the power in a face

tonight was one of the most bizzare nights i've had in a while.


while sitting at barnes and noble, i realize that there's a group of about 6-8 atheists sitting around talking right behind me. my heart started burning.


Lord, what do you want me to do?  I started jotting down my story, thinking what in the world do i have to say to them? What have you done for me that sets me apart from someone that doesn't know you?


suddenly i realized that you're in control. if i ask, you'll give me the words. if i step back, you'll lead me. i must only be willing.

God's will is not a place of a position. Im convinced its an attitude of submission. - Nathan Smith
So here i am.

His face is stuck in my head, in my heart - pushing me on to meet the rest of those sitting beside me at the coffee shop, taking my money at the store, in the seat beside mine on the plane.

May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight O God.
