because I can blog...

This is the first time I've started writing a blog without having a title to it. Tonight I just want to write and I have no idea what I want to write. A lot of people entitle their blog "ramblings", which I feel is insulting because it almost negates the validity of their thoughts and processes, however, tonight my blog may be just that: Ramblings....ramblings with validity, that is.

*i'm listening to Third Day's song in which Mac Powell is screaming out "There's a light at the end of this tunnel for you, keep holding on". God bless Third Day, but hearing that only leaves me cynical tonight in a variety of ways: Is there really a light? Also, couldn't there have been a more original way to express this thought? Seems much too pat and easy to say...

*I borrowed John Mayer's CD, "Continuum" this weekend and listened to it several times. After one such time, I turned on the radio to KLOVE and the music sounded like shmazbah...I just made up this word, but I think it expresses the thought just fine. I'm excited to be part of this new songwriter's group that will be starting soon. I want to make sure my music is not...well, you know.

*I came home from church today and was met at my door by Joann and Jill, two Jehovah's Witnesses. Joann and I had talked before. You know, it was VERY interesting. Although I disagree with a lot, it really got me started thinking again about how and if I and we, as in church, are truly doing things that are bringing God's Kingdom here on earth. Am I really doing the things that are closest to God's heart? I wonder if I saw a breakdown of my life as God sees it, how much is really lived for him and for his purposes. Man, I hope it's a lot. I really hope so.

The next 4 months should be very interesting...I'm excited to see what God does with this time. I'm applying to Denver Seminary and I've committed to the fact that I'll be moving out by September, which will be one year that I've been here in Colorado and I have no idea what this looks like or how or how I can swing this...

I'm falling into respect and "like" with someone. Sounds odd, but that's all I can figure to call it right now.

I'm so tired I'm falling asleep right now.

goodnight...
