Closer

“We the church have been compelled by Almighty God, maker of heaven and earth

…to WORSHIP God with such a PASSION, excellence, and creativity, that it transforms the church and CHANGES the world

… to break through racial, political, social and religious barriers and bring a clear message of HOPE an salvation found in Jesus Christ

… to raise up generation after generation to be a reflection of the Radiant One

… to take the LOVE of Jesus Christ and sweep the streets, dirt roads, and back alleys of this world of social injustice, hatred , and apathy …

… to influence the world with the LOVE and COMPASSION of Jesus in such a way that the church CANNOT be ignored.”

my life in boxes....

As many of you know I have recently moved, for the weeks leading up to this day and now that it has come and gone I've lived around and out of boxes. It's weird to see everything that I am in boxes, funny that 90% of it is CDs and Records. Maybe I'm a minimalist, or not sentimental, or maybe i'm too young to be any of those things, but in talking with my roommate, apparently the fact that i can fit my life in 10 boxes is pretty impressive. She is three years younger and has easily three times as much stuff... I guess it's because you never know when you're going to have to leave. I've never really had roots... I could totally travel for a living... wonder what that means

insomnia or something like it

I think I may have insomnia...
Insomnia : inability to obtain sufficient sleep, esp. when chronic; difficulty in falling or staying asleep; sleeplessness
yes that does it... here goes with the self diagnosis, I have no trouble falling asleep it's the staying asleep, I woke up yesterday morning with a song in my head, at 3am, couldn't go back to sleep until 5...
it used to be different, I would have the hardest time going to sleep, my roommates (when i had them) would fall asleep at least an hour before me but i couldn't shut my mind down, now i can clear my mind before i fall asleep, however i can't make it stay off. i wake up thinking about random things, I wonder what the weather is like in Boston right now.... if i was home in Austin what would my life be like? These are the haphazardly placed ideas that wake me up in the middle of the night.
A good friend told me that i should take a sleep aid, maybe i need to just simplify....
