to my friends who are scattered about. you know who you are

so many times i am impressed by my friends and the spiritual growth, heck, just the normal life growth i see in them (that kind of sounds like pregnancy but that's not what i mean). it makes me so glad and excited and want the same for myself. i feel like all of us can identify with the feelings of fear that come with being in or on the cusp of big life changes. but there my friends are, slogging through, when all of the sudden they stop, re-evaluate, and then start trying to joyfully run through the mire of life to the One who inspired them to run.

i am so proud of and inspired by you!

call me crazy, but i feel like God has a little network with all of us. like straight up avatar style network. we are all so close and connected, though miles apart, that we often are pondering or worrying about or feeling the same things without even knowing it. so when one or more of us is in need, God will use another person, be it in blogging or skyping or whatever, to reach out to others in the network about the very thing that they are having trouble with and uplift them. give expression to what is happening inside. i think that is so cool! and we don't even have to have those freaky braid thingies with tentacles to tap into our network.... suh-weet!

you want to know what i've been pondering lately? true joy, truly knowing myself and what i want, and the fact that God knows my heart better than i do, so i should just let him handle things.

so my friends, i just want you to know one thing: i see you.

:D

sorry this blog is weird and scattered....

  2. I see you! The Avatar references crack me up. But this is real good, and I think you're right.

  5. Oh man. For real. There's no doubt in my mind that God has done this. It's wonderful. Really, really wonderful.
