a little fun to lighten the mood

1.

2. Go listen to The Riverside Worship Project. A couple of them are friends of mine from Auburn and they're touring this summer, playing at camps and playing the mainstage at Cornerstone Festival. Seriously, they're going to be big one day. My friend Lauren and I went to visit them at one of their events last weekend and it was much fun.

3. These kids continue to inspire me. If you haven't heard them before, be sure to watch their performance of Phoenix's "Lisztomania" and Owl City's "Fireflies". Phenomenal.

This short film is everything I love about movies and film rolled into one ten minute piece. So while I'm packing to go home for the weekend, you should sit down, clear your mind, and enjoy this:

I don't belong here.

No, I don't belong here.
I'm gonna set side
& set sail
for the kingdom come, kingdom come
your kingdom come
won't you let me down...
let my foolish pride forever let me down

-The Beautiful Letdown. Switchfoot.

But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself. Therefore, my brothers, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm thus in the LORD, my beloved.

Philippians 3:20-4:1

"It makes you wonder. All the brilliant things we might have done with our lives if only we suspected we knew how."

Sunday Morning Musings

"O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied

me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of

my need for further grace. I am ashamed of my lack of desire.

O God, the Triune God, I want to want Thee; I long to be

filled with longing; I thirst to be made more thirsty still.

Show me Thy glory, I pray Thee, so that I may know Thee

indeed. Begin in mercy a new work of love within me. Say to

my soul, "Rise up my love, my fair one, and come away."

Then give me grace to rise and follow Thee up from this

misty lowland where I have wandered so long"

-A. W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God
