phew, that was a lot of hard work. i just worked really hard for about three hours on a paper. i'm not done yet, but i can finish it tomorrow in my off periods. i'm pretty happy with it, i think it's good. i honestly didn't think i was gonna get it done or if i had the stregnth and the will to, but once again, God provided. i actually was having fun. and i'm a dork saying that, i know, but it's the truth. i literally sat here and wrote for like four hours and just listened to Christian music. it rocked my world man!
one of the songs i listened to reminded me of this story this awesome speaker a couple of weekends told us. it's an amazing stroy and testimant of how we're called to help those around me. it's really touching, and i hope i have the opprotunity to use it some day, b/c it's powerful. he was a really cool guy and was so about God and it was easy to see. absoultly awesome, man. i'm being blown back again...
and Brie also introduced me to this other song. it's sooooo beautiful, and it's like the most poetic thing i have ever heard in my life. it's amazing. i read it over and over and i listen to it over and over and every time i'm just like... geez, that's awesome. and i don't even understand it all the time it's so powerful. it goes like this:i built another temple to a stranger i gave away my heart to the rushing wind i set my course to run right into danger i sought the company of fools instead of friends- you know i've been unfaithful with lovers in lines while you're turning over tables with rage of a jealous kind i chose the gallows to the aisle thought that love would never find hanging ropes will never keep you and your love of a jealous kind love of a jealous kind- tryin' to jump away from rock that keeps on spreading solace in the shift of the sinking dand i'd rather feel the pain all too familiar than be broken by a lover i don't understand cause i don't understand- one hundred other lovers, more, one hundred other alters if i should slow my pace and finally subject me to grace and love that shames the wise betrays the hearts deceit and lies and breaks the back of foolish pride
i'm tellin you dude... God... it's still comin. and it's still awesomely amazing. and i'm still lovin it despite not understanding it.
and ya know what, i get to see lane in one day! i'm so excited. i love that chick!
