I love blogs!

I love blogs! They're so exciting! I love being able to peek into the lives and thoughts of people I"m in touch with now and people that impacted my lives in the past. It's so encouraging to see people move through their lives.

I was at converge last night with Hayley, and a man whose name was Damien I think started talking about his heart. He had a huge passion for God, bigger than I've seen in a long time, and kind of what I like to think mine looked like at it's peak. He talked about his fears, and how he wanted so badly to move forward for God, but didn't know how to do it. It's really encouraging to see that it IS possible to fight through all of this, and to cultivate that "zeal" in the real world. It makes me want it even more.

Converge was awesome last night. I was so in awe of everything there. I love the church they meet in! The sanctuary itself was a work of art. The floor was 2 different kinds of hardwood, with a cross design on it, there were an alpha and an omega symbol in a mosiac in the middle of the cross and there was another mosiac at the front. The whole thing was beautiful. And the idea that it was all created as an act of worship was so incredible to me. It was a blatant reflection of God's love! Wow.
