Crashed at Jess's. It was fun, actually finished a movie. We tried watching princess diaries three times, and never even made it halfway. I woke up early, if you concider eight early. Sat and talked to Kristen, for a while. She's so inspiring. Just waiting on God, eduring boredom for the sake of the kingdom. Feeling static and unchallenged, but content with who she is and what God mader her to be. That is the kingdom of heaven. Bringing light to the dark places. She works at a pre-school in Holland. Amazing with children. She tells me stories about how she is bad at her job, she is the co-director, and the children try to get in trouble so they they can go visit Miss Kristen.
Scriptural ideal: What would it be like if the kingdom of God crashed into the kingdom of earth.
Jess woke up at like 11:30, I wish I could have. We watched Moonstruck, "I don't want to talk about it."
I came to an awkward realization. Jess is not only one of the best friend I've ever had, she is also one of the most amazing people I've ever known... Period!!! Everything from prepping the couch for me, to sending me a lean cousine for dinner at work. She is just a person I can be myself around. I feel like I will spend the next years of my life looking for her clone. She makes me wish that a groom could just have groom's people in stead of goomsmen. I'll probly just ask my fiance to let her be a bride's maid, don't know if that is wierd or not, don't really care.
Got asked by the lovely and talented miss Collins to do an art project. I don't know what I'm going to do yet, but it has to depict forgiveness, submit any ideas as comments.
I new friend was in at java. Wrestling with what it means to wait on God. What it means to prepare for a call that is uncertain. To make a key for a lock with secret tumblers. And where to go when nothing is revealled. I have been wrestling with such a question myself. I have begun to come to the conclusion that if God gave us the whole vision we would never have reason to use our faith. I guess our lives are like a scroll, all of its contents known, and guided, but not all unravelled. Fascinated.

Thought for today: What if I could life today with the hope of bringing a little bit more of the kingdom of heaven to earth, to bring a little of God to my life.
