Tonight for the first time ever in my life I saw people climbing over chairs and squeezing through people so that they could come to the alter tonight. Brooke (Jamie Turner) spoke to the Street Invaders about how she believed that God wanted to break the fear off of their lives and they came immediately and when some stopped in the aisles, people started climbing over chairs and squeezing there way through to get to the front.

Monday Street Invaders
Street Invaders
For the past three days Sarah and I have been in Eston with other Leaders getting ready for Street Invaders boot camp. It has been a nice weekend all though it has been a long one. God has already been moving with here at the school. Saturday night was a really good night, multiple people took the mic to speak about something that God was putting on their heart. It was really cool seeing some that had never really done that before or at least not in that setting. God has been speaking many things to me and the funny thing is that actually basically everything that he is showing me is old and being brought together. He speaking about the “revival generation” years and how the prayers that went up to him have not been forgotten. I will be updating more of the vision and as God shows me I will be typing more. I have to run so I apologize for leaving this blog so premature. Later…
The Matrix
I’m up and really not sure what to do and what do I find on the old bubetube…you probably know what is coming, the Matrix. The first original actually good Matrix. So I’m watching the “the red pill or the blue pill” and I’m realizing a huge pet peeve of mine. The first time I watched this movie everyone was like oh man you can totally see how this is really the story of Jesus. K how do I put this…NOT EVERY MOVIE IS ABOUT GOD! Seriously people, like not everything is written about God. I mean I believe that you can look at anything, comedy, horror, action no matter what you look at you could find a form of God’s teaching. I mean Satan takes what God has given and he twists it. So it may look similar to God but really it’s a lie. I’m not the guy who is going to tell you that everything that you see on a movie is awful and you shouldn’t watch movies but really trying to say that everything we watch is Godly is ridiculous. Everything is permissible but not everything is beneficial. I guess what I’m trying to say is please stop trying to pass off your movie choice with a stretched out yeah that was totally blah blah blah God. I love the Matrix and I watch it and there are things that are so awesome but I don’t think that it was written about God. I mean if there were awful things in it then I just shouldn’t be watching it. K so I’m done ranting and the movie is still on and Morphius and Neo are about to fight so I need to go. Later…
Transformers
K so I’m watching the promo for Transformers the movie and I’m so excited. Honestly the Transformers cartoon was my favorite. I unfortunately don’t remember much about it and with the beginning of Beasties (which sucked so bad) I lost touch. So excited…now I think about this don’t you wish that we could be transformers. Like I’m not trying to be deep and inspirational with this, but honestly who wouldn’t love to be something at one time and then just be able to completely change and have a new set of “powers”. K so anyways we as people are actually obsessed with being who we are not. we constantly want to change who we are. Whether we dress ourselves up, or drink ourselves to the floor or sell ourselves to every guy, girl or anyone that will pay attention, it comes down to us trying to run from who we think that we are. The truth is that we are children of God. The creator of this whole universe, the air, the sea, the mountains, the trees, and us people created us in his image. His Breathe is breathed into us and allows us to be here. I think that possibly the biggest lie that we as people believe is that we are not special, amazing beautiful people. Now I know we screw up and I know that we are not perfect but honestly when God says that he made us in his image and that he calls us his children we must know that we do not need to run from who we are. If there is anything that I would love for my son to have it’s the confidence to know that he can do whatever he wants to, and that he is beautiful, smart and strong. He never has to hide who he is or “transform” himself into something he is not because who he is, was hand picked by the creator of this universe. Hope this makes sense cause it’s late and I’m very tired. Later…
