Dreams. Big Dreams.

Dream no small dream, for they have no power to move the hearts of men.

-Goethe

A dream. A big dream. Dreams of children. Vast dreams. Dreams not of sleep, but of waking, of going. Of sojourning and of purpose. Big dreams. Dreams that impact humanity. That impact the universe. Big dreams, huge dreams, dreams bigger than the brain itself. Not even just that big, but bigger than the mind of the earth. Bigger than the measurement of light.

They are not my dreams. They are Love’s dreams.

Dreams for what might be, what He wants, and what He wants to do in and through me to fulfill His dream – reconciliation.

And it is time for those dreams to become even more of a reality than yesterday. More of a reality than yesteryear.

I love this Dream.

Hope you enjoy this. We must have laughed at this a million times. 

And yes, I was definitely asleep.

A sleepless night

So, last night I stayed at my friend Justin’s house, didn’t really sleep at all. It wasn’t that it was hard to, but I just decided not to sleep. I got two hours of sleep last night.

It was a crazy day at work, as you can tell from this post.

Thankfully, I ran into my best friends: John, Anna, Justin, and Dylan. I love them all. We ate at chili’s, talked for hours (best convo ever with Anna), and then went home.

So here I am at my church, Perrow, sitting at a table outside the sanctuary getting some wifi, because I can, and because I need true church.

 

I am sitting here with my good friend, Lisa. 

Enjoy your day, friends! Find much Jesus.

the finale: Nashville, TN

I am finally in Nashville, sitting here at 2:30 in the morning, loving the community that continues to build.

First, it was California, the place where people make music and dream dreams. It was a place full of love, joy, unity, creativity, family, solitude, and community. It was the best trip I’ve been on since the first trip to Colombia. I felt so much love for those I was around, and the atmosphere was one of simple inspiration.

Now, being here in Nashville, with a lot of the same people, it seems it is all just continuing. We are working on the same album, Andrew’s, which is the most beautiful thing I’ve heard, and not because I’m biased. It is as if everything is starting all over again. The Redwoods, the solitude, the love, the community. I am in love with these people, and the way of life. It inspires me daily, every time I am with them.

 

 

So as I sit here, I am just so happy to be apart of such a great cause, and the chillness around which I sit. It is simply amazing. Simple living, going from place to place, the vagabond feel, where my heart lies, truthfully.

I hope that each of you feel a lot of the same, or get the chance to feel the way I am feeling right now, if you don’t already. Be inspired, find true community, and love all.

 

 

Have a great sleep, to those who are heading there, sleeping already, or are heading there in a few hours like myself.

Goodnight.
