Don't think. Just Feel.

I'm often told that I think too much. There are very few things that can cause me to just feel without thinking about something, but this, for whatever reason does.

Music in the most unexpected ways.

People are Dying to Live

The cry of my heart.

The cry of my heart is to bring you praise
From the inside out
My soul cries out to You

~Hillsong

Content not to compare

Heart, why is it that you will not be content
Content in God's creation
His creation of you
You compare and measure yourself continually to what is imperfect
You compare yourself to other creations of God
Something created cannot surpass the perfection of its creator
Therefore unite your voice with creation around you and praise in unison the creator who alone is worthy of praise
For He stands alone in perfection
With this in mind you have only one response
Worship

Seperation conformity

I found this quote on someone else's page. I've had this similar subject on my heart recently. Choose to consider it or ignore it.

"Let me tell you why the suburbs are so toxic. Everything in the suburbs communicates to you that everything is about you. And there is nothing more toxic to the soul than being self-absorbed. Why would we spend millions of dollars to create an environment that reinforces to you everything that everything else out there is teaching you?"

Rediculous

Laughter

So I was feeling a little down today. Circumstances of life taking their toll. As I was sitting here somewhat discouraged and feeling sorry for myself I heard a couple talking. I couldn't understand at all what they were saying for, you see, they were speaking another language. Despite this lack of understanding my spirits began to lift. As the couple was talking they kept laughing. It's like they had forgotten about everything else and were just enjoying the company of one another. I thought about it. Laughter. What a way to melt away discouragement. No matter what life throws at you it seems that laughter can help you forget. Forget in a positive way. Forget that life is hard and broken. It allows you to see the light of life. So here's to laughter. Think about a time in your life that caused you to laugh out loud. A time when you smiled so much it made your face hurt. It's ok. Go ahead. Take a break from it all and just let it out.

Pray for Jake Gregory

I don't know this young woman, but she has obviously had a tremendous effect on the lives around her. Please take a moment to pray for the family of this child of God and that He would restore her fully to the life she had before this tragic accident.

Man's Best Friend

So for those of you who don't know, for most of my life I've not been a huge fan of birds. I've been pooped on and attacked several times. I'll spare you the details for now, but nonetheless not a big fan. Sure it's nice on a peaceful morning when you can hear them and not see them. Otherwise, keep them away from me. Well today, for the second time I might add, a bird got trapped in my screened in porch. When I went to let the dog out the bird tried to flee....unsuccessfully. Before it could escape, my wonderful dog, Keylee, sought it out immediately and attacked it. It now lies dead in my back yard. It couldn't have been a prouder moment. I cheered in victory. So this post is to man's best friend and my only current roommate. My dog. CHEERS!
