A great brother of mine has joined the blogging world. I look forward to his insight, his wisdom, and his graceful way of sharing what the Bad Moon Rising looks like in his life :]
cheers.

fun things.
Just a few cool things I found in my Google Reader :] Thought I'd post to share. Surprisingly both images crossed my mind several times today. This is where my passion for social sciences comes in. Next thing you know, I'll be posting on my theories regarding egocentrism and urbanization. Watch out.
BOO-YA!

Hosea.
Come back to me with all your heart
Don’t let fear keep us apart
Trees do bend though straight and tall
So must we to others call
Long have I waited for
Your coming home to me
And living deeply our new life
The wilderness will lead you
To the place where I will speak
Integrity and justice
With tenderness
You shall know.
Don’t let fear keep us apart
Trees do bend though straight and tall
So must we to others call
Long have I waited for
Your coming home to me
And living deeply our new life
The wilderness will lead you
To the place where I will speak
Integrity and justice
With tenderness
You shall know.
be here now.
After my previous post....this song plays :] AMEN!
BE HERE NOW - Ray Lamontagne
Your will be still, don't try
Don't let your heart get heavy child
Inside you there's a strength that lies
Don't let your soul get lonely child
It's only time, it will go by
Don't look for love in faces, places
It's in you, that's where you'll find kindness
Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now
Don't lose your faith in me
And I will try not to lose faith in you
Don't put your trust in walls
'Cause walls will only crush you when they fall
Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now
grace of a pianist.
I wish I had the grace of a pianist. Moving their hands in fluid motions across a vast spread of keys. Striking each key with the confidence of a soldier in march but the grace of a ballerina on stage. Each key falling in sequence, each note even more beautiful then the one before it - creating a melody that gallops through the air and touches the hearts of a captivated audience.
It amazes me how something as simple as 88 black and white keys can dance across the grand staff in millions of different combinations and extend to unknown ledger lines. Creating music that turns legendary.
How many black and white keys lie in front of me right now? How can I embrace the next couple of months with the grace of a pianist?
It's not the moving that bothers me. It's not the meeting new people. It's not the "I'm on my own" factor.
It's the micro-things. The weather, the money, the details, the comfort of a life on my own , the worries of how I will keep in touch, the discomfort of knowing that relationships are going to be sacrificed. All of this is a direct result of not investing my whole identity in Christ.
WARNING: I'm still holding on. Still creating a world for ME and not Jesus.
The pride is preventing me from leaping.
Knowing that I am dancing with Jesus is a given. Creating the music seems fun, but it's the final rehearsal, the grand finale that scares me.
What will I have lost, what will I have gained, how will I measure up, is it going to be what I expected?
I'm praying for that renewed will of God - that trust that the Holy Spirit will be with me wherever I go. I'm sorry Jesus for the unwillingness to submit the part of my heart that wants to hug the balance beam, that squeezes so tight and replays the same keys over and over.
I pray for the grace of a pianist. I pray for the will of God to consume my thoughts. I pray for the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
I pray for utmost joy in fulfilling the plan you have for me and the people in my life.
I pray for the grace of a pianist.

"Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. Think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best. Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. Give so much to the improvement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. Live in the faith that the whole world is on your side so land as you are true to the best that is in you. " [Christian D. Larson]
Everything is because of Jesus, for Jesus, and in the name of Jesus. Give thanks in all circumstances :]
it's possible.

question - should this come before or after a mission trip?
Check it out.
