there is a light at the end of the tunnel...
is it freedom calling my name? or the train of academia about to run me into the ground? haha, no matter, in a little over twelve hours, i will be finished with the semester. between now and then, i have to write a 6-10 page paper about the parables of the synoptic gospels. yeh, i'm mos def ready for this year to be over.
tomorrow is gonna be cool. me, wes, chucko and a yet to be identified person are heading over to raleigh tomorrow evening for the ribfest. wes' pops had four tickets and gave them to us since he's not going to be able to make it up here this weekend. i was hoping i'd be able to make it over to raleigh this weekend to see my g-burg peeps before i go home, so this is perfect. thanks God :) i know i'll at least get to see kelly, which is cool cuz i haven't seen her in like...two or three weeks, hehe. i miss people easily, especially when they're that close to my heart. it's gonna be fun times :)
kat sent me a link to this 'interview with God' movie. it's pretty cool. got some breathtaking pictures and some good words to live by. man, how cool would it be to really interview God, and be able to show it to the people of the world? just imagine the changes that would occur immediately. man....that would be powerful stuff. but that's not how He wanted to do things. instead, we're supposed to be His representatives here on earth. His p.r. department if you will.
All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled to us himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation. Therefore, we are ambassoadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
~2 Cor 5:18-21
it's a good thing He's so forgiving, cuz i'm a poor poor ambassador, and if this were the real world, i'd be out of a job right now. amazing grace, what a sweet sweet sound :) alrighty, enough procrastination, i'm dust. pz out and God bless!
sounds: caedmon's call - not enough
food for thought: the gospel according to mark - God
