In my accounting class there are...

16 Students
16 Lighting Fixtures
104 Ceiling Tiles
9 Water Sprinkler Heads
1 Teacher
And not a single interesting moment.

I will never be an accountant!

If my heart could swell
Beyond the capacity of my chest
Would it break out
Of the chains of this flesh?
Would it take on
All the life that it could?
Would it let go
Of all the hurt from before?
Or…
Would it fall
Down to the earth in pain?
Would it die
From the freedom it desired?
Would it fracture
Beyond repair?
 
If my heart could swell
Beyond the capacity of my chest
Where would the love go?
Where would the pain go?
 
If my heart could swell
Beyond the capacity of my chest

tired

I am so tired. I just want to go home and lay down. I stayed out way to late this weekend. 3:30 on Saturday and 3:00 on Sunday. I regret nothing. I got to develop relationships that I feel very deeply about. For me, at least lately, I have found myself finding... Well, myself. I have been finding that I am a relational person. I love my friends. I love my family. And I want to grow that so very much.

On another note, I have the opportunity to teach every Sunday this month at the youth group for about 10 minutes. I am going to do a miniseries on the kingdom of heaven and what the invasion of heaven to earth would look like. I am getting excited about it.

iTouch... No, don't touch.

I have finally figured out how to blog from my new iPod Touch. This makes me rather happy. A shall be using this, hopefully much much more.

What makes me who I am? Is it the things I say. The way I dress. The group I associate with. The way I act. Or is it all of those things?

I think that it is so much more, because we can say certain things at one point and other things when the situation changes. Around this group of people we may be outrageous and entertaining, and around that group we are quiet and reserved. We can curse and be perverse in this place and be holy and gentle in another.

What makes a christian different? Are we all that much different?

In my opinion, it is that we are the same no matter who we are with. That we are whole and complete. No lies, no deceit, no rumors. Just the same. All the time.

John 17:11
I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name—the name you gave me—so that they may be one as we are one.

It is tuesday and I have two finals today.  I just finished my Psychology final and I am going to be studying for the rest of the day for my Accounting Final.  Yee-Ha!

I have been captivated by all of what has happened at New Life and YWAM.  I know a ton of YWAMers and even almost became one at one point, but my path was to be different.  I have been watching a few minutes of the covverage on CNN here at the campus and have no idea what to make of it all.  I am just glad that the security guards and the church had a plan in action and new what to do in case of an emergency.

It is finals week.  Fun?  Not so much.  However I have gained some mobility in my injured hand.  I also discovered a blogger widget and that makes me slughtly happier.  

I was wanting to quit everything, but today I'm doing much better.  It was probably just the pre-finals junk that was getting to me.

See you after finals!
