Repent, again.

I repent of parading my liberty
I repent of paying for what i get for free
The way i believe that i am living right
By trading sins for others that are easier to hide 
I am wrong and of these things i repent

I repent judging by a law that even i can't keep
Wearing righteousness like a disguise to see through
The planks in my own eyes

I repent of trading truth for false unity
I repent of confusing peace and idolatry
Of caring more of what they think than what I know of what they need
And domesticating You until You look just like me
I am wrong and of these things i repent
- I repent, Derek Webb.

Second Story
You're that Way

And hey, school's about over for this semester.
I guess my xanga activity shows you how this semester has gone.
Nothing profound to say...simply, I'm absolutely ready to be done with people.  No offense, all y'all...but, I'm ready for some good time away from school in the quiet of my apartment or a coffee shop.

School...?

Definitely back to school- we're doing training for RA/CA things.  We spent nearly 3 days in Chicago- so much fun.  We went to the Art Institute of Chicago...highlight of the trip.
Back at school- more training.  I'm moved into the house- I love it!  It's big and gorgeous. 
I've bought all my books...so all those big expenses are not to be worried about.  It's good to get it all out of the way.  They weren't too expensive this year...about $300 for the semester.
Kinda crazy to be ready for school....
And we're going to Canada for a week starting Saturday morning!

Almost home...

I'm sitting at the Phoenix airport waiting to get on my plane...the security checkpoint took forever- so much bigger than GR

Hard to believe this summer is over.  It was challenging but such a tremendous blessing.  I know I'm going to miss Katie, Adam, the kids....Bryan....Carlie...  It was definitely a good summer.  I'm not a great photographer, so I don't have many pictures, but I have a few. It is beautiful here...a lot less conservative than at home, by the way.  I'm read to see the lakes again, but I will for sure miss the mountains, the dry heat...

Anyways.  I don't have that many words.  I'm almost home...busy week (month) (semester) ahead...but...I keep resting in God's faithfulness.

AMAZING

God absolutely blows my mind sometimes.
    - I prayed that God would take over the apartment search, because I GAVE up and was SO frustrated.  Two days later or so, my Father calls with the PERFECT place, with people I love and trust, and it's affordable.  Absolutely amazing. I sent in the deposit today.  God is phenomenal.

    - Other things- I pray, and God answers the next day.  Or I say, God, lead.  And then amazing things happen.

I love it here- yes, it's hard, but it's been more than a month and I'm starting to get used to it.  I'm starting to get out a little more, and I'm starting to make better friends.  It's kinda exciting.  I think I'll be leaving some of my heart here- to the mountains, the amazing skies, the little city of Prescott.  It's so friendly- GR can be, but not like this.  I do miss the bigger city, but...this small town has captured bits of my heart.  So have the people here- all the people at PineRock- Steve, Ruth and Marv, Pat, obviously the Reid's, Johnny, Carlie, Bryan, Karen....so many people.

When I left BLBC, I felt like God was saying my time there was finished- I needed to move on.  Right now, as I was telling a friend the other day, I feel as though God is saying my summer here is nearly over, but my time in Prescott isn't.  I don't know if I'll be back next summer or not, I don't know if it's merely a visit, but I feel like there's more for me here- that God has a bigger plan than just this summer.  So we'll see where it goes...where I go, what my role or my place in Arizona is.

I feel full of life, though.  Something I haven't felt in a very long time.  Maybe it's the rest, maybe the time with God.  Whatever it is, I'm full of joy, and so happy to be alive.
