alright, i promise i won't be quiet as long.

got my first at 19. Its Hebrew writing under my left arm. It's says "Yahweh", which was the first name given to God in the Bible. Moses asked God what he should tell the people when they asked the name of the person who sent him. God said, "I am", translating to Yahweh.

above that I have a traditional swallow.

Matthew 6:25-27
"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?

first detailed piece i have. i've got no good picture of it.



you can barely see the head of it.

anyways, the piece i got after that is pretty personal. long story short, i had my mom ditch me on my 21st birthday. she had divorced my step dad, met another man (kinda, she went to college with him), stole 1000+ bucks from me, and took my 2001 Ford Ranger and moved to Texas....without telling me.

at this time i had no job because i was constantly touring with my band. so it was impossible, and i had absolutely no money and no car. couldn't get a job because i had no car. couldn't get a car cause i had no job. anyways, after i got back on track i got a traditional ship on the back of my arm that reads, "Calm Seas Don't Make Sailors". I put so much time and detail on this thing, making sure it was perfect. it's placed on the back of my arm, right next to the sparrow and hebrew.




then last but not least. i have a leg sleeve. it's Jesus and Peter walking on water. Paraphrased, Jesus walks out to the boat, Peter sees Him and wants to join his Master out on the water. Jesus called him out. As long as he kept his eyes on Him, we was walking, but the waves and the storm caused him to take his eyes off Jesus and become more concerned about what was going on around him. He began to sink, and calling out to Jesus, He reached down and grabbed him.

It's my favorite story in the Bible. We think all this stuff matters, and we worry about all these things, but the only purpose we have is to give everything we have to Him. And if we are not looking to Him for guidance and help, then we are wasting our time.

But God doesn's want to give us a list of rules to go by. In fact, He's pretty vague. This isn't about morals or ethics. This isn't about a culture war. It's about a relationship with Almighty God. He loves you and wants nothing more than a relationship with you, not to tell you what to do all the day. Obedience will follow instinctively just as you would treat a mother or father.

I spent 21 and a half hours on this piece, and was the worst pain you can imagine. At one point he went down to two needles on my knee cap. and it also drops down to right on top of my ankle as well as across my achilles tendon.







trust me, the pictures don't do this baby justice.


Here is the passage of Jesus and Peter.

25During the fourth watch of the night Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. 26When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. "It's a ghost," they said, and cried out in fear.

27But Jesus immediately said to them: "Take courage! It is I. Don't be afraid."

28"Lord, if it's you," Peter replied, "tell me to come to you on the water."

29"Come," he said.

Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 30But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!"

31Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. "You of little faith," he said, "why did you doubt?"

32And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. 33Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God."





Oh yeah, and this one!
