i leave for dallas tomorrow. i'm really excited. it just blows me away how/why God has blessed me with such amazing friends. In high school, people have sooo many different definitions of a friendship, it's insane. In college, we find those people that we truly connect with and friends that will be there for the rest of our lives.
They amaze me everyday.
I dunno why, but I've been having a really strong feeling about rushing next fall. Why? It's not like I could afford to be in a fraternity. Let's face it, I'm a poor college student. I'm PROUD of it. But I would really like to be in a fraternity. I really want to do Cowboys, but that's not until another year. We'll see how that goes.
Have you ever gotten that urge to just go outside and play in the rain? As the raindrops hit your face and you're praising God at the top of your lungs, Chris Rice playing in the background. Giving it all to God. I wish I had more opportunities like this. When I listen to "Come to Jesus" by Chris Rice, I can just picture me running in a field while it's raining and praising God. Wouldn't that be awesome? I sometimes feel that I'm too routine-y. I feel like I'm like that when I'm here in Texas City. Everything's a routine. I love love love that randomness of my friends at school and how they are extremely spontaneous. Whether it be swimming in Town Lake, jumping off bridges, taking road trips or just playing at the capitol. I need to get out of this routine I'm in. I need to start living on the EDGE for Jesus. I need to start taking risks.
and now lyrics:
A compelling or constraining influence, such as a moral force on the mind or world, PRESSURE. To be undecided or skeptical, to tend to disbelieve and distrust, to regard as unlikely, that’s DOUBT. The condition of being insufficient or falling short, decline in strength or effectiveness, FAILURE. The instinct to run, to back away, or give up, to need, want, reach, steal, the feeling to always want more, and to take more, the loss of breath at the sight of a car accident, to drive by, never being able to feel satisfied, and to reject anyone who tries, and this is my life.
