How I Unwind

A hard day's night.
Pandora is set to Explosions in the Sky
And some Tetris to unwind the mind.
Darkness around and stillness to reflect upon.
Opening my heart to hear that voice.
And to see what's to come yet unseen.

This How I unwind.

The Soloist- good film that needs to be watched again since its so deep and spiritual.

If you don't see the Christ figure in the film, then you were probably drugged up while watching it or something...

Seeing Christ in other people... possible when you open up the eyes of your heart.
Are people clearly seeing Christ through me? through you?



Anyways, I just got an e-bill from the school. 1.50 in library fines...
Seriously?
I kinda want to see if I will be prevented to graduate and walk stage if I don't pay it.
Wait and see.

Paul

Lately, I have been learning much from the life of Apostle Paul.

How all his relationships were Christ-centric; realizing how all of my relationships need to be this way (ROMANS1:11&12).

How he impacted and changed the lives of people by allowing Christ to be experienced through his life. Being critical of letting God's Spirit direct my actions and life so to glorify Him better.

Finally, how God used his past, present, & future all for His glory and greater purpose for our lives when we give it all up to Him and see what He can do through it all. If I am not doing this, then what then is the true purpose of it all?


...yup, its simply chasing after the wind.

Dark Waters

*

We can see so far across the sky
We can see so far from here
Across the water
We can see the tops of the trees
I'm holding my arms out steadily
I'm keeping my first secure

To keep me from sinking
To keep me from falling to sleep
Without even a wonder
In this evening, just fading away

And if the water comes up to our necks
And it's easier just to give in
I will remember what I learned before the flooding came
I will remember who I was before the walls gave way.

To keep me from sinking
To keep me from falling to sleep
Without even a wonder
In this evening, just fading away

*12/2007- Out at sea in the last days of '07

a reminder of what has never changed and of what has always been

"Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice,
And be gracious to me and answer me.
When you said, 'Seek My face', my heart said to You,
'Your face, O Lord, I shall seek'
Do not hide Your face from me,
Do not turn Your servant away in anger;
You have been my help;
Do not abandon me nor forsake me,
O God of my salvation!
For my father and my mother have forsaken me,
But the Lord will take me up."
~Psalm 27:7-10 (NASB)~

Though this psalm is familiar, I came across it and was taken aback by simply how deep and profound these few verses are.
The last couple of weeks have been interesting. Put simply, I was in and out of feeling like an emo-kid. At this stage of the game, there's a lot that needs to be done before I make my exodus from college life and a lot of uncertainty with life.
But during these past couple of weeks has been when God's voice has been so much clearer to me than in times past where I'm left guessing. Now more than ever am i hearing the voice calling me to stop, get on my knees, and pray; To go up to a stranger and serve them; to sit and speak with a high school kid sitting alone about life; and to simply shut up and stop worrying.
Getting into ministry again... its like renewed conviction about everything I do or say and what I do not do and do not say.

I've realized that Character is just like your neck- Don't break it.

Every day. Every moment. I am being reminded of just how much God blesses me.
How He has been my help in time past especially when things were much more messed up. And ultimately how He is always with me. When all else (parents, friends, car, money, LIFE) fails, who will remain to take me in? to care for me and guide my steps?...it takes makes me shutter and breathless just knowing that He truly is always there to love and show me the way.
No matter how much I am broken by all else "...the Lord will receive me"

other highlights...my dad got a job with Hitachi doing electronics again- Thanks God;), my sister will be at my final AGO banquet, my brother is in Bogota and will be in SD for my graduation, getting up at the barriacade during Sleeping Giant at Facedown Fest (railing paint rubbed off onto my jeans from the pressure) and saying wassup to Thommy afterwards. show#3...see you again SG!
