Leaving it Behind

Whoa time flies again. Or maybe not, it's actually gone a bit slow. Today's the day and I haven't started packing yet but we're heading about half way to school tonight. It's pouring out and there's supposed to be a storm this weekend which makes for excellent driving conditions. And the grape vine might be closed, which means a hefty detour taking 101. What can ya do?

So lots of changes and big decisions to be made. Strong possibility of more overseas travel this summer. Trying to work it all out. Hoping for some divine revelation from God. I had a dream last night about a gig gone bad. Not gone bad, but gone stressful and hectic. My dreams always have to do with me being out of control or inadequate in some way. I think the dream had nothing to do with these trips, but my friend Tim was in the dream which makes me miss him. Maybe I should just go to Sydney again. (Somehow I don't think that's what God is saying.)

I'm reading a book called The Relentless Tenderness of Jesus by Brennan Manning. I guess it used to be called Lion and Lamb. Anyway, my friend gave it to me to borrow while I stayed over in LA for a couple of days. I'm about 2/3 through and it's really good. It covers sort of a broad range of topics, but I guess it's really about the Christian life in light of the character of God. I would definitely recommend it.

I guess that's all for now. Prayers for the travels would be appreciated, I have a feeling the roads are going to be pretty bad this weekend. Until later...
