The trip to St. Cloud MN to see Fireflight went well.
When you consider spending 11 hours on the road with stops and such then rocking out and then driving another two hours to sleep and then waking up and driving for 8 more hours and having a tire that was only held on by a prayer …
We did really well. God saved us from the tire falling off with the lugnut sheared off, if i remember it right. And He assisted with all of us getting tired and cranky.
We had a great time and got home really tired, but now I’m finding it hard to sleep. I hope I get to it soon, cuz I got to be up at 5 at least to be at work by 6 am.
I’ll get the pictures posted tomorrow or Sunday and I’ll write more when/if my brain clears up. As I’ve told my friends this is my last major trip for a while.
Since January I’ve gone to see As I Lay Dying, Wisconsin Dells, Mens Retreat in Clear Lake, Just Give Me Jesus in Des Moines, and now the Fireflight concert which averages out to 1 event per month. I’ve had lots of fun, but it is finally time to rest up for a couple of months for camp and maybe even the Iowa Anime event in August, which I still need to check on to make sure it is still in August.
Anyway, this is my update for now. Please pray for me, if you are so inclined, as I continue to learn and explore the balance of Truth and Grace, or Law and Mercy. I would like to write up a bit of an essay/blog on this.
The other thing I’m working on is expressing my thoughts on why Political Correctness/Tolerance should die because it prohibits people from truly being themselves therefore destroying the very things that they are trying to protect which is to let all people be themselves.
As you can see these are tricky topics and sort of counter-media to how the news or politicians usually construe them. Then there’s the issue of trying to be clear so as not to be mis-understood myself, but then you can never please all the people all the time. My goal is to be as clear as possible.
But I digress in this ramble. I’m going to attempt sleep. Good night.
