a-hem, a-hem (also known as the throat-clearing sound before you make an announcement)

so, it looks like the future may not be quite as elusive as i had thought. in other words, i'm trying to say that i might have a small picture of "what the crap is next", in the words of myself and brett, my fellow clueless senior. it looks as if i really will be moving to birmingham and attending beeson divinity school! i'm excited, anxious, and ready to see what God does next, even though leaving is going to be a whole lot harder that i ever imagined. i've even been able to contact a potential roommate and definite future classmate, which gives me tons of encouragement about God's plan in whatever craziness is next.

tonight at BCM we sang one of my favorite songs, "jesus paid it all." two lines of that song are quite haunting:

"and when, before the throne, i stand in Him complete/Jesus died my soul to save, my lips shall still repeat"

what a beautiful picture--that i would live repeating this beautiful truth. and yet, so many times, we forget the HUGENESS of His sacrifice

"oh praise the One who paid my debt, and raised this life up from the dead..."

yes...praise Him. God is so good, all the time.
