john scheer

John is a newly converted Eastern Orthodox follower of Christ who lives in Austin, TX with his totally brilliant and stunning wife Juanita. They have 0 children and 0 pets. Although Juanita says that John is just like snow-white when it comes to animals.

John is a manager at starbux (if only for the benefits), but was an architectural blacksmith prior to that. He misses that work very much but believes patience will pay off in the end and readily awaits to pounce on an opening in life to pick up his hammer again.

John is also very interested in the unceasing prayer of the heart, but fails miserably at executing the principle in his daily life. So he staggers on…

Creed:

“My Lord God, I have no idea where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I cannot know for certain where it will end. Nor do I really know myself, and the fact that I think I am following your will does not mean that I am actually doing so. But I believe that the desire to please you does in fact please you and I hope that I have that desire in all that I am doing. And I know that if I do this, you will lead me by the right road although I may know nothing about it. Therefore will I trust you always though I may seem to be lost and in the shadow of death, I will not fear, for you are ever with me and you will never leave me to face my perils alone.”
-Thomas Merton

That pretty much sums up the spin or state of this blog and my path right now…
