i can hear the trumpets in the distance

I was watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, worked on some homework, and now for the last hour have been watching some religious show. Joel Osteen Ministries. He's speaking on a stage to what looks like an arena. And it's infectious. I can't stop listening. His stories are inspiring, his words are powerful. I'm not saying I'm having a relgious conversion, but what he has been saying is beautiful.

This is the year of jubilee. God is accelerating things. What I thought would take 45 years, will happen in half the time. You will come through breakthroughs in your health. God is releasing what has your name on it. This is the year for God to happen. This is your year. Are you looking for his goodness? When I release my faith and expect his favors, that's when I see God enter my life and make changes. This is the year I want to do something great with my life. This is the year of freedom, restoration, breakthrough, release. Expect unusual things. This year. Our debts are cancelled. Great celebration.

Not something I would normally read into. I know I didn't get everything he said. But, it just grabbed me.

What the hell, jubilee. The free favor of God profusely abound. Debt to abundance, sickness to health, addictions to freedom, worry to peace, struggling to ease, defeat to total victory.

Here's to a day of sadness, homework, and deep conversations. I'm going to turn this off, and try to dream sweet dreams
