Better Days

Hello All!

These last few weeks have been really amazing. The next few weeks will prove to be equally incredible if not more so. But my heart is torn. God has been doing a serious number on my heart this last little while and the changes I am seeing are surprising even me.

I don't understand why or how, but it just is. There are certain things I believe. I don't often know how others would see them or think of them, but that's okay. Sometimes I just like to share my heart. People don't have to understand.

Of course the main thing driving me is Jesus and His reality, His spirituality, His presence and just KNOWING that you're with Him. There is nothing like it. No words could ever describe. But sometimes when you tell people that you are instantly thrown into this whole pre-concieved notion of what a "christian" is. Generally that view point is fueld by the mass market Christianity that is shown via Hollywood and by the nut-bars who make it onto TV and freak everyone out, including myself.

There can be a certain stigma attached to that. I do spend a great deal of time in Christian circles and that is good. But there is this whole thing that I see about people being really good at attending Christian services but never doing "the stuff". I also see how there is this thing that I like to call soul scalping rather then going and helping people make a true connection, one that changes their life not because they follow a program but have gotten in touch with the real deal - God himself.

What a bizzare concept. God. Me. Together. Big. Small. Perfection.

Anyway, just as I am about to embark on a rather long trip around the continent I am making connections with so many people who my heart just aches for already. People who I love, who are searching and quite frankly are ready to be with God for real. There is nothing like this. This is my favorite thing on earth to do -- introduce people to the "more" of God because it so has nothing to do with me or the other person, but mostly about watching their minds explode when they come into contact with something so incredible... something they've been searching for all their lives. It's incredible to watch as things finally begin to.... fit.

So in my usual way of thinking, I want to pack up a few people with me and take them with me everywhere I go. But I do realize I have about a week left to pour in as much as I can... and that means be as good a friend as I can, until I'm off for a while on the next great world adventure.

Here's an idea... if you want to stay informed of what happens as I tour about, subscribe to this blog and you'll get notified whenever I post a new update of the lastest crazy escapade I go on. I promise you this one is not going to be boring... well... when are they ever boring. This trip is going to be huge.

So as you subscribe to this blog take a moment and read this next bit if you want. I wrote it while I was spending time with God last night. I couldn't sleep... my heart was awake and thought I'd write a bit.

"I know there's more and I'll spend the rest of my life to find it. Nothing can take the place of this endless journey. I've tasted eternity and now I know that if I'm penniless it won't matter. All I need is Him. If I can just walk with eternity I can be hungry, dirty, outcast and it won't matter for my heart will be happy. This life on earth is just a blink in the entire scheme of things. Life doesn't end. We just move to the endless satisfaction of our soul. I'll give anything to look into the eyes of my Jesus. Nthing else on earth can possibly compare. Only Jesus can fill me. Nothing else beats the reality of Him. And it just keeps getting better. There is always more. Each passing minute, it grows. No matter where we are on the spectrum there is always more. our journey must never cease... it will never cease. Earthly life passes away, but our lives never will... the journey never will. Reality of God, fill me now!"
