Spare me some time to reflect. I will say that I feel like i've changed a ton from the david lasley of last Christmas break. I don't think it's really possible to list stuff like that on a blog. But i do want to say that it freaks me out to see such crazy changes and wonder what i'll look like next year at this time.
I've been encouraged by two blogs recently. This one and this one talked about some very important stuff. Take a look at them if you get the chance.
...unless you're either of those two people...
...then you can just sit around and eat nachos.
I don't have much to say. In reflection on the past, the first blog (john) says it best. God remained the same. His love is amazing, steady and unchanging. With regards to now--I love the second blog(erin) -- the prayer of simply knowing Him this year and from here on out.
My prayer comes from those two blogs i guess.
that I would be honest to Him and myself about my failures, fears, anxieties, doubts, and uncertainties. that i would recognize that He remains and His grace is sufficient.
that I would seek after Him.
"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[m] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Romans 8:38,39
I'm getting excited about this semester. I miss you guys.
have a good one :)

p.s.--I am headed to Hibbing, MN tomorrow. the hometown of none other than Bob Dylan. It is also the hometown of the music store which sold me(well...my dad/me...we split the cost...it was a birthday present...) my first/current guitar. Furthermore, the neighboring town is Chisholm. This should ring some bells to anyone who has seen the movie Field of Dreams w/ Kevin Costner.
no?
...sigh....
losers :)

nice work...
I've always thought it would be cool to visit that field after I see the movie, but then I remember how much I loathe David Lasley, which is weird because the first time I saw the movie was like 7-10 years ago
Jeff: The field itself is actually in Iowa. Chisholm comes into the movie when Costner is running all over the United States trying to find people and all that. I think Moonlight Graham was who he was looking for in Chisholm. I think there's an old theatre that they walk into or walk by or something. Anyway the downtown is "famous" because of this scene in the movie.
and it's ok jeff. I came out of the womb saying "jeff black is ugly"
...i still say it sometimes.
oh and i love you :)
