ch-ch-ch-changes! turn to face the strange ch-ch-change-uh-es!

notice anything different? :)

the blog name changed, and so did the description. (of course, i love both the old title and description... "a rose by any other name" and "life is a short, fevered rehearsal for a concert which we cannot stay to give.")

but i felt like change. i have absolutley no reason for the change. nothing monumental happened in my life. i just thought it'd be cool.

i often go through bouts where i want to cut my hair. my dad always tells me it means something in my emotional relm is changing. that could be it.. or i could be just wanting to cut my hair. (which is still up for debate.)

i must admit, there was a slight emotional change. i have been going through spiritual realizations lately and it has been great.

the title comes from Matthew 6:25-34, and it goes something like this --

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27 And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?[g] 28 And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29 yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

34 “Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

i guess i was just hoping that this blog could be a reminder to not worry. and then within that comes the blog description (2 Corinthians 3:3) which i think is beautifully worded by Paul to just illustrate how much our lives are really supposed to be for Christ and how personal his love is for us and how He wants us to share that love with others. so personal... He wrote us with His own hand, we are His own letters.

this blog is and always will be for everyone, and i hope those descriptions show how God's love is just the same.

  1. Hey just wanted to say how much I appreciate you doing this blog. I recently found this blog like 2 weeks ago and one night I read from your most recent (at the time "The ipod shuffling one) back to the beginning of 2011 / end of 2010. There were so many things that spoke directly to me. One of the main things I appreciate is that you are so honest it's disarming and beautiful. I am blessed to be able to sit in while your heart speaks words that are so profound that I am left only too re-read them again. I pray God would continue to allow His words flow out to bless many more.
