Intelligent Input Darling

Another night of thoughts written down with a pen then typed up days later to share...

-Sometimes I like the voices you've given homeless people. The tone they use to say, "God Bless" when I offer a bag of cheddar sun chips.
-God's love I've come to realize is a different type of love than what I'm accustomed to
-Hopscotch should be in Ihop
-Kenny Rogers is behind us
-He's telling me to meditate on what he just said but I didn't hear what he just said...
-"Man can not stop the move of God"
-I love when people hum... it's beautiful sounding

Then something more worth your time
-The man speaking said something that really touched me. He said that once we learn to see beauty we'll be able to see it everywhere. He then mentioned soemthing about finding beauty in your husband eating breakfast. So I started thinking about my future husband eating breakfast. Will I be able to find beauty in him eating ceral? Will I be able to see God in him? What ceral is he eating? Would God eat that? My prayer now is that in the mundane times I'll be able to find the beauty of God in my husband and in my future children and find it in my present family that I've been given now.

prayercakes

We went to Ihop for the second time. We didn't stay for too long so here's a list of the randomness I wrote down.
-I often try to blink even when my eyes are already closed
-I can't get quick scrabble off my mind.
-If I do keep my eyes closed I can't see you :)
-I love the word manifest.
-Jesus commands attention
-I'm actually quite confused by handclaps. It's so small but yet sometimes it's a praise. All I have to do is put my hands together and I'm giving praise.
-If we declare prophecy in speech should I pay closer attention to the words coming out their mouth?
-Dear flute, I'm not sure how I feel about you yet.
-"We are like men who dream."
-He says 'Gawd' but it's cute Gawd
-Psalm 112 should probably be my home

This thought is built off of a thought of Alison
-Alison wrote a poem about an oak tree and I'm not sure if the tree was supppose to symbolize anything but one line she wrote read something like, 'I wonder how many people take in your beauty and never have a second thought about you.' But trees produce the air we breath so subconsciously we're thinking of those trees as we're equipped to think to inhale.This just goes back to my favorite Nooma video, Breath. He relates how God breathed into us and how the name Yahew was essiently sounds of breathing. So his question is the name of God breathing? Could you be saying anything? Say anything you want and I'll choose to hear the name of Jesus. So going back to referring to Alison's poem. We say we don't believe in this God or we question God and never give it a second thought. But truly we're subconsciously saying His name, thinking of Him.....
