Dreaming

-
Sometimes all it takes is one dream.
Reminding us of where we've been. 
Where we are. 
And to where we will go. 
Just one dream, 
from a restless sleep. 
That's all it takes sometimes.

seize a friend and fly away

A poster I saw at Pike's Place this weekend. I'm SO ready to fly there.  Carpe Diem "Be happy, happy, happy,  And seize the day of pleasure" - Robert Frost I was talking with my friend Eric, whom I co-direct programming with for MiVoden, this weekend on our trip to Seattle. He was talking about looking at everything for the first time, really living in the present. He challenged me to go outside and look at nature without thinking about what I've known or been taught about it from the past, or what I think for the future, but to look at it for what I see now. I love that. So, today I went for a bike ride and looked at everything for the first time.

Courage In A World Of Change

The University Church on campus held their first church camp meeting, and I would say it was a grand success, mostly because they didn't hire in any speaker, but gave the responsibility to our church pastors, who I would pay to listen to every Sabbath if I had to. So, I went to all six of the meetings that were based on the first 6 chapters of Joshua, with the weekend theme being: Courage in a world of change.

Holy Plans

So this week was a week of God revealing His HOLY plans. "Before I shaped you in the womb, I knew all about you. Before you saw the light of day, I had holy plans for you." - Jeremiah 1:5 21 years ago God knew that on Wednesday , August 11 , 2010 I would be transitioning from a holy week at Priest spent with two awesome friends to the rest of a holy summer spent at a summer camp. He knew on this day I would open my eyes to the passions he placed inside of me, recognize my fears, and step away to follow his calling. Holy plans. They are real and happen when we search and wait. PS - I'm so excited to start my Elementary Exploratory class in a few weeks.
