Today was pretty great. and it's not even over yet.
I have a swollen lip from gettting hit in he face by a light up frisbee... you think I would've seen it coming... But, it could be worse. I could've had no arms and still had to stop the frisbee... for the entire game. and anyway, that happened yesterday, I just thought that I'd tell everyone so they can stare at the swelling :)
Anyway,
this post is about the weather, and how odd it is. Instead of listening to music I'm listening to the wind rush past my closed window, pretty much the best sound... Even though fighting like a man beating the air has a negative connotation, I literally did just that to get to class today because the wind was so intense...
and apparently there is a crazy thunder storm that is supposed to happen... The kids at the college next door were warned not to take showers because the lightening can allegedly go though the water...
yep...
Soo...Today I was posed a very interesting question. A question that came from a book:
Why do I want the Holy Spirit?
If you're not a christian and reading this read Romans 8 first...
But, thinking about it now, it shouldn't be why want Him but rather, why I need Him.
You know that feeling that you get when you watch an epic action adventure movie, or listen to a crazy instense took alot of talent to create song or listen to a gutwrenching motivational speech? That yearning to do something so much greater and so much more epic and meaningful with your life? yep? Well, you can only acheive that something greater with the Holy Spirit. I realized that I need the Holy Spirit in order to live life the way that God calls me to live it, the way He planned it out for me. Wouldn't you rather save people's lives than climb Mt. Kilimanjaro (even though that would be epic...)? With God, and having the Holy Spirit, I can change lives and through that change, I can change the world... but when I say I, I really mean God :)
So yeah, the answer to that question is because I want to do epic things with my life, epic things that fly off the charts for the human standards of greatness.
