Cowboy take me away

IT'S OVER!

Didn't think I could do it, but I made it through a truly insane week. And honestly, I am still a little tired despite 11 hours of blissful sleep.


Admittedly, vbs week was more fun than I once thought. Even if I still have random kiddie worship songs stuck in my head. Not that that's a bad thing. By the end I even got into doing the motions from the sound booth. I felt ridiculous, but I'm pretty sure we all did.

Work is still looming in the back of my mind. There are just certain things this week that I'm really not fond of. I'm just hanging in there for now waiting to see what happens next. Waiting, watching, praying. The thing is, I have this weird peace about the future. I don't know what happens next. Not a clue. But I know God is in it. I know that despite all the things that are still holding me back, He is going to move me forward into where I need to be at any given point.

I wish I could say that I've had some beautiful revelation since my last update. Mostly I've just been learning that God is bigger. I've been learning that when God speaks, I need to listen the first time. It doesn't matter where I think I'm going. It matters where He's calling me.

As for now, my heart is somewhere in the great state of Colorado.

I want to touch the earth,
I want to break it in my hands.
I wanna grow something wild and unruly.

I wanna sleep on the hard ground
in the comfort of your arms
on a pillow of bluebonnets
and a blanket made of stars

It sounds so good to me

Cowboy, take me away
fly this girl as high as you can into the wild blue
set me free, oh, I pray
closer to heaven above and closer to you

I want to walk and not run
skip and not fall
I want to look on the horizon and
not see a building standing tall
I want to be the only one
for miles and miles
except for maybe you
and your simple smile

it sounds so good to me

Cowboy...take me away....
