Clothes!!!

Here is a website that sells really hip christian t-shirts. We just ordered some. My favorites are "May I pray for You" and "I will Dance for You".

new church

Last Sunday I went to a new church.

(Coincidentally, is it cheating to go to a different church? I thought about it and decided that we are both groups of Jesus people, but we focus on different stuff, so it's ok.)

Anyways, this is an assembly of God church, a Pentecostal church. I was raised a Baptist, so this is a little different.

I loved it! Worship was open and spontaneous, and it felt real. They where talking about worship - its actions and purpose - as shown in the Bible! Just like I've been thinking and wondering about. So I think it was really Jesus' plan for me this Sunday. But I'm not sure about all the rest of the Sundays - I don't know how much of this church's message I believe.

They believe in speaking in tongues, healing, etc. Part of me just wants to dismiss some of that, but I think its just because it isn't something I was taught. I don't really know . . . and I know I need to get talking to my buddy Jesus and figure out what He thinks about it.

So, that's where I'm at. Trying to learn from God in his word and from His mouth. Trying to differentiate between what He is telling me and what I've just absorbed from those around me. I think this might take a while, and I think it will be an adventure.

lazy

Ok, so I guess I'm a pretty lazy type blogger - hardly ever write, etc. So I'm going to stick with my image and post a link!

I found this really cool worship band (I like 'em, anyways :). It's good to hear music that is directed simply at God, from the perspective of one of His kids.

just thinking . . .

Here is what I've been thinking about lately;

How do you know where (or if) God is sending you? And, how much does it matter that you know, since He can use you anywhere you are?

I just keep thinking that even if I'm doing a good thing, I might be missing out on the best things.

I don't know, and that is tough for me because I like to know to be in control. I think Jesus is teaching me to trust and follow Him, no matter what. I hope I prove a fast learner!
