Song Of The Week - October 23

Hey guys, I hope that everything is going well for you. Before I continue with the post, I must stress, if you guys are still looking at this blog from time to time, post! Make a blog about what's going on at Connect, what's going on in your lives and in your ministry. Remember, it's not just a place where Odum posts, it's for everyone, and every piece of truth, advice or perspective counts. That said, it's been a bit since I updated, but I've had some free time this afternoon, so continuing on...


Show Me - Ohio Avenue, The Sound

"Are my hopes/Are my dreams/More than photographs in magazines?"

Ohio Avenue is a recent acquisition of mine, and while I haven't had the chance to listen their album in its entirety, I'm very glad that I was able to find them. Since the decease of CDL (:O/qq), it's been hard to find music that I can really get into. Kevin here has helped a bit with that, but there's no substitute for music that fills me spiritually. Fortunately I have an alternate site for a time, so we're all good for the moment :).

What struck me the most about this song is how it relates to everyone, especially people that are around our age. It's at this point that we have to make important decisions that will shape the rest of our lives, and then make them again, and again... there won't be a lot of things we do that won't matter anymore. But are we always sure that what we're doing, and what we want to do, the right thing? It's exciting to do things for ourselves, but extremely unnerving at the same time. What if we're running towards something that we shouldn't? What if we're chasing after things that are unattainable? Ever since I came here, I've felt that. I'm afraid that I won't measure up. But I have to trust that in time that God will show me His plans, and I have to believe that he wouldn't have brought me here if not to show me something, or to show someone something through me, so I will hold on to that. In time, he will show me, and I hope to be ready for it.
