Mel's Puddle of Thought

"... And I have to speculate that God himself Did make us into corresponding shapes like Puzzle pieces from the clay :: from "such great heights", track two on the postal service's album "give up" :: Sunday, July 27, 2003 It's too hot to do anything. Too hot to think. The past two weeks have been chaos. Wow... when did the blogger format change? The conference was absolutely beyond words. Although I am still finding myself compleately drained, I can't wait for the next one. Unoffically, we are working towards doing two worship conferences next year, one on the Saddleback Campus and then recreating in on the East coast, as a seperate intenty from the Super Conference, which kicks off this October. My mom wants to go through 40 Days of Purpose (Our website, some parts of which I did) with the Vineyard out there, which thrills me to no end. Finally, she can see what I do and why I love it. And I can't help but feeling like I am a part of that. I'm going to have Rick sign her a copy. Maybe more than one. I just got back from house-sitting for a coworker who lives in Orange, at the base of the hill where the Orange County Mining Compay is. Tom and I lived there together for a week before he had to leave for Avon to see his family. He'll be back tomorrow morning, as will Dad and April, who are currently on a cruise. The house-sitting gig was fun, but also very serious, I mean, not the house sitting thing itself, but the things that happended while we were there. You wouldn't think so, but it was way different from him visiting me here at the house. I realized a lot of things, one that I'm going to marry him, and that hit me pretty hard. I think he's already known for a while, but its pretty major for me. Sometimes I forget that Tom's still in that exited phase of Christianity that I somehow missed, and so that was cool to be around. Made me feel old, like I don't know the answers and I should, but it helped me to remember that I have a lot of growing to do. And it showed me that Tom and I have a lot of spiriatual growing to do together. Greg Laurie guest-spoke today @ Saddleback. Greg does the Harvest Cruisade. Oh, for anyone who reads this before 8-10 Aug., I'll probably be going as an usher, and as a person for sure. If you want to go, want a ride, want someone to sit with, let me know!! I'll be glad to do anything =). Oh, and MercyMe is going to be there, also Tommy Walker, which is cool for me because they were both at the Worship Conference, and I am now forever attached to them. I suppose that's it for me, since this probably rarely gets read, seeing as how it's been more than a month since I've posted. I love you all!! this written by Mel at 3:13 PM	links to people: :: beverly's homepage :: :: beverly's journal :: :: tom's blog :: :: my blog's name is jennifer ... mackenzie's journal :: :: insanity is contagious...kunal's journal :: :: gary's kustace :: links to music: :: something corporate's official Site :: :: david crowder band :: :: dave matthews band :: :: dave matthews in brazil :: :: the get up kids :: :: further seems forever :: :: relient k :: links to neat stuff: :: it's walky!
