| The Meaning of Life |
| 05.23.05 (1:45 pm) [edit] |
Life is all about God. He is the only one that will last. Last night, I was laying down in my tornado of a room, and I felt so lonely, like I hadn't seen God in a while. I said, "God, please, come into my room and be with me tonight." I really missed Him, and I know that was my own fault.
Like, with praise and worship, it doesn't matter how many people can be in the santuary, it's only me and God in there. It is a definately intimate moment. It's so rare to have that with people. I can't worry about that anyways. It doesn't matter. We are all made of dirt anyways, so why should I strive to dirt level? That is definately one thing that I learned this year. There is ONLY God. He is it. Bottom line. Case and point. Searching for intimacy through people is so dissapointing, and it can lead to chronic depression. Stick with God and you'll always stick.
Life is not always going to be full of thrills. Everyday isn't gonna be a thrill ride. There are too many responsibilities, problems, and cares to deal with. That is why, when we are in God's presence, they all disappear. It's an entirely new dimension. Oh, I should have been at church on Sunday! I really needed it (esspecially for this week). So, yeah, if you wanna know the meaning to life, then here it is: God made you. You are here for His pleasure. He loves you, and the intimacy that you are looking for is in Him alone. Stop trying to find it from other things. It ain't there. If you really want it, ask Him, and mean it with your whole heart. In Jesus' Name...

"With our gifts, we exalt Thee, merciful, wonderful, God."
That is one of the best lyrics I have ever heard, and it is so simple. I don't know what has been going on around here lately (and BTW, I have been up at Nationott everyday). A few months ago, I would have, with excitement, went to the "Impartation" conference. I mean, could there have been a more convinient time, or even a more convinient place?! I'm sick, physically. Yesterday, I felt this thick film of phlegm in the back of my nose. I couldn't get rid of it, so I kinda suffered through it the entire day. I had a great day yesterday, don't get me wrong, but it was the first night of the conference, and I was gonna go...if I was lead.
I knew that it was gonna be broadcast on tv, so instead of sleeping through it live, I came home, and watched it on the computer. From what I saw, and I am only saying this from what I saw, something wasn't right. I know these people, hey, I grew up with these people, but why are they not seeing what I am seeing, or is it just me? When I go up there this afternoon (and might probably stay for the night service) I'm gonna ask Air what she thought of it. Not saying that her opinion makes mine (because we hardly EVER agree on anything), but it matters to me so much. I wanna hear what she has to say.
Besides all of that stuff, school has been great. None of my classmates, with the exception of the employed ones, have been up to Nationott. I have had some GREAT conversation, and have been very relaxed. God showed me immense favor in Physics (I got an A!), and I also got favor in Pre-Cal (a 'C'!). Everything has been great. It's so much more fun knowing your peers and supervisors as people. That professional relationship gets so ACK at times.
Well, I'm gonna go lay down because I have a bad headache. I need to get some sleep as well, because you never know what I might be doing tonight.

Friday was our last day of school. Graduation is the 25th and after 14 years at Nationott, the bell has finally sounded. Amazing. Utterly.
