i feel so different...i dont think i could ever go back to LU. but i am....
online!
i am starting seminary in the fall!! i have yet to understand how i came to that decision, as well as struggling to get my mind around why i am so excited to start studying and writing once again. i am reaching towards being inducted into the circle of those who have a masters of art and religion in discipleship diploma to hang in their office.
theology is still tugging at my heart, however....

i will be a flame once again!!!!!!!

the other day my dearest and closest friend shelby was telling me about some things that were changing in her life. i could tell she was excited but didn't want to "jump the gun" i told her something simple that ended up piercing my own soul. celebrate the small victories. sometimes we miss the pebbles that could cause our feet to slip because we're waiting for God to move a mountain. there's been a lot that's been going on in my life and decisions i've had to make and i have been so ~~ungrateful~~ to God for the small headways in this line of traffic. i wish i could go into more detail but i just can't...as cliche as it sounds, i am coming to know why everything is made beautiful in HIS time. and part of that beauty is seeing Him giving a little bit of encouragement--Him saying, I'm still here. I'm moving. I hear your cries. Continue to trust Me, I am mighty to save!

today is packing day. tomorrow is driving day. saturday is settle back into what is now offically my home day.
i have now spent a substantial amount of time in lynchburg. it's boggling how nothing has changed yet everything has changed. in less than 24 hours i will no longer be a virginia resident, because i am doing what i swore i never would. i am permanently moving somewhere. i will become a florida resident and i am beyond excited. i know that this is exactly where the Lord created my heart to serve. i believe in west palm and it's counties. i sense a long, hard road leading it's way to revival. my legs are restless to start moving and my mind is filled with visions and creations for the students at CF. my mood is only slightly bent because no one here understands, they each have their own dreams for my life. so, i have no one to share my excitement with for this last day. so i continue to surpress it for just a few more hours until i hit the long highways that lead me from home to...home. then there will be hours of music and talking all my ideas out loud to myself and imagining what my life will look like for the next few years. so i must start what i have now become an expert in doing-packing.

for some reason or another, i crave the disorganized, the helpless, the chaos. yet everything is creeping into place. beautiful and so unsettling. do not fear,there is still much unknown.

surrender. contentment. not something that has been easy for me these days. i am currently staying in nashville, tennessee(i have yet to call this place home). and quite honestly, wondering, what the heck i am doing here. it has been quite a difficult month trying to adjust to the city. i am usually very adaptable to my environment but just have not taken a liking to this particular one.... i think part of it could be that i'm realizing that i am growing up. sometimes my body literally aches to return to liberty where i am comfortable, taken care of, where i have such a blessed community. i long for the sweet times with girls from 19-2, i miss those moments walking down to demoss and just breathing in the Presence of God's almighty Hand holding the few miles of LU. but i am reminded that God in Nashville is the same as He was at LU. being at LU and surrounding myself with people of like minds and having the same vision of changing the world is not what i was created to do. while it was the greatest of training grounds i come to find that we must all sling open the door of opportunity and allow ourselves to fail, to "just make ends meet" and to sacrifice a sense of belonging in order to obey the Lord and know Who He truly is. though i stay up some nights feeling lonesome and wanting to drive to lynchburg in the morning, i know that i can not. i was created to be out in the world, sharing the faithfulness and mercies of God. though i am far from being able to say this about my own life, i humbly quote paul in philippians, praying that one day i will no longer be confident in my own flesh:::

but whatever was to my profit i now consider loss for the sake of Christ . what is more is i consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for Whose sake i have lost all things.i consider them rubbish, that i may gain Christ and be found in Him....not that i have already obtained all this or have been made perfect, but i press on to take hold for that which Christ Jesus took hold of me.

Psalm 8

O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.

From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise
because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.

When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,

what is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?

You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
and crowned him with glory and honor.
You made him ruler over the works of your hands;
you put everything under his feet:
all flocks and herds, and the beasts of the field, the birds of the air,
and the fish of the sea, all that swim the paths of the seas.

O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!

someone is dreaming
someone is hoping just that this will be the day
that this will be the day that you take your eyes off the ground
out of the blue
and see that someone is looking right
back at you...

sometimes bombs fall quietly...
maybe it's chemistry
maybe it's hard to see that someone is the right one
i hope that someone is me...
