Hot Cabbage

I love how God motivates and pushes you through unlikely sources and in ways that you don't imagine. I feel like God's told me in the past 3 days that I need to wake up, stop being lazy, and realize that there is more to my relationship with Him than myself and my pitiful excuses for sinning.

On a completely separate note (ok, not separate at all but absolutely related), my brother is here and he's staying a few extra day(s). I'm thoroughly pumped. Jessica was in town this weekend and I got to see her for 2 days also. For that, I am equally pumped, but now depressed that I won't see her for 2 months, unless someone wants to front me the money to fly to Spain. But I'm not regreting "us" in any way and I'm realizing I should be more thankful for that blessing.


It's almost midnight and I gots work in the am, so I leave you know, but with song lyrics (as usual):

And all these stupid silly songs
Keep trying to catch your ear
I'm trying desperately
It's just so hard to persevere
And even if you listened
I never had much to say
Cause it's the same old song
I'm written for the day

and for heath:
EVERYBODY, EVERYBODY,
EVERY BODY WANTS TO BE A CAT!

I got soul but I'm not a soldier...


Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won
"With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done"
If you can hold on
If you can hold on


I doubt the Killers had Christ in mind when they wrote the song "All These Things That I Have Done", but the message speaks loudly to me. I'm so glad that God constantly speaks to me through everything and lets me know that His love covers all. I think grace is one of my favorite blessings from God.

One of my other favorite blessings is in Spain and right now its breaking my heart. It's odd, because I'm used to her being gone for weeks at a time, but knowing that she is 12 hours away instead of 4 makes it that much harder. Plus the fact that I can't talk to her daily whenever I want. I'm just ready for Friday to be here and at least see her for 2 days. Then the real fun starts....

Last night was some of the most fun I've had since being home. I forgot how much I enjoy being around my friend Katy V (we basically haven't hung out since highschool, for some reason i don't understand). I met two guys at her house who are both going to be at CM2007 and I'm quite stoked about it. I know God is going to teach me so much this summer and I'm going to grow, but right now I just wish Jess was closer. I guess its for the best, since God has a plan for everything. I just need to let it go and know that everything will be ok, no worries.
