Well the song of the blackbird is mighty clear...

On a mornin’ such as this
And all those useless pains & fears
Those things that i won’t miss

And the Morning Glories and Queen Anne’s lace
Baptized by the wind
These inspirations are my saving grace
In these times we’re living in

Make a hard man humble
Make a proud woman hide
Her eyes from the light of day

Today I woke up in a funk. Didn't really wanna move from my bed. Didn't want to go to work... every once in awhile this happens. But I got up.. washed away the funk physically and spiritually. Just takes some discipline I guess. Today is Ash Wednesday... whooo hooo. That was sarcasm if you didnt catch it. I had been trying to prep myself for Lent. Not sure Im gonna fast from anything.. Im really not gonna fast in worldly guidelines. When God prepares my heart for a fast I will but I don't think it is time for me. My prayers are with the ones fasting.. hopefully He will open your eyes and hearts to some new and exciting things. Or maybe he will break down some high walls you have built up around your self. humm. Anyways Ive been working on some art pieces excited to get my thoughts and ideas out on something and not so crammed in my head. Im reading again.. that's always good. I hated forced reading in school but now I appreciate the knowledge and brain teasers.


I have had some girls on my brain... I miss them. Miss their insight and our interaction. Smiley faces and random moments. Hope they are doing ok. I can only reach out so far. Im grabbing dinner with one of them tonight. Ministry has also been something swimming around in my thoughts. Am I doing it right? Am I giving and doing what God wants of my life? Am I being the example? or am I complaining and waiting for someone else to do it? Am I where Im supposed to be? Do I give up to easily? Am I really doing anything for the souls at stake? Doubt is dirty and unhealthy. But I don't think Im doubting I think God is placing these thoughts on my mind for a reason. Food for thought.

think on these things
8-9Summing it all up, friends, I'd say you'll do best by filling your minds and meditating on things true, noble, reputable, authentic, compelling, gracious—the best, not the worst; the beautiful, not the ugly; things to praise, not things to curse. Put into practice what you learned from me, what you heard and saw and realized. Do that, and God, who makes everything work together, will work you into his most excellent harmonies.

You are totally right about the fasting. Wait until God moves you to fast. In my experience, that is the only way to succeed at it. If it is not God's desire, its not gonna happen.
