my room is a mess, but it was a great night

spitting theology never sounded so good
over Pink Floyd's "The Dark Side of the Moon"

we smoked pipes and talked about whatever we were learning.
ranging from speaking in tongues
to the book of Acts.

and then we found ourselves in waffle house.
david hadn't ever been to a waffle house before.
we continued talking before we got any service,
you don't go to waffle house for the quick service,
you go cause its greasy and good food.

he's liking a girl,
and he's to self conscious about himself.
dude, she's cool.
your cool,
just take it slow and hang out with her.
+she can quote scripture
dude don't worry.
she said she liked your style.

hahaha.
it was a great night and once it's almost 3am.
but tomorrow's going to be long.
and hopefully my girl and i can hang out.

boy with a lighter or girl with a match

today was nice.
slept in.
can't get out of bed when it feels so good to stay.

work was nice,
kids cried,
more kids cried.

my boi came over and we played ncaa,
pwned schools.

i was waiting for some people to come over,
but as night trotted on,
i received no call.
but at 12:45 he called.
they came over.

after the fire had died out,
we sat around and talked about
coldplay,
dave matthews,
acts,
david,
fire,
bladder control.

i was impressed by a match and a determined girl.
she kept a weak fire alive as long as we were out there.
we spoke,
they talked about FSU,
and threw paper on a fire.
green flames are so purty.

it was nice,
they were a little to loud when they came in the house.
but both girls tripped over the outside step,
i'm a horrible host.

nice unexpected night.
hope it happens again.

insomnia

i'm eating an apple.
its scrumptious.
i went on a bike ride,
to watch the moon.
its bright and perfectly circular.

i'm drawing back.
i'm ready for someone to do something wrong,
so i'm not giving it my all.
its easy to get away with it
when distance is aiding you.

my fingers smell of tobacco,
and it reminds me of grandpa.

my mind is reading the Bible while my heart is searching,
running my eyes through the scriptures to find where He says I love you.
He said it on the cross,
He said it through His blood.

and how do i show Him that I love Him?
can i just say it and that be good enough.

but love is sacrificial, love is an action/ love aint fleeting love is everlasting
-Sho Baraka

its amazing.
this love.
and its not "love everyone."
good feeling, generic.
its specific,
cause this love is for you.
for me.
its more than what i'm doing right now,
its more than what people think it is,
at least i think it is.

so i stay up late
and sleep in later than i did yesterday.
and i eat more apples,
and drink more water.
listen to more music,
watch more movies.
enjoy my sheets more,
miss my innocence
and childlike trust/faith more.
wish i had no walls,
no problems,
no past to help create barriers,
no worries to fashion hurdles.

i want to be alex, caroline, megan,
josh, isaiah, emily.
i want to be the kids i work with.
they are loud,
they are honest,
they are looking to learn,
curious and so innocent.
they call out what is wrong,
they apologize with their heart and not their words.

Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
-Matthew 19:14

the kingdom belongs to them,
and is most easily seen in their smiles.

movie fiend

i've watched 5 movies throughout today's time.
in order:

Donnie Darko
South Park :Long and Uncut
Memento
Evil Dead
Borat

jessie came over and we practiced for this upcoming sunday.
we are singing some songs for the childrens ministry.
they are christmas songs.
i love christmas songs but man they are difficult.
i like singing with jessie.
its easy and effortless.

she brought over our vbs music video.
i'm in only like 45 seconds of it,
but it came out a lot better than i expected.

feel in love with the song from Donnie Darko.
its called "Mad World".
the one in the movie is by Gary Jules,
its a Tears for Fears song,
but Gary re-did it for the movie.
beautiful in a dark,
sorrowful kind of way.

great song.

i'm going to bed with my windows closed,
which really makes me mad.
i've enjoyed the cool air in my room at night,
and loved being stirred out of sleep by the sun in the morning.
but south floridas weather is,
as a friend so aptly put it,
"going through menopause".
hot, cold, hot, cold.

i go to bed knowing that i will watch more movies tomorrow,
my best friend is in town,
the office is on again tomorrow night,
and we got a new firepit.

i submit that it cannot."-Brian Regan

good...nay i say great

tonight was good.
showed up for a bible study and was the only person there.
but we talked as we ate chick-fil-a
we talked about the Bible.
in the middle of the Chick-fil-a
we spoke on 1 John 2: 24-28.

then we stood outside and talked more.
about life, life as Christians in this world
our responsibilities and our purpose.
it was great,
have a date a week from today.
with my friends and one guy is inviting this girl named taylor,
he works with her.
he says she's a Buddhist
but wants her to see what its like to live with people,
listen to people, learn from each other.
Proverbs 27:17
"As iron sharpens iron,
so one man sharpens another."

she smokes,
we'll smoke.
just singing old praise and worship songs with our guitars,
smoking cigars and/or cloves,
talking about what we are struggling with,
listening to records.

should be interesting.
good times talking,
good times eating.

my goodness chick-fil-a
has to be heaven sent.

tired

painted my house today.
got paint on myself,
and sweated.

gators won.
and what a game it was.
so good.
read and studying 1 john 2:1
taking it word by word.

tomorrow should be chill.
church and relax.

the weather has been beautiful,
sunny and cool.

i like my dad.
i was pissed at him yesterday
but today was good.
i helped him paint and felt like his son.
although i already knew the procedure and process of painting with a roller,
i played along.
his friend came over.
they were going to ride bike's to a local sports bar to watch the uf vs bama game.
i caught myself following them two around the house.
my dad was showing his friend the new improvements and what he's working on,
and i followed like a five year old boy,
walking in his dad's footsteps.
just curious as can be.

funny.
been turning in early lately
and tonight i will follow suit.
with my windows open to let in the breeze.

venus and jupiter are visible now.
they are the two bright "stars" under the moon.
sort of south east of the moon.
beautiful.

we are so small
and the night is so grand.

.beautiful.

i will never understand how dead i was,
what God has saved me from.
and my responsibility,
and my pleasure to serve such a wonderful God.
