Oh my goodness. My eye won't quit twitching and it's driving me nuts. I'm already insane...
But anyway, this past week has been interesting. Arguments over things that confuse people, guitar playing, retard best friends, last minute trips to Beaumont, class excursions, excellent worship despite many technical difficulties. It has been fun and exciting and very very tiring. I think I may collapse here very shortly. The new Hillsong United album came out and I am enjoying it thoroughly as I write this.
The other day I was meditating on one of my favorite verses, Joel 2:28-29:
28“And it shall come to pass afterward,
that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh;
your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
your old men shall dream dreams,
and your young men shall see visions.
29 Even on the male and female servants
in those days I will pour out my Spirit.
I was driving to New Braunfels as I often do, and God so clearly spoke to me, "Do you understand what that means?"
The words resonated in my head for the longest time and still are. I don't even fully understand everything he was trying to tell me, but I did have an interesting conversation with one of my friends that goes to DBU. He has been going to a meeting that is dare I say it...Pentecostal, or "Spirit Filled" for lack of a better term. "Spirit Overflowing" is more of what I would call it. At Dallas BAPTIST University. I think what God has been trying to tell me over the past few weeks is that He's been doing the work and moving the gears for a while now. The things my friend was telling me about, no man could have begun or kept going. God has something incredible planned for His church, and I really hope we're all ready for it. It's gonna happen whether we are or not, I just hope people who aren't as receptive as they should be of very old concepts can hang. God is not one to hide His power or refuse to move.
On a further note, God's audible voice is interesting. Not loud. Not thunderous as it sometimes is portrayed. More like a resonance of almost silence. Calming yet extremely piercing. Cuts me right to the core. I can't even compare it to a human voice to give a more concrete idea of it. But it's nice. I like it. Love it even, because I do.
There's a fascinating look into my brain and heart. Two things I think should be linked more than they are. That's why I get loud and stuff. Because my brain and heart are very connected. No comments from the peanut gallery. But that's been a little bit of my past week. I could go into further detail but you would end up bored I'm sure...nah I just don't want to tell you ;-)
