Jonathan. And the whole time I was mowing, I was just thinking how stupid it was that it was raining, and how much easier our jobs would be if it wasn’t raining. For all you non-lawn-mowers, mowing in the rain is a royal pain. Especially blowing because all the grass and dirt sticks to the driveway and side walk…ugh…

But anyway, I was really mad that it was raining. But then I realized that I should really be glad that it’s raining. Because without rain, no grass would grow, which means there would be no business, which means no money for me, which means Ryan is poor. Not good. So actually, the rain was a good thing. But after I thought about it some more, I discovered that the real reason I was mad was not because it was raining, because I don’t hate rain, but because it was raining at a inconvenient time for me. I was mad because God was in charge, and not Me. Which is totally ridiculous, because if I was in charge of my life, I would be in a world of trouble.

And that wouldn’t be good

There has been a request for the Sippy-Cup, and well, here it is. The very one that was brought to my by my beloved mother last night.

Haha

115007936117687173

Wow, what an awesome day.

For the summer, our church (UPC) has switched to just one service (At 10:30, which means more sleep!!). So anyway, since there is only one service, the whole congregation is worshiping together rather than in two separate services. In other words, 600-700 christians worship together under the one roof every Sunday morning and I get to experience it. The worship at our church is really enerjetic and upbeat, and with the whole congregation together, everything is taken to the next level. So today our worship team did this amazing version of Chris Tomlin’s Indrescribable and it gave a whole new meaning to that song. When we sung the chorus for the last time, all the instruments dropped out and we sang the last stanza of the last verse five or six times. Here are the lyrics:

Incomparable, unchangeable

You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same

You are amazing God You are amazing God

Wow, step back and think about these words. As I and 600 other christians sung these words this morning, it seemed like maybe, just maybe, we actually believed what we were singing. When we finished the song, our worship leader (An extremely talented Singer/Songwriter named Jonathan Noel, http://www.jonathannoel.com) broke down and began to cry. He understood the reality of the words that we were singing. He understood how truly incomparable, unchangeable, and amazing our Lord and Savior is.

Last night, my sister Sarah and I were in my room reading (I was reading The Genesis Code by John Case, great book) and I heard my mom walk by my door. So I said,
“Hey Mom, could you bring me some water, just like old times?!?” (When I was younger, every night I would ask my mom to bring me some water before I went to bed)
So my mom comes back with a sippy cup that has monkeys all over it.
And she says, “Here, just like old times!”
And she hands it to me, all the while laughing her face off.
They she says, “Oh, and…CHEERS!”
And she pulls out another sippy cup just like mine.

My mom pretty much rocks…

So here’s my first post on Blogger, how exciting.

This summer, I haven’t really done anything that exciting. But I have learned some pretty important stuff. Something I realized this week is that if you just take a little bit of time out of your day to do something for someone else, it pays off.

But this isn’t always as easy as it seems. Almost always, when you do something for someone else, it means that you have to sacrifice something. Maybe its time, maybe its money, or maybe its missing the big game. Though while you are helping someone out, it might not always seem like you made the best decision, the reprecussions of your actions are sure to pay off. Even if its just a simple “Thank you” from your neighboor, or just a nice note. Or maybe you don’t even get recognized for your actions and it seems like no one even knew what you did, but someone is always watching.

Just remember that.
