This weekend was really nice. The weather was perfect (if felt like spring) and the company was wonderful.
Saturday, Regina and I drove up to Cal State Northridge to see an extremely talented young man run. I'd never been to a track meet before and had a blast watching people jump, run and throw things. That night, after getting back to OC, a small group of us did a movie and popcorn at my Mom's. It was a good day.
Sunday, I went to church with my new friend K. The lesson was on the mustard seed...how small and insignificant it seems but how it will grow into a huge, flowered bush that birds will perch on. I feel so much like a mustard seed right now...so small but with this huge desire to grow. After service, K and I had lunch and then I went for a trail ride. Kalvin went right over the bridge without any spinning (hooray)! Then, last night, I met Regina and two of her friends at Newport Church for worship night. Imagine a bar/club that just the night before was filled with people drinking and doing all the other stuff that comes along with partying...and imagine that place being packed tight with youth who have a passion for the Lord. Now, picture a band spouting out rockin' music and almost the entire room of people jumping up and down with their arms raised, singing at the top of their lungs to God. Incredible.
Now, back to Monday. It's not as painful as most Mondays though -- I'll be taking tomorrow off to go to Disneyland with Regina and K. Fun!

“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!” - Jack Kerouac
“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence... We need silence to be able to touch souls." - Mother Teresa
