The fool on the hill

I love how God works. I have figured out that if there is something I need to learn or if there’s something He’s trying to tell me, I get it in repetition. Same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. I think it’s cool.
As I figure myself out more and more, I have come to find how self-centered I am. When I drove back to school, I listened to a sermon by Matt Chandler called Freedom vs. Narcissism. It totally makes sense that these two ideas are in conflict with each other. How can we be free with Christ if we’re stuck on ourselves? I also just read a chapter in a book called Crazy Love that was titled Profile of the Lukewarm. Basically, the lukewarm Christian is selfish and comfortable. So as I process this and try to cleanse myself of it (a long and painful process) I ask everyone to be patient with me. Also, if you have not read Crazy Love, I highly recommend it.
On another note, I hate money and big companies. Warner Bros. will make plenty of money off of Harry Potter in November, so why do they have to move it to July?? Gah.

He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose – J.Elliot Really over quoted, but in this case appropriate. Keep seeking to become uncomfortable, and you will reap so many blessings, Leah. I love you!

i know, the only downfall is zoology but it’s not really even that big of a downfall. i’m sad we don’t have any classes together this semester, we’ll have to change that with music in the cinema next sem.
