Over My Head
Over My Head
Great song by the Fray, yet at the same time it’s an awesome adjective. I find myself in this situation often. I pull through everytime yet it has become a hassle. I guess being over your head is a part of Teen Mania life: It stretches you. Which is cool, but stressful sometimes. I’m starting to realize that my work here has become huge; more so than in the past. Last semester was wild ‘n crazy with SOW, HA, MP, amongst other things. However, this semester I’ve found myself working a month’s worth of weekends…thats 4 weekends in a row for all you non-mathematicians. Its crazy, I haven’t had a good sabbath in a while. The last one I must admit was glorious and was probably the best one the whole year. Matt, Cody, and myself enjoyed a Sunday morning at the Vineyard and chilled the rest of the evening at St. Arbucks. Free refills on Passion Tea with a splash of raspberry, and the mint seizure. The day was a glorious fall chill windy day: Windows down with some ambient tunes. Glory!
Monday night found me in the auditorium studying for a test the following day. I loved it; had the tunes flowing while reading. Lighting was set with just the back audi house lights on, yet dim. *Yes I’m going somewhere hold on!* So, I finished studying and totally just started sitting there in peace with Phil Wickham and maybe some Band Hammock. It was so refreshing, a legit quiet peace. I find these times are too few. So Matt showed up and we totally just sat there, listened, and had a legit conversation. I realized that moment was a breathing moment, where I was above the water. Yet it started once again the next morning at 7: Over My Head. And I am realizing that there is only 40 days left when I will enter the real world with my old friends, leaving the best friend in California. I’m living all the way in freaking Georgia, him in California. As we would say, “What the eff.” I need more of these moments. This weekend I’m feeling it coming. The auditorium is booked until 1 am. Late night with Jesus in the auditorium accompanied by Phil Wickham and Band Hammock: I can’t wait.
I don’t want to be reluctant about leaving! Shoot! I’m about to embark on a glorious journey, but.

but…
yeah. I know what you mean…
Time to ponder the real meaning of life…and what it’s all about. Hopefully it doesnt turn out to be the Hokey Pokey.
Real World? Old Friends? Sounds like you have got a solid friend. One that you can have for the rest of your life. Prov 27:17 NIV – As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. Like a Jonathan and David type of friendship. Jonathan’s friendship to David was such that he defied and betrayed his own father. In Hebrew culture, this was unthinkable. In today’s culture you seldom see Godly close friendships between men, but it seems to me you have one that could possibly start with you two and pass down to both your descendants for generations.
Make sure that you two NEVER forget Texas…i.e. remember the Alamo!
Sounds like M@ will be to you as Randy has been to me… But don’t lose touch like I did for a while. Delta is ready when you are… There are a lot of straight-a-ways between Ga and the mid-west where you guys could meet up at… and a Porsche is just a few prayers of faith away.
Who knows… Maybe M@ will like TGiving so much he will decide he has found a new home! I’m sure you two together would rock the status quo here…
