to anyone listening.

So I was talking with a friend yesterday.
And he said... Do you not use xanga anymore?
And I was quite perplexed as to how he knew
that seeing as he hasn't been on xanga in almost forever.
It turns out that he gets email updates....
And seeing as I turned mine off long ago, I had
pretty much forgotten people used them.

It made me wonder if there were more people
out there getting emails about this post.
It's a little odd.
Almost creepy.
It almost makes me want to not write....

or write more.

I haven't decided which.
But to all you email subscription stalkers....
this update is for you.
:D

It's raining.
It's been raining for a day and a half.
Almost non-stop.

It's been an interesting couple
of weeks here.
Reality is starting to set in.
This is my life.

I want... more.
I was created for... more.

But I know I am supposed to be here.
I am not sure for what.
But I want to find out.
Maybe it's people at school.
The Young Life kids.
I am not sure.
But hardly anything is turning
out how I thought it would.

I have a firm belief in God teaching
people what they need to learn, in different ways.
And God, for most of my life,
seems to teach me by taking
things away from me.

I feel like I am in another one
of those seasons...
Where I have nothing.
Nothing but Him.

and He is  e n o u g h .

A quote I heard today:


"Worship is the submission of all our nature to God.

It is the quickening of conscience by his holiness;
the nourishment of mind with his truth;
the purifying of imagination by his beauty;
the opening of the heart to his love;
the surrender of will to his purpose--
and all this gathered up in adoration,
the most selfless emotion of which our nature is capable."

William Temple

the journey

Today I was talking with a friend of mine.
and she said something to the effect of:

"sarah... you know how sometimes you feel
like your journey with someone isn't over?"

That was the second time I have
heard someone describe a relationship
as a journey. And I decided it agrees
with me.


as for you.
I feel like our journey isn't over.
We have so far yet to go...

speechless.

today I had an agenda.
there were some things I needed to sort out.
I needed to talk to God about it.
Process through. Ask His opinion.
and then God showed up.


and suddenly... I had nothing to say.
