Months ago I was visiting my sister in another state. I met some really cool people while I was there, and most likely I won't see any of them again. I wrote this after a really cool experience, but never posted it. So here it is now.
One Sunday while I was visiting, we were at church, my sister goes to a pretty big church, you know one with a main floor and a big balcony type second story to fit more people. And this awesome worship song was on, I had never heard it before. Although now I've heard it and sung it many times:
"Our God is greater
Our God is stronger
God you are Higher than any other
Our God is Healer
Awesome in Power
Our God
Our God"
- Chris Tomlin, Our God
For the first time I got a glimpse of Heaven. Every christian I have ever met will be there, even the ones I only knew for a few minutes or days. And we will be really worshiping. Truly truly. Full of God's love for him and for each other.
I know there are negative thoughts that can branch off of that. And questions and details. And perhaps it is a little disconnected for your topic. But it is the story that came to mind with this post. There is so much soft, powerful, joy in this memory for me. I hope it comes across at least a little.
Think about it in terms of you, all the people you love terribly, and your best worship memory. Blend it together with whatever strongest sense of God's presence you can think of. That was my taste of heaven.
Which maybe makes it a little more okay to say goodbye sometimes.

A summer Blog
All right. I haven't been on in so long, perhaps I've forgotten how to blog. haha :). Well, I've been busy, camp, back yard bible club, VBS, and this week basketball camp which I'm helping run so lots of stuff to do, i love it. yay! hmmm, I'm unsure what else to write. I'll never catch up on all your blogs, so I'm sorry for that, I'll probably be off again for a while, but maybe not. I love all this kids stuff, though I'm not as good with them as the majority of my friends, i just don't have as much experience. ah well, hat is what my life consists of, as the end of summer and of my life in youth draws closer, very sad. No more thoughts on that yet.

Books Book Books
Summer is the time when I just kick back and read. In the last two weeks, about, I've read 7 books, and one of them I read twice. That's about all I've been up to lately, although that is all going to change soon, I have Camp starting sunday, and then soon after that things will be very interesting, but untill then i plan to fill the days with cleaning and reading. Hopefully I'll get my stuff all organized and such. Ah so much to do seemingly. Yet so little when I try to do it. Ha ha :)
