Ok, So I'm a genious....

So it's been a week since I posted anything, sorry. Not much has gone on. I still have no post-college job, still don't even have a prospect and I am still working on me. Otherwise life is going ok. Memorial Day weekend was nice, I mixed at church and went out on the lake, and had some people over to the house tonight. It was just a nice day of a lot. Tomorrow is Winery Day, YAY, it will be fun to just sit out and have nice conversations tomorrow.

Anywho I'm off to bed..................

I love God, he loves me, and thats all I need.....

So tonight was the Sleeping at Last show. They pretty much rocked the house with their great blend of instruments and one sweet vocal. It was so cool to be apart of the team that helped pull this show off because God showed up.

I played bass for Monty, check out his music here, it was the funnest time I've had in a long time playing. I love playing music with Monty, Randall, Aaron, Jared, and Jeremy. The vibe we had going was awesome. God showed up, calmed my heart, allowed people to see Him through me and also gave me hope that everything is going to be alright. Yeah there will be struggles, disappointments and challenges. But with my God I can do anything.

"In this life your the one place I call home,
In this life your the feeling I belong.
In this life your the flower and the thorn,
Your everything thats fair in Love and War."

Jon Foreman (Switchfoot, duh!!)

I love this song, this album and this band. If you don't you need to at least read his lyrics, great writer.

Currently this is my theme song, yeah it may be about a girl but for me it's about God........and he's all I'll ever need.

I need to write more......and read more too......

So, I've figured out why I am the way I am (ok, I'll never fully figure it out but I'm working on it)

I need to take better care of myself, sleep, eating right, sleep, sleep. But one thing I don't do enough is read. I don't get into God's word enough, nor do I read other smarter peoples opinion on topics. I also don't write down what I'm feeling enough, I store it all up in my head where it can torment me and make me crazy. Anywho if I could turn off the bloody TV and do these things I might love myself a little more..........and be able to accept God's grace, mercy, and love......

Another awesome weekend....

So this weekend I got to go with a bunch of our youth musicians to Table Rock Lake to hang out and write music as well as goof off on the lake.

The songs these kids came up with were completely awesome, I was in awe at the creativity springing from these youth. Their thoughts on God, worship, and how life interacts with worship was inspiring to me. I also was thanking God all weekend for allowing me to be apart of these kids life.

Now as for the fun in the sun, that part was awesome, throwing some kids around on the tubes, watching three of our guys jump off a pretty high cliff, just chillin' on the water that was the most relaxing thing I think I've done in a long time.

Thanks God!!

It's 10:25 on monday night and this is whats on my mind...............but this is pretty much me all the time.

Is it better not to love, or to love?

Is it possible to fall in love in this day in age, where everything is go, go, go and no one wants to let God speak to them?

Will I ever get the girl of my dreams?

Why am I such a sap and impatient when it comes to this sort of thing?

God, give me peace, patience, willingness to seek you, a heart for worship in all I do, and a Godly woman who will make me the happiest man on earth.........some day.

AMEN

It's been a long weekend already (and it's only saturday morning)

So it's 1:30 in the morning on Saturday..... I have been up for 20 hours or so. In the last 36 hours I have seen Spiderman 3, it was Ok, went to work for 8 hours on 4 hours sleep and then went to the cards game, we won; 1st win since Josh Hancock died, went to the landing to hang out after the game.

I had a really good time and now it's time to get some beauty sleep, oh wait I don't need beauty sleep, I'm dead sexy!!!

Maybe that's the lack of sleep or maybe I am just dead sexy, not really sure, my mind isn't working to it's full capacity.

So I'm going to bed now..............................zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

So.....

So I usually help out with middle school on wednesday nights but I've recently decided to step back a touch and start to take care of myself, or at least attempt to, it felt really good to just relax at home tonight. I practiced a little music, caught up on some reading and just kinda got used to just being alone. It was a nice change of pace.........


Oh yeah if your in St. Louis on May 20th you might want to check out this show you might just recognize the bass player for the opening band......
