JESUS IS [MIDWINTER 2009]



this weekend was amazing. priceless. it def went by so fast. it was unbelievable. so i belive on saturday i was feeling the need to write something down for the blog. but it didnt turn out so good. and i ended up writing it down on sunday morning. because of the deep small group that we shared on sat. with blane. noah. and stevie. probably the best small group i have ever had. period.

friday.
consisted of. going to school. and giving my gf her vday presetn of a hugee stuffed animal. priceless. haha. so we headed up. and lets jus say the start of retreat was a total opposite of what we were gunna get that weekend. being up to 3:30 helping carry luggage up a hill because of the busses being stuck. was a humbling experience. that serving was for God.

saturday.
i have no idea. so many things go on.
tobe serious i wasnt feeling the speaker.
the morning sessions simple message is . that we cant know Jesus without having our own personal relationship with him.
thenn we had a snowball fight for prettymuch all of free time. haa.
the night session. the idea of "letting it go" that we had to let the things go that held us away from God. and i let go my problem with porn.
talking with nicko that night was real good because ive missed talking to him so muchh
that night . blane. stevie. noah. and i. had the best small group i have ever had. the ammount of sharing and support was amazing. i couldnt have asked for anything more.
i stayed up till 3 to talk to malea. cuz i missed her and she was missing me bad.

sunday.
morning session. i volunteered to be uhh example for the speaker. [see above pic]. and what she said about me. made me smile. and feel really good about myself. she said. that shes seen me around & that something about me made me want her to be able to meet me. that i seemed like a cool guy. that was an amazing compliment. i couldnt help but go up to her after and talk to her for a little bit about twloha. and then i offered for lunchh. spending lunchh with her was really cool. i jus wish i coulda had more time to talk deeper with her. i feel like there was so much i could have learned from her. just all of her knowledge of God seemed.. amazing.

that dayy.i chilled with lizzie. and michelle. most of the time during free time and talkin with random people around the way was real chil.

night time session. transformation.
we took communion. which was amazing.
priceless. no words to descrive communion.
talking with nicko again was good.
it was real nice to talk to erika in person about things.

then that night we jus had a chill small group. jus laughed our butts off.
then me and noah went over to pats cabin for intense truthordare. till 3.

written on sunday-
" i was thinking that i needed to get my thoughts on this peice of paper to blog this in attempt to get some...ideas out i guess.

i need to remember this feeling of connection & that i NEED to seek out this connection daily.

there are no words to describe the feeling of connection with God. "

monday-
got up dead tired.
had breakfast. and pretty much left
monday went by way to fast.
i didnt get to say goodbye to anyone :[

got home and my nap turned into me sleeping for 14hrs .

We are all lost in the sound of separation
Hands in the air and love at our sides
There's gotta be something bigger
With the beating in our throats
And the tremble in our grip
This can't be it
I'll come up for peace
I'll come down for truth
I'll give in, I'll give up for you
The floors are shaking
And we've lost our step
Oh Lord, have mercy on us all


this weekend. i gave up for HIM because HE is AMAZING
