Good quotes from the day

"seems to easy to call you savior, but not close enough to call you God
so as I sit and think of the words I can mention to show my devotion...
I want to fall in love with you!"   - Jars of Clay

"The point is I just don't know what the lover knows; I just can't see the artificial obvious that those in the know construct." -Annie Dillard

Today as I was laying on the south lawn gazing up at the corner of FBC I realized why I love detailed art.  The longer I look the more I see, the deeper I'm drawn in, and the farther away the rest of the world seems.  It pulls my focus in from a big broad mess to the center of all beauty and created things.  It is very seldom that I can find a place where I am actually still before God, but I'm glad Ben showed up to work late today, I really needed the 20 minutes to enjoy the grass and architecture.
