Mute Dreams

I want the whole world to stand in silence. It would be nice to carve out a mission worth livin. Something that talks in the moments that people are not talking.

Tired of fake success. Half way hopes and unsure forgotton dreams. The kind of dreams you live for all night long and lose as soon as your pupils meet the sun. I want to remember what I fight for when I sleep.

World meaning

"If the whole universe has no meaning, we should never have found out that it has no meaning: just as, if there were no light in the universe and therefore no creatures with eyes, we should never know it was dark. Dark would be a word without meaning."

Say What?

"God is easy to please, but hard to satisfy"

Saturday Afternoon Ponderings

I don't want to do anything that is even remotely close to having the opportunity for failure. 

The only problem is safe living freezes everything... and when things are frozen they get hard.

 

Its easy to look back and wonder it's much tougher to look ahead without seeing and dream

Our interpretation of freedom is caught up in political hype and images of war... the true definition of freedom is left undiscovered... beyond human sight, hidden in the crevasse of a frail and fragile heart. 

The Amish are onto something

What is love and why is it so hard to keep?

I want to sing a song I've never heard before the only problem is because I haven't heard it, it seems I don't have the words memorized

Where did the preacher leave his sermon?

Restoration isn't a city nor is it a state it is a process that takes a lifetime to understand and an eternity to run its course. 

Body n soul

Sickness is to my body what sin is to my soul

Heavy weights?

I feel a heavy weight and pressure of and from the world that has embedded itself under the flaps of my flesh. My muscles harden with madness. And my brain freeze glittery from the frost of the frozen thought process. My mind is mangled by the monkey like behavior I have allowed to caress my chest. The back and forth movement of thumping weights and sand filled shoes has intermittently intimidated my intellect. The banner that needs to be raised high has and is being muffled by the half mast wind. Jealousy conceit and frost bitten success has stolen the oriental rug right from under the table. The marble counter tops have encountered something less benevoling than the benevolence found only in negligence pride and purpose less behavior. My direct disobedience and display of unsportsmanship like conduct has had a revolving affect on my initial purpose. The air is growing thin in my thinning lungs. The dream that chose me is choosing sleep. The fires are making amends with fire fighters. Shackles hang tightly on a childhood once was. It's s lie though (everyone knows it). I want to behave like I am madly in love and that is all. I want to live like I have never experienced life before. I want the Madness of a king to take over my stubborn outlaw heart. Who is this inventor of life and what does he have to do with the unfinished equations of blissless passages?

Where are we going and who will we become when we get there?

They ask me what is love?

Love is a condition without conditions

Love is powerless without the power of spoken words and a breathing soul

Love is not tame but wild

It is messy and full of clutter

Living philosophy

"To bring blessings upon yourself bless your neighbor.
To enrich yourself enrich your neighbor.
Honor your neighbor and the world will honor you.
To sorely hurt yourself hurt your neighbor.
He who seeks love will find it by giving it.
The measure of a mans wealth is the measure of wealth he has given.
To enrich yourself with many friends enrich your friends with yourself.
That which you take away from any man the world will take away from you.
When you take the first step to give yourself to that which you want, it will also take its first step to give itself to you.
Peace and happiness do not come to you from your horizon, they spread from you put to infinity beyond your horizon.
The whole universe is a mirror which reflects back to you that which you reflect forward into it.
Love is like into the ascent of a mountain. It comes even nearer to you as you go ever nearer to it."

Live on

"one may give without loving,
But none can love without giving.

The more a man gives of himself,
The more he has left.

If we believe we can or can't we are right.

When we walk in the light,
Which is Christ, our lives become beautiful.

Whether it be happiness, spiritual or material things, we can receive only in proportion to that which we give.

Your greatest power; the power to choose.

The person who feels self-sufficient lives in a mighty small world,
And adjusts himself to very small affairs.

'FOR WHAT SHALL IT PROFIT A MAN IF HE SHALL GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD AND LOSE HIS OWN SOUL.'

St. Mark 8:36

What is a Christian?

I don't want to be a Christian anymore I think I would rather be like Christ in a man... I feel like that was more less his intent in the first place. Not to build a brand or marketing machine but to rebuild a human race.

For some reason that triggers a thought inside of my thoughts... What would happen if we stopped racing? What if we became a human rest?

Love is a more magnificent tune than progress.

Greater is the life inside of my beating heart than the sense of life inside this fleeting race.

Mercy

Mercy works both ways... If someone gives it and it is not received it is void. It is not until one fully accepts the gift that it can take affect.

Another late night journal

It's 1am. Prettty dang late. How do I articulate the dealings of my heart if I don't know how to interpret the dealings there in?

It's a discouraging time. I feel like quitting, but I won't. I feel like giving up and throwing in the towel yet I know I am close to something and it's just what the enemy wants. My vision does feel a little bit cloudy. I have been a little bit discouraged since my conversation with tom last Friday. I know he didn't mean it but it makes me want to quit trying. Its difficult to dream when you feel like your dream is subject to someone elses reality or past realities.

My heart once was heavy for world movement and action and now i'm mostly concerned with how I am going to make a quick buck so that I can survive. My compassion is buried in a coffin along with free time and the outdoors.

I think i'm on the road to burnout because I have been trying to make this all happen in my own strength and so far nothing has been happenning. I want to be free from the cynical voices in my head. The criticisms and dark dogma.

Where is simple thoughts And Jesus melodys?

Too late

Instead of going to bed i'm blogging. Instead of writing in the magical leather journal I am blogging. I swear google is taking over everything (read previous blogs to find out how).

Today was a beautiful day. I lost a guitar student yet I feel good about it. I have to move in one week and do not have a permanent residence yet I feel good about it. I stepped down from leading worship at a paying church yet I feel good about it. I am stepping into something my heart once knew; forgot and is rediscovering. It's called dreams. It's leaping off of a mountain into it's heart. Higher than opinions, city skylines, and paper money.

Pursuing this does not make me the least bit scared because it feels like i have been here before... It's all so unclear yet pristinely set before me. Like an familiar door with a unfamilar handle. Or a familiar key that goes to a key hole in an unfamiliar place.

I'm ready for change. I'm ready for a new set of compassion stories. No bigger than stories I want to give and give and give and not ever talk about it. To help someone and tell absolutely no one about it.

A new set of love and active living. I want to activate peoples dreams by living mine. I want to give more than I take... and take less than I think I own...

I want to own less than what I think I need. All while crushing the greed that seeds the wants and disguises the needs of others.

God my prayer is for you to create in me a clean heart. Purify my motives. Make me soft where this world has tried to harden my shell. I love you more than what is inside of me. You are the definition of life. The definition of ignition everything else around me is a lie. You build and create where people say it can't be done.

Forgive me for any sins inside of my heart. Reshape your character and shape me with your integrity. Give me the strength to live this life of purity and kingdom love. Live inside of my dreams. Pull up a chair and dine with me. Stay a while. Stay forever.

All yours

We're finally doing it!

Today marks the beginning of a momumental future. Lorrin Smokey Bates one of my closest and dearest friends/mentor is embarking on capturing and releasing the wisdom and fountain of love that is in his heart to the nations. I'll post the link to his TV show, radio show, and podcasts as soon as we get em up.

I hope everyone is doing well.

Return to the Garden

When journals run dry
and pages are lost in the height of embellishments

When definition becomes the only worth you know

When all steam is frozen with a picture someone forgot to take

When moving walls and runaway frames are the only things separating love from destiny
Is it possible to return to the garden?

When freedom sight is the light that shines inspite and horse thunder calls out to your pain. Is it too late to return your shame. Forfeit your game and enter the plain that once knew your name?

Man cannot live on brownies alone

The brownie does not do the tempting. If I like brownies then I am tempted by the brownie (not the brownie tempting me)... I desire what the brownie has to offer me. If I do not desire what the brownie has to offer me then when the brownie is in my presence I am not tempted because my hearts desire has nothing to do with a brownie.

Google-bots

Back in Arizona for a total of 48 hours. I'm waiting in line at Starbucks with my brothers typing on my blackberry and just had the epiphany that google is about to monopolize and turn us all into robots. That's all really.
