Thoughts & Inspiration

Favorite Holiday:  Birthdays.  I think they are so great I even celebrate 1/2 birthdays.
 
Favorite Music: Toby Mac, all the way.  
 
Favorite TV Shows: LOST, Intervention, Home Shopping Network (just kidding on that one…but I do like to shop!)
 
Favorite Books: The Bible
(God), The Barbarian Way (Erwin McManus), The Dream Giver (Bruce
Wilkinson), Blue Like Jazz (Don Miller), A Prayer for Owen Meany (John
Irving), To Kill a Mockingbird (Harper Lee), The Chronicles of Narnia
(C.S. Lewis)
 
Inspirations:  sunrises & sunsets, John 14:12, Devon (my favorite person ever), seeing people discover Jesus
 
Things I Love: Jesus, my
family, sushi, chopsticks, dancing, traveling, authentic relationships,
rock climbing, naps, sunshine, chocolate, serving people…A really good day would have all the above packaged in a highly adventurous 24 hours…
 
Thing I Hate Don’t Love So Much:
raw onions, the sound of fingernails being clipped…in church, lies,
raw onions, injustice, leeches…did I mention raw onions?
 
My Biggest Challenge:  To trust God, especially when life hurts. 
 
My Childhood Dream:  At 5
years old, I wanted to grow up and work as a full-time cheerleader and
moonlight as a clown.  At 13, I just knew I would be a Pediatric
Oncologist.  I even went to college on that path (medical, not
cheerleading).   God has different plans.  Or, at least, a different
path.
 

My Dream Today:  To love
God and love people and, if it’s God’s will, to change the world.  The
rest has gotten a little fuzzy.  I’m praying that my time with AIM will
help me to love God, love people and understand life with a little more
clarity.
