welcome home

name of this really cool song that i heard about 20 times last night. its actually a really bad song but the guitar in that song blows my mind. we went to party for grant last night. it was fun. i missed hanging out with those people. there was wii, worship, and chalk. good times. i like when good stuff happens. im usually a pessimistic but i love when im just happy about stuff. like when i was taking pics of manda, evie, and rae draw on Dave's driveway. those 3 are about as different as night and day, but the total picture that was put together on the blocks of his driveway fit together like pieces of a puzzle. they were all different but together they were a masterpiece (or i thought anyways).


under one of rae's drawing she wrote the words "what a beautiful God there must be."


looking at the people around us, the pieces of art these girls were drawing, and at the fellowship we have, i can't help but agree. Can anyone remember the most beautiful sunset they have seen with their own eyes? i remember a few. one when i was driving home from Denver with a friend. the clouds were a bright yellow against the blue sky. it was gorgeous.


another time, it had been raining during uprising. the courts and ground where still wet but the clouds parted and the sun shone through illuminating the clouds.


i remember how in awe i was of them. now i sit and think.... God is like a billion quadrillion times more beautiful sunsets. i know i can never fully comprehend all that but it helps when i see the little things that He shows us of beauty. He gave us sunsets, lightning storms, rain, flowers, waterfalls, clouds, and the stars. yet sometimes, we get so busy that we fail to see the beauty in the busyness. when those times come, we need to just stop, breathe, and open our eyes to see what God has placed before our eyes especially for us. He really is a beautiful God.
