and then everything broke...

but with God - it's a good breaking. Don't let me be cheesy, but I'm serious - breaking is the only thing that can describe this. The mindset, the fear, the restlessness, the pride, the solemness instead of joy - today I felt relief from them. Just as I woke up.
Odd thing is - this filling of things that are not me fell on the second day of stopping this discipline I was practicing and was supposed to do for three more days The decision did come with prayer and a peace - BUT clearly- the religion broke with that decision and this filling too. When I think I deserve God to answer my prayers because of ABC and it being about me, I realize, He really shows up when I just learn to be, And listen, and realize - it's not about "figuring out the method to meet Him".
Convictions have fallen in the areas of compassion, fear of man, prayer, and faith. If you want to chat more- just let me know and we'll discuss.
I am blessed to have roommates like I do, neighbors like Adam and Ronda, people in the community I look to for advice and others I just love to have fun with. And in an even larger light in my mind - a church that LONGS for Jesus and His Kingdom and Realizes that this City is the Lord's, not satan's and we already have victory.
I'm blessed with college workers who will come to MICO and clean these 100 yr. old basements holding the most random things in a cloud of dust, and do it smiling the Whole time! Then create the most innovative interchangable sign for events that I could ever hope for! :)
