writing

I really! enjoy writing.. blogging. Could you tell? =)

I've had a bunch of thoughts running through my head since Saturday night. Still working on a final description. Feeling a strong calling to do more. I know it seems like I am always doing, going, being, but I guess I feel like I need to be giving out like Ministry wise. So today I am going to send an email to a lady and ask about helping to do a church plant in Mound, it may be a drive and a stretching experience. But it's been on my heart nonstop for over a week now.

Also God's been calling me to another level, and this time I am going to listen. To an active daily relationship with Him. Sounds simple, but time in the day evaporates so very fast. So I need to be more determined, more dedicated in deepening my relationship with him.

I am going to Journal everyday for the next year, hopefully blog near close to everyday too. I want to document this year, this year of growing, this year of renewing. This year centered around me and Him.

Life is SO MUCH more then the mundane everyday-ness of the world. I want to be effective. I want to leave a legacy. I want people to know who I am and what I am about. I want to live a life without regrets.

Music is a very important thing to me, and how it affects me, so I am also going to take steps to not listen to music or media that will bring me down. Lifted spirits is more what I am going for, it is no fun to linger in the mourning, in the depression, in the unhappiness, in the unforgiveness, in the anger. Those are all feelings we do need to feel and go through, but NOT feelings to hold on to, and relive everyday. So why listen to music that makes you relive the bad and ugly parts of life. We need to let them go and be FREE.. not surrounded but the doubt and negativity.

Hope you followed by random thoughts! Time to go meet the neighbors, at the neighborhood night out!
