Anticipation is killing

Anyone like moving... anyone?  I know i do when it involves people who don't have tons and tons of junk.


I bring this up because my Sister and her hubby, along with the bun in the oven and the oh so cutie batooie nephew of mine are moving to a new and slightly bigger apartment.  I am not looking forward to moving a washer and drier and all of the heavy items, especially with my oh so good and non-hurting left leg. (Sarcasm anyone)  But besides not looking forward to moving the big and heavy items, i am excited that my sis and her husband have boxed up everything and have been moving little loads by little loads to the other apartment for a little over a week now.

I am pretty pumped about all that. :)

So besides getting family and friends together to help move... i am soooo looking forward to spending time with the whole family together.  I can not express the joy that i am having looking forward to hanging out with my nieces and nephews and with my brother and sister that lives over an hour away.    I mean some guitar hero will be had, some good food grilled up, and some fun times to add to the memory banks.

Hopefully some pictures will be added, if i take any, and as you may have noticed, it just kinda slips my mind.  I love pictures though, makes everything all pretty.

One last reason i am excited is because the family (dogs included) will be getting some presents.  I was fortunate enough to get some real Alaskan souvenirs... YAY!!! and so this weekend is also a representation of my mission trip coming that much more to a close... all though there is still a few surprises left.  Also, when i say my mission trip is coming to an end... i just mean this chapter of Alaska, i don't mean i am going to stop serving others and i don't mean by any means of the imagination that i wont go back.  In fact i have been going to this great college / 20's/ ministry at North Metro called Echo.  I am so excited that the college pastor Rob McDowell, listened and truly followed God with every way possible.  We started this series called 52 days and talked about Nehemiah and the rebuilding of the wall around Jerusalem in 52 days.  Long story short, asking God to crush our hearts for a BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal).

Last night, Thursday, God was crushing my heart for something.  I don't know what.  I know i have ideas and plans for what i want education wise, job wise, relationship wise, but honestly these ideas mean nothing.  They are fun and i love dreaming, but i know as i pursue God, i am HIS WILL.  I love that, as i pursue my heavenly father, i am his will.  But last night God was breaking me to serve, where... no clue, God was breaking me to love, who... i couldn't give you a specific, but i know that He is breaking me to be a man of Love and Service.  I know he is giving me a BHAG and i know he is leading me somewhere, and even though i dont know the ending location... and i am ok with that because i know that I am His will.

No clue about the future, just ideas and dreams, just... family and fun.
