| yesterday sara and i went to six flags over Georgia. i had an obscene amount of fun!!! from the keys we saw flying off the new roller coaster Goliath, to the two black kids who followed us from ride to ride for an hour. it was awesome!!! for someone who used to hate roller coasters, i sure am crazy about them now. we had a blast.
then we went with tyler to watch The Breakup. it was funny, except the boyfriend used God's name in vain A LOT. you know, the G-D kind. i hate that. but overall the movie was pretty good.
i was informed this past week that i may have the pleasure to open the stage for a very incredible artist...but i won't say who yet...not until i hear for sure! but i'm really excited about it and hope it happens. but if you want to know...you'll have to keep an eye on my myspace music page because this will be my final xanga post. | | |
| louisville is a pretty place. the city is nice and the countryside is even better. i'd live here if i had to.
renee otey is singing with me this week. jake fulton is playing the djembe. it's been fun so far. but we're only like half way through. jake and i are leaving from here friday night around 8pm for knoxville/maryville. he has the army thing. i get to stay with the wingfield family. i'm excited about that. oh, and THEN i get to go home!!! i have missed my dad. i've missed sara too. either of our houses are home to me. i love to travel and meet new people and all that jazz. but the familiar faces that smile are the ones that warm my heart the most.
allison williams is visiting tonight with her puppy. not going to lie...i'm really excited about that. i love allison but i REALLY love puppies. i hope it's a nice one and that it doesn't crap on me. speaking of crap on me...
i got crapped on by a bird yesterday for the first time in my life. it was foul. 
and i'm not really watching the Directions video by DCFC but i really wish i was. sara got it for me for my 23rd birfday but i left it back in GA | | |
| at 6AM tomorrow i'm leaving for memphis, TN to play at chad and jillians wedding. then i'll drive through the night to louisville kentucky. pray that i don't wreck and die.
while in louisville, i'll be honored to lead worship at Team Expansion's pre-field orientation. i'm excited about it!
when i get back, it's time to get a job. oh boy. seriously, i have to make some money. my dad has been so gracious with helping me get on my summer feet. this is the first time in two years that i've been home. it's been pleasant thus far.
pray for the Team Expansion interns who are flying out all over the world to be the love of Christ. | | |
| Lose the
Idea that life will be consistant
Feel the rush of change
Every day of your life, know it's there
I wish i could make it stop
So i try to slam the breaks
And if you know what i mean, breaks don't work when it comes to
Life: you can't quit...
Wishing for the mundane will only bring
A world of heartache
Yesterday is every day
Stand on the promises of God because they are all you have
Choose to keep up
Hate evil
And love your enemies because even they love their friends
Never lose sight of love, whatever that means
Give God the chance to blow your mind
Indeed he will if you keep your eyes open
Nothing can separate us from God...not even our ever changing lives. so
Go enjoy the wild ride of life and always remember,
you are not in control | | |
| i'm 23. as of yesterday, that is. and sara threw me the biggest most wonderful "birthday week" ever. i got things, big and small...light hearted and very meaningful EVERY DAY FOR A WEEK. indeed very sweet. but it's so hard to accept gifts from people. especially people who love so deeply. i have never had a better earthly friend than sara. it sometimes is too much for my little heart to handle when i'm shown huge acts of love...even if they're small to the stranger's eye, they are indeed colossal to me. it's this way with God too. i wrestle every day with not being able to accept grace and forgiveness like i know i have to if i want to experience him fully. and believe me, i want to. i love Jesus. i love the beauty of the story God is still telling us...don't you love it?
it's so good to be back in Georgia. i believe in roots and wings...so i probably won't live here forever. but who really knows. what i know right now, is that i don't have to do anything for the next 2 weeks except relax, spend time with good, good friends and family, play my guitar religiously, and get these songs out of my head that have been banging around for the last 6 months | | |
