Midnight musings

12:49a.m....a little better, I guess.
Am I actually writing blog entires two nights in a row? During summer project time?! Amazing!
I'm still up late finishing my newsletter and preparing for discipleship tomorrow with Josiah.
I am really enjoying my times of discipleship with Josiah and Jeff. I never really realized how much I love discipleship and pouring into another person's life. It's kind of encouraging because I've never thought of myself as a people person before! But maybe that has a lot to do with God changing my heart.
He has certainly been convicting me that I need to love people more. Letting that subtle, yet powerful, truth sink in, has transformed me in more ways than I recognize. It's so amazing how living out your beliefs in one certain area can change the whole course of how you view life and the way you do things.
It's kind of a 'duh' statement to say that what you believe is how you will live. But I guess that doesn't really ever quite sink in until you really see it in action.
Obviously, believing in Christ guides the course of my actions, but I never thought just changing one small thought in my mind could steer the entire ship in an entirely different direction.
It's sort of like my mental rudder has been steered a few degrees and now I love people more and I enjoy spending time with them. I'm still really picky about who I do that with and still have a LONG way to go, but it's encouraging to see God change my heart and tune my sense differently to be thinking others-centered.
Wow...revolutionary. Very cool.
Anyways, all that said, I'm having a great time with the boys :) They are blessing me as I bless them. It's a beautiful thing.
Praise God for this summer. I've probably said it before, but I will say it again: I love my team! They are such a breath of fresh air and such a blessing to me. Every time I think of them, I pray with joy, thanking God for each one of them being here at Keynote right now, in my life.
Tomorrow night is blue sky nine's coffeehouse along with the open mic night. The last one is usually packed with lots of different acts since the students realize it's the last one of the summer!
Time to hit the hay...
