Hebrews 11:8
It was by faith that Abraham obeyed when God called him to leave home and go to another land that God would give him as his inheritance. He went without knowing where he was going.
A friend asked me yesterday "Where do you see yourself in 10 years?"
It took quite a bit of thinking, but all I could come up with was "I don't know. That vision is ever-changing"
Surprisingly, I was very comfortable with that thought.
The past 2 weeks I've been working at youth camps, I leave tomorrow for my 3rd camp in Panama City, FL. The days after I get back from that, I will be heading to St. Petersburg, FL to live among the homeless population there. I will be sleeping where they sleep, eating where they eat, living and loving the people of that area.
After that trip we will be making another trip to speak at a church in Albuquerque, NM. I'm really looking forward to these trips and getting to go love these people.
Last week I made 2 amazing new friends. As we were working at SuperSummer, we all felt called to go and spend most of next summer in another country. Right now, the 3 of us are praying and preparing. I will have more details about this when we figure them out.
I ask you guys to keep me, my friends, and ILoveEvelyn in your prayers as God uses us for His will.

| Mid-term 2009
It's already May?
Wow...
So far, this year has blown by. I've been through so much, but there is so much more to come. Big things are coming up that have me uber1 excited. I've already traveled via car to New York City and back. I'm currently working on a film.2 I've been writing songs. I've learned to play piano fairly well. I'm in a new band, and we will start working on our album this week. I've opened up for Todd Agnew and Big Daddy Weave.
Over the summer, I will be working for ILoveEvelyn. We've got a bunch of shows coming up at the building. May 23rd is Shoes for Evelyn. We've got Mid-Winter and Cedar's Return playing and it only cost a pair of shoes to get in. We'll be working on the film a lot over the summer, but we'll also be going on a short tour hitting up cities like Memphis, Nashville, Cincinatti, and Chicago.
Not only am I doing those things this summer, I will also be gone for 3 weeks straight with Trinity3. We've got our Jr. High Camp that I'm helping at. The next week is Super Summer at Mary-Hardin Baylor in Belton, TX. I'm going to be leading a small group there and possibly leading worship. The week after that Cedar's Return will be leading worship at a camp in Panama City, FL.
Somewhere during all of this, I will be planning4 for the fall. I honestly don't think it's going to slow down at all once August hits, but who knows?
Oh well, I'm out!
1. New cool term that means "really" or "super." I'm just trying it out.
2. see www.iloveevelyn.org
3. see www.oneministry.com
4. Everyone who reads this knows I don't plan anything.

| College KidsSomeone please save us, us college kids
What my parents told me is what I did
They said go to school and be a college kid
But in the end I questioned why I did
I'm poor, I'm starving, I'm flat broke, I've got no cash to spend
Sell all my books for front row tickets to Dave Matthews Band
My girlfriend's at another school I know this year will test her
I called, found out she had 3 other boyfriends last semester
And that's why I say
Oh no, not for me, not for me
Call it torture, call it university
No, arts and crafts is all I need
I'll take calligraphy and then I'll make a fake degree
$80 grand later I found out that all I had learned
Is that you should show up to take your finals and your midterms
The party scene is kinda mean, I think its sick and twisted
The Navy showed up at my dorm and claimed that I enlisted
Dont get excited, she'll say "no" without a doubt you see
And I've decided college girls just wont go out with me
They make me nervous and they always catch me off my guard
Like cell phone service I drop out cause college is too hard
Its time to call my father
Cause its his alma mater
Good grades arent what they seem
I think he knows the dean
Its time to call my father
Cause its his alma mater
He said hes proud of me
But college always was his dream
And I would always say its not for me
And that's why I say
Oh no, not for me, not for me
Call it torture, call it university
No, arts and crafts is all I need
I'll take calligraphy and then I'll make a fake degree
Phi, beta, delta, kappa
Do waht will make you happy
Do what you feel is right
Only but one thing matters
Learn how to live your life

| TimesI know I need You
I need to love You
I love to see You, but it's been so long
I long to feel You
I feel this need for You
And I need to hear You, is that so wrong?
Now You pull me near You
When we're close, I fear You
Still I'm afraid to tell You, all that I've done
Are You done forgiving?
Oh can You look past my pretending?
Lord, I'm so tired of defending, what I've become
What have I become?
I hear You say,
"My love is over. It's underneath.
It's inside. It's in between.
The times you doubt Me, when you can't feel.
The times that you question, 'Is this for real?'
The times you're broken.
The times that you mend.
The times that you hate Me, and the times that you bend.
Well, My love is over, it's underneath.
It's inside, it's in between.
These times you're healing, and when your heart breaks.
The times that you feel like you're falling from grace.
The times you're hurting.
The times that you heal.
The times you go hungry, and are tempted to steal.
The times of confusion, in chaos and pain.
I'm there in your sorrow, under the weight of your shame.
I'm there through your heartache.
I'm there in the storm.
My love I will keep you, by My power alone.
I don't care where you fall, where you have been.
I'll never forsake you, My love never ends.
It never ends."
