What a crazy week!

Its been an interesting time, I have to say. My parents are getting home from Colorado today, and I cant wait to see them. I will miss having Tristin around like 24/7, and his "Cooking Show", but it will be nice to get back to normality. My house has just about become a train wreck without anyone here cleaning it, kind of hard just to pop into the habit of cleaning stuff when you see it. Books went pretty well, We got most of our orders out but were this more of a long term thing there may have been problems.
Labour(?) Day was just great! the picnic was alot smaller than it has been in past years, but it was still fun, and the Sidewalk Prophets concert was simply incredible! Im totally glad I went. I find it incredible that their music and Josh's words beforehand really brought my mind to a new part of Gods love. That he created me the way I am and has loved me far before I was even born. I dont need to be anyone else for him, He loves ME... And I want to let him have every part of me!
I really didnt expect the day to be like that... the picnic was less then i had expected and the concert, far more! quoting Grant McCurdy in his song "Deja Vu", "Without preconceptions, theres never any reason to frown" so true... whatever i think something is going to be like could be totally off... if i expect it to be amazing it may fall short... if i expect it to be kind of lame it may just blow me away.... and if I just let it come I think it will be best.
Not very focused today im afraid... but its what i get for staying up working.
See all the Mission folks on friday!

Yay! =) I'm glad you had a fun time. =) Hehe. =) I had allot of fun at the Labor Day picnic, but it was mostly just when I was playing guitar. =) That's all I really wanted to do. =) Idk. =) Anyway, I'm really glad you did end up coming to the concert and enjoyed it. =) Have a wonderful week!

I know right?! I'm glad your parents are home, because I missed Tristin being around here! But yeah, wasn't Monday totally great?! I see what you're saying about preconceptions, makes perfect sense. I like ALWAYS have an idea of how something is going to be, and atleast 50% of the time I'm wrong. Oh well, I guess that's just what we get for being finite humans.

But WOW! Wasn't the whole concert thing great?! I find it "easy" to understand God will love me for eternity >>>> that way >>>>. (Like now and the future). But to think that He HAS loved me for eleverlasting <<<<< THAT way,<<< as well, just boggles my mind! BEFORE the creation of the world! WOW!! It was a great reminder of how amazing God's EVERLASTING love is for each and every one of His children!

And correlating perfectly with what we then talked about on Friday night, our love for God and for others should then flow from our understanding of much HE loves us! It's like lovely little love fest! WHOOHOO!

See ya later David!!! :)
