Weird to think about

So...I was thinking about it...and it really just hit me quite hard that I might be buying a ticket to go live in Central Asia in the near future. That's kind of a crazy thought. There's a large potential to experience a wide range of emotions and questions that I might tend to be more pessimistic rather than optimistic about. Will I be able to hack the hot summers? Do I really have what it takes to survive in a place like Asia?

I don't know these answers. I just want to be obedient to Dad.

Drowning

I'm drowning in a sea of tranquility and love as I think about God and listen to Tiesto's Elements of Life album. What a glorious combination!

Lyrics that made me pause...

I was listening to the song by Jeremy Camp called "There will be a Day." It's played on the radio ALL the time, but there was something about it the last two times I've heard it that really moved me. The lyrics in the middle of the song are awesome....

"OH! I can’t wait until that day where the very one I’ve lived for always will wipe away the sorrow that I’ve faced! To touch the scars that rescued me from a life of shame and misery this is why this is why I sing…"

There's something magical about thinking of "to touch the scars that rescued me from a life of shame and misery." Wow.
