the adventure


life is way to exciting to just sit back and watch from a distance. i never thought spending my entire summer in wilmore could be so wonderful. but literally, i cannot even express how much God has taught me these last few weeks. in some ways i feel like its been the summer from hell, summers in the past usually consist of making a butt-load of money and traveling. this summer hasn't been either but the sustaining presence of the lord has been more than enough to satisfy me redefine me purify me...set my heart on fire all over again. i feel like the lord is so re-shaping me that im losing myself entirely. which is good! because im getting so lost in him that im losing all my identity and self "inward" focus, which is forcing me to look to him for everything. my identity is found in him. he is surely teaching me john 3:30 and is increasing in me as im letting go of everything and letting that refining fire just burn. cause its not about me, its not about anything i can or cant do, its about him. and his spirit dwells inside me, and well, thats just very cool. lifes an adventure thats for sure. one minute im down and the next im up and running. its just like this wonderful unfolding of his beauty on me. and its all around. and he doesn't change like the shifting shadows of a cloud formation. he the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. haha!
