An ode to Hairspray, Gel, Wax and other things that hold your hair in place...

I am going to see hairspray tonight.
I am psyched. I don't know why. I hate musicals...especially NEW musicals (did you SEE Dream Girls, it was rank).
Actually, come to think of it, High School Musical was the shiznit. Hmm...I think I am going to stop writing about musicals. I am excited, that is all I wanted to say.

Last night I went to some small prophetic conference. I have been going to conferences for most of my life, and I can say that the one I went to yesterday was NOT one of my favourites. I really enjoyed the presence of God, that was nice...the peace in the room. When I was younger I used to HATE the message. I was so bored. I would get a group of friends to follow me outside so we could talk for the entire time. I loved worship though. I find as I am getting older, it is the other way around (unless the quality of the worship is outstanding). I CRAVE the message. I was disappointed with last nights teaching because it was more like an hour and a half long testimony. There was not too much in it that I could take home with me, and apply to my 'walk'. I get confused when people teach on humility by sharing all the outstanding things they have done in their lives with God. It 'feels' contradictory. I am just growing and changing, and transforming...and developing...and any other word that suggests I am allowed to express that I am feeling a certain way without ridicule. I just love my Jesus more and more, and I want to hear more and more about Him. What are other people learning about Him? How did they get there? What is His word speaking to them? I want to know these things. I don't want to hear about how you led a bunch of people to Him...that is fantastic...but it doesn't help ME!

Haha...I am so selfish. I just realized how that paragraph up there is supporting two or three different ideas. I think a lot of my writing has that problem. Ah well. I am not a journalist, I am just me...writing my personal thoughts as they come to me. Okay, I think I am done now. I need to shower.

Thanks for reading, and if you have not seen Hairspray yet, I suggest you get off your butt and DO IT!
