I'll be home for Christmas

What an exciting time. I am on break and home for the holidays. I have only been home for a little over a day and already I am reminded of what I miss about home so much.... no... there's no snow on the ground right now, but I'm sure there will be before Christmas comes. What I'm talking about is more than that, the family, the friends, the laughs and memories you create when you are around those you love. That is what I miss about home. Not to take away from the memories I create at school, they are just as important and precious to me, but once memories are created with someone, there is always that longing to create more. So, rather than sit here and write about it more, I think I'm going to go make some memories.

It's been a long time

WOW! Life has been crazy. I don't think I've posted since before Thanksgiving break. I'm no longer in two bands... for the time being. We'll see how things go. If there's one thing I have learned about bands is that I have to be flexible. I'm grateful to only be in one band right now as we prepare for Gauntlet, having to play in two bands during that time would be a lot. Work is less crazy now that classes are over for the semester, which is good. We've got just enough time to reset and make sure everything is working before the new Januaries come in after break. The life of Production Team members is quite busy during Gauntlet.
Ministry Team is back on campus, which means my family from last year has had a chance to reunite. It has been so good to see them and catch up. They are a group of people that we can not see each other for months, and pick up right where we left off.
I've recorded a couple of songs in the studio now, I'm really excited about finally getting one done that I've been working on for a long time. I've got to mention here, that I could not have made this recording without the help of two of my roommates from last year - so THANKS A TON (you know who you are)!
I'm so looking forward to going home for Christmas. I didn't get to see a bunch of people at Thanksgiving time, like I had hoped, so looking forward to seeing them.
I've been going through a lot of life changes recently. The Lord is calling out a lot of stuff in life, that to some, may be insignificant, but to Him, and to me - if I want to live completely sold out to Him, it means a lot more. I'm learning a lot about obedience in the small things.
I'd better get back to something important looking. :)

Fasting LTE

This weekend was the fasting LTE for the interns. As I said in my previous post my band played for their worship sets. It went really well overall. I learned a lot. It was right back into the swing of things today and I am feeling it a little. I know I'm not going to have time for a nap, but I  know I will make it. I'm excited to be going home soon for Thanksgiving break. I know it will be short but at least it's something. I also have a fairly low key weekend next weekend, which will be the first one in a while.
There's actually not a lot of "out of schedule" things going in the near future which is exciting.
Had some of my friends take me out for my birthday which was really fun. We had a great time.

Don't Worry, there's nothing old or blue about this video. Just thought I'd try something a little different.

LONG, Interesting week

So, I just got back to Texas from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I had the amazing opportunity to drive with the SOW band on the way to Canada. I then worked SWAT/Support and came back to campus. So many things happened it was awesome. I left last Tuesday and just got back at about noon today. I got to see a lot of people that I know from Ministry Team, but it was short, and busy. The Lord is doing a lot in my life right now, and this weekend was a very clear example of what He's doing. It's time for class now so has to be short. Hopefully after some sleep I'll be more coherent and will write more.

Catching up

Well, it was quite a weekend. I got to go home and surprise my grandma for her birthday. It was a great trip and a great time to see family (and a few friends) along the way. It was certainly a quick trip though. It seems like I blinked and I was back already. Ministry Team is back for the week, they are learning how to do the church rigging. We are having a conference on campus this weekend, so I will be working a lot of overtime. I'm excited for the opportunities it is presenting though. Its also Week of the Ring. The January interns are excited that they are about to get their rings and I'm excited to be able to go through the sessions again. There is a lot of powerful stuff that is going to happen this week. There are powerful messages, and I pray that there are expectant hearts. I can't wait to see what is going to happen. I'm being so blessed by the opportunities I have to pour into the interns this year. The Lord is using a lot of my experiences from last year to show interns hope. Off to the prayer room for now. More will come later.
