I think that i've come to the place where i 've finally realized that Jesus isn't just going to come and sweep me off to the bay area or any other city for that matter. I'm here, for a season, for a reason and purpose. The music is taking over. People. Loving them different. Loving life different. Realizing that music without life, without Jesus is null and void and will simply give you a high to last through the night and then you will again find yourself begging, searching for the next high. A circle that is empty and lonely without those close to you. But as you begin to find yourself. In the things that bring your heart so much overwhelming joy your hearts cravings change. Music filled with passion, reality, transparency, Jesus breathed caress and passion. will take you to a place where without even having His name mentioned you encounter Jesus himself. Stripped and raw before you. leaving you thinking, quiet, in awe of His beauty. Captivated. Consumed with all aside. Nothing else matters at this point.
Thinking today about the city. the people. and realizing that this is all part of the process. Getting to those places in a different way than i imagined and my heart being so set apart. Loved. Covered. Touched and incredibly romanced by my Jesus. The people are the same, everywhere, encountering problems. struggles. needs of the heart and everywhere Jesus is asking to be displayed through quiet, genuine, love... that's all. LOVE. Music is only one of the ways that Jesus meets those He loves.
So, here i sit, dreaming with my Papa of the places we will go. the people. coffee shops. Conversations. Late nights. all of it. that i can't even begin to put into a box because He's created something so unique and purposed. I sit back, breathe, and thank Him for the conversations that leave my heart at rest with Him. He knows me, loves me, dreams for me. I love Him. Not in the everday use of the word. but in the deepest part. I love Him.
I leave you with this. Live life as though the pressures of society don't exist. cry so that your heart my feel in the deepest. and love. love those close to you. love with your eyes. your heart. the person on the street corner. the girl who hands you, your daily coffee. Speak His truth of love over those around you even if it's under your breath or in actions. No drastic change. Just LOVE.
