will the sun come out tomorrow?
Out of James 4 NIV
13Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." 14Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. 15Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that." 16As it is, you boast and brag. All such boasting is evil. 17Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins.
i am empty in hoping that tomorrow will bring a great or valiant experience in which God rearranges who I am. i witnessed one of the hardest steps it is to take as a lead worshipper in a strictly scheduled service. two extra unrehearsed songs while asking the pastor for a few more minutes in response to a great move of the Holy Spirit.
if we decide to gather, which every sunday is a decision to gather, but in general, if we decide to gather to seek God, my prayer is that we won't leave until God shows up. i never want to walk out of a service wondering if God showed up. i want to be knocked on my back because the thickness of God's Spirit makes me weak in my humility.
from this point on, i desire to worship in a way that i have never worshiped before. always.

Kurt, dude, you're deep
So, has anyone been made aware of your blog, or is it just for your own sake and if anyone shows up, that's cool too? I admire what you're doing here and I encourage you to write more when you have the time; it seems spiritually cathartic.
