God, the watcher of Sparrows
Its been a long time, hasn't it? I wonder when my last post was...dang. So what has been happening in my life, what gorgeous discoveries insights has God given me? In finding the words to describe it, I honestly believe the compilation of nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs would be these: God watches over us. Yes this does sum up what I have experienced and learned over these past weeks. In each series of events I have seen a reacurring theme: They all work out for the better. Not yet has my life dwindled to nothing; something has always come out of my experiences. But I have not always thought this way. I can still remember my attitude that began a little over a year ago; one that last nearly half a year. It was a moment in my life where nothing would become of me, life was falling apart. Yet even then, God was watching the sparrows; he was watching me.
I want you to think about that. In the words of scripture, God watches the sparrows and one shall not fall without his knowing of it. We are counted much more than a simple bird; a creature of God. Now imagine us, the creature who's lungs are filled with God's own breath. What immense watching does he do? Look at Job, Remember Abraham; never forget how he led the Israelites through the desert.
Another note, I'm in love with someone. I could say 'like' but that would be an understatement. I COULD go further into it, but why should I let some unworthy person know of how great she is and how much I long to care for her in every way God shows me how. Ah, three weeks (about) and I'll be home. May the Lord do with it as he will.
To keep things going, I am currently reading "Michael Moore is a Big Fat Stupid White Man" and am quite enjoying it. First, I enjoy their playful use of his book title "Stupid White Men." The content of the book is what really drives it. Documented left and right are his many fraudulous claims, smeering of public figures by way of splicing speeches and crafty filming techniques. One instance is displaying the NRA as heartless towards the shooting of a little girl at her school. Moore shows how they plan to continue their "gun rally" despite the fact this town was hit hard by the incident. Hell, Charleton Heston even goes as far to say nothing would stop them.
What Moore does not say is that it was an event planned eight months in advance, a meeting required by NY State Law (The NRA is based out of NY), and was cut down to a simple meeting for policy matters. The speech made by Heston? Cut from multiple speeches. Michael, why not be honest? That answer is easy, he has an agenda and will stop at nothing to push it on a public too easily fed. Dude, where's your integrity?
Did I say I am in love? Yeah...this is this first time I can say I've felt an honest love for someone (a girl that it.) And its the first time I've sought to LOVE, not simply swim around the emotions.
Well, that was my big post. Andy, I have really enjoyed your new poems. I hope we can hang out a bit when I come home.
Under his watchful eye,
Adam
