The last time I posted on this thing was year ago. Therefore, a year ago from now I was in Rome. How I long to go back to that place.

A lot has happened in the March 2007-March 2008 time span. Where to begin? I don't know where to begin, but I know when to begin and it isn't now. haha. Going to bed.

I love Chicago. And you.

you should read this article. it is worth reading. and it will only take you about a minute to read...it inspired me. my hope is that it will do the same for you.

"I wonder what the secret is to moving beyond being a creature of ritual and being the real person who stops people in their tracks and makes them wonder where my beautiful wholeness has come from. That is the point of finding Him in everyday moments. Wholeness stems from embracing what He has done for me and from being willing to change and follow the leadings of His quiet, daily romance. God is a being of habit as well, especially in the consistent ways that He runs after the human heart." -Rhema Muncy (relevant mag.)

In all honesty, i'm pretty tired of people asking me when I'm going to get a "real job".
rumor has it that they don't stop asking so i should get used to it.

all i have to say is that when i wake up in the morning there is nothing that i'd rather be doing.
i see lives being changed.
there's nothing more awesome than seeing students making decisions to follow God with all of their hearts. to see the Lord answering their prayers, to see something happen that makes the light bulb light up, that makes something click, to see them put their hope and trust in God. To see them in  the midst of trials (and i'm not talking some wimpy "i broke my nail" trial) clinging to God knowing that what He has for them at the end of it (as well as in the middle) will bring them closer to Him.
it motivates me and spurs me on.
so you can go ahead and tell me that this isn't a real job...and i will go ahead and invite you to come along with me and see this thing i do.
then you can tell me what is real and what is not.
