Feelin GOOD

I am feelin great. I feel so good I decided to blog it. Thats good.

Nothing external has changed to bring about this "goodness". I keep remembering these things that I forget, remembering important truths that bring me back to Jesus, and that gets me to feelin GOOD!

Driving back from the Video Games Live concert, which was cool for sure, I was wondering if it was really a wise thing for me to go. It cost money and I missed more school because of it (Although I had bought tickets before I decided to go back to school this semester...) and so on the way back I was just weighing all these things in my mind. I listened to Romans twice and some good verses jumped out at me. The righteous live by faith, We are justified by faith, Anything that does not come from faith is sin, and that we should always be patient with those who seem to have less faith (or understanding or wisdom or whatever spiritual trait) because God has chose them.

Then I listened to some Mars Hill Seattle with Mark Driscoll. (Every single thing I have heard from this church is absolutely solid, and surprisingly funny. www.marshillchurch.org, get the podcast!) IT was a sermon about worship. I won't go into detail, but it got me thinking about what I have been worshipping lately. Not always Jesus. Then it got me thinking about how EVERYTHING I do can and IS supposed to be worship to Jesus. And then that started getting me excited, because I absolutely LOVE worshipping Jesus! I love it I love it I love it! Its like my life source, its like air. If I don't get it, everything starts to suck to a certain degree. Everything tastes bland, everything is a little off. And things have been feeling slightly off for a while now, some things WAY off. And so this whole realization that its a matter of worship in everthing, and that I have a choice. I can't choose much of what lot I have in life, but I can always choose to make Jesus first, to worship him first. Its an opportunity.

And that is when you find yourself experiencing the abundant life of Christ, because Jesus is worthy of all glory and all worship, and when our lives are a resounding agreement to that truth, we are close to paradise, for when the kingdom of God comes, there will be nothing to hold us back, nothing to distract us, nothing to hinder us from worshipping Jesus. All obstacles will be removed, and Jesus will finally be exalted to the fullness and volume he rightly deserves.

Dang I feel good :)
