A Quick note for Newcomers
Thanks so much for visiting this blog. I would really encourage you to go in the archives and read my first entry “About me – the Fuller Version.” I am an upfront person, so let me be abundantly clear: I am writing as a Christian, a follower of Jesus Christ, who is the Son of God, the second person of the trinity. Further, I believe that the Bible is God’s special, inspired revelation of Himself to us. I believe it is entirely true and completely perfect (2 Tim 3.16). That said, if you are not a Christian or do not believe in the total inspiration of the Bible, please feel free to comment and interact as much as possible. Also, feel free not to use abusive language or harass me or any that may read this blog. If you disagree, that is fine, but let’s all be civil. Abuse will not be tolerated! May the Lord help us to honor Him in all of our thoughts, speech, and actions!!!
Sincerely, the recovering Pharisee,
Aaron Hawk

About Me
- A-Hawk
- About Aaron Hawk, let’s see, where do I begin… duh… I am deeply in love with Jesus Christ!!! I strive to submit my will, my mind, my talents, and my all to Him… for He alone is Worthy!!! (Lord, I love you; help me to love you more!!!) For more info than this, see my post labeled “About me – the Fuller Version.” As always, I have maxed out the allowable space and don’t want to bore you with repetitive redundancy ;) -Aaron Hawk
BTW / FYI
Just fair warning about the way I write... Most of the time, when writing about something serious or meditative, I will write in one of two ways. One way, is to simply and explicitly state my thoughts as best I can, with all out in the open. The other is to use “stories” to “hide” what I’m saying, while “proclaiming” it to all at the same time. Thus, if a post appears to be a story, it probably contains a “hidden” meaning. Just a little teaser to spark the imagination, he he ;-)
Pictures
I’m a picture taking fool and often have my camera with me, though not always. I LOVE taking pictures, especially of God’s created beauty. However, I am no photographer, so please don’t expect professional results. As such, most of the pictures in this blog are ones that I have taken, though if I feel it will add to the point, I will use others.
I currently use a Sony DSC-H5 7.2 MP digital camera. It is a great point and shoot camera with tons of options and controls, but it is notably a step below SLR, which I do not feel skilled enough to use yet.

- (Ruth 2:8-9) 8 Then Boaz said to Ruth, "Listen carefully, my daughter. Do not go to glean in another field; furthermore, do not go on from this one, but stay here with my maids. 9 "Let your eyes be on the field which they reap, and go after them. Indeed, I have commanded the servants not to touch you. When you are thirsty, go to the water jars and drink from what the servants draw." (Ruth 2:22-23) 22 Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, "It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his maids, so that others do not fall upon you in another field." 23 So she stayed close by the maids of Boaz in order to glean until the end of the barley harvest and the wheat harvest. And she lived with her mother-in-law.
