Praise God, easy mac, grass, and music.

upon the epiphany of tonight:

I really wish that people (myself included in all of this) didnt care so much about stupid stuff. let me break it down.

nothing we have on earth, clothes, cds, nice mac computers, tvs, cars, NOTHING is coming with us.

why do we worry so much about how we look? the clothes we try on a million times in a store to get the right size and the right color. lets break it back down to simplicity for a while.

our soul purpose and the whole reason we are wired the way we are is to love and praise the creator of the fingernails on your hands. (and everything else, of course.)

i often find myself worrying about what i will do when i graduate, how i will pay for school, who will i marry, will anyone even want to marry me for that matter? am i going to do missions? will i do graphic design or photography or both?

these questions are so stupid. if there is one thing i've learned as time has absolutely flown by my freshman year, its that we have got to start living for TODAY. which is so hard to do when you're worried about your paper due next week, or your big test tomorrow.

the speaker at FCA tonight told us that we should begin to pray every morning for God to let us touch someone's life TODAY. not for every day the next 3 years of your life, but just today.

Moral of the story, today is important, and that is all. so make the most of TODAY. go sit outside, stop doing homework or studying for 30 minutes and just admire the fact that God decided to let you wake up this morning.

There must be some reason you're here today, i challenge you to figure it out, and then DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

now go save the world.
