Sometimes Freddie Mercury quotes just find their way into the real world, & I'm not really sure how.. I often assume only few people get me when I type the miscellaneous thoughts inhabiting my mind. I wonder if it's sort of like scrolling through a slide show of obscure photos presented to a blind audience. Appreciation can only go so far. But there a few with working eyes in whom I much love & appreciate. We have similar functionality, & maybe this is why. I'm not belittling the blind whatsoever, because they operate in a way I myself am foreign to. We are unequally equal.
*I really like peppermint tea. It's like melting down a tube of Burt's Bees chapstick & ingesting it from a mug. Amazing. If Icy Hot were drinkable, I bet it provide me with a similar euphoric response.
*Laura Hackett is a phenomenal worship leader. I don't think I can ever get sick of No One Else, & I will probably put up a link to it if I can find a good version so you can love it with me.
*I want to be used by God in ways that fulfills the dreams He has given me, as well as ways I cannot even comprehend.
*Erwin McManus has a way with word pictures that is so glorious it's terrifying.
*Sometimes I think it would be funny to raid the thrift stores & dollar stores, buying as many cheap candles as they will sell me. Then I will strategically line them up near all of the windows at my home & leave them lit for hours at a time. I will probably accompany this with burning incense as well. Then I might fashion a loose-fitting outfit from some floral tablecloth I find somewhere & spend much time with the Lord. People will probably think I'm crazy or demonized, but I can always trump their suspicion by telling them the Lord is taking me through a specific season, & I just really like good smells & comfortable clothing. Living like the Blue Raja would just be a plus.
*I sometimes wonder what the Lord wants to do in Iceland.
*I'm glad that Bill Johnson has a podcast called God: The Ultimate Body Snatcher. It reminds me of the time Mike Bickle beat-boxed for a 60 something year old woman rapping about Hell. Then I think about Pastor John performing the Walker Texas Ranger theme at Green Lake, & I am reminded of how blessed I am to be under some of the most amazing leadership possible.
*Just knowing the Lord's nearness refreshes my soul, as well as meditating on His goodness.
*Sometimes I wonder if winter is a result of the fall of man - Eden doesn't sound like it was a snowy wonderland. I bet Adam would have worn insulated galoshes if it were though, He seems like a galosh type. Nonsense boots.
*I'm pretty excited for the annual Green Lake, WI trip this year. Hopefully this year Kellie Robinson & I will not make a 17 layer dirt cake complete with gummy sharks (earthsharks I suppose, like earthworms but way more intense). I hope to high five Randy Clark.
*I am so blessed to be in the midst of this Kansas City awakening. I often forget how fortunate I am, & I feel the significance of it is deeper & greater than I have come to know.
