my brain hurts!

I am aware that I haven’t been great about keeping up with my blog, and for that I apologize. Every time I sit down to do it, I don’t even know where to begin. Spending all day everyday reading the Bible, praying, and worshipping is crazy intense. Most of the time my brain hurts! Tonight I truly began to understand the quote, “The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.” So much of the Bible is impossible for our human minds to wrap around. The mysteries and wonders of God blow my mind (in a good way). But it can also be overwhelming. I could spend years just researching some of the debatable topics and trying to figure out exactly what I believe about them and why. God has to remind me, as for tonight, just go back to the basics.

He wants me to glorify him with my life. He wants me to know him, and make him known. He wants me to experience the fullness of his love, and live in obedience to his word. As I seek to know God more and more all these things are becoming my desires as well.

“One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple.”

It rained pretty much all weekend, so unfortunately I didn't get to go to the beach. But, it was nice to catch up on some sleep and relax and watch movies. Here's a picture I took on my way to McDonalds. Hawaii's nickname: the rainbow state is so appropriate, I see rainbows all the time.

Today during our team time we learned a hula dance, and some skits we are going to take on outreach. One was to the song lead me to the cross, it's powerful. I love it.

Okay, that's all I have for now. Thanks for reading my blog!
