These are a few of my favorite things:
1. Friends that I can count on to keep me awake during long drives
2. Conversations with friends who really "get me"
3. Long dark drives on clear nights. Especially when I have a ton on my heart that I've got to lay out before Christ. Sometimes I have so much I want to say to God and I just sit there and nothing comes out. Tonight was a bit different, I didn't even make it the 2 minutes from the house to the gas station before I was crying. I was frustrated, scared, clueless, longing, thankful, and excited all at the same time and for about 2 hours that all manifested itself in some songs and prayers that were coming from deep within me tonight. It was the best honest and open connection I've had with God in a long time. Honestly:
-I really wish I knew what was next
-I really wish I was part of a passionate church
-I really wish I could hear God more clearly
-I really wish I had 4 more hours in a day
I'm wokring on laying down what I can't do anything about and taking step to improve what I can. God has been so good to me for the past 22 years, I know He won't fail me now.
Its 12:18 a.m. on Monday, March 16th, 2009. This marks the beginning of a week of 3 mid-terms, 2 quizzes, and a research paper. It's going to be hardcore and awesome. With the strength of Jesus Christ I will kick some college booty this week (roughly paraphrased Phil 4:13).
