I am not my own, for I have been made NEW

So, despite my last trip to a starbucks, I decided to try this whole "make new friends" venture again. This time I went to a starbucks that was alittle bit closer and it's a nice and quiet one. It's pretty funny to watch people come in with their costumes... this way I dont feel TOO terribly out of place. Anyways, the barista i met had a tattoo on her wrist with a verse tattooed on it so that was the best way for me to strike up a conversation with her. So she came over a few minutes later and we started talking about why I was here and all that jazz. She invited me to her church so I think im going to check it out tomorrow morning. PS.. there are MAD cuties at this starbucks... totally worth the drive :)

I'm getting bored with life.. and thats not a good thing. My days consist of going to bed at 4 in the morning and sleeping the 3... working on graphics and stuff till 4, and going back to bed to wake up at 3. You start to question what the heck God has in store for you, because I know this is NOT the meaning of life. But at the end of the day, God will provide. I know this.. I just need to find comfort in that.

The church that i'll be attending is called Watermark... they say on their site that their an acts 2 based church which is awesome... very community based.. and thats what I long for. And when I say long for, i mean loooooooong for... Community is my favorite thing... I just need to get plugged into it.. so we'll see what happens. Honestly i'm nervous, but extremely excited to be around a body of believers... that will be really awesome for me... and more so my heart.

I just wish someone would come talk to me. Just pull up a chair and let the games begin. I feel like I could talk for hours.. but more so listen. I guess thats a big thing i've gained while being in solitary confinement (lol). I have a longing for communication in any way... even if it is just listening to someone spill their passion all over the coffee table... oh the beauty in walls coming down. Its great when you get to see someones heart for the first time.

I think I'm going to pursue a job at a local store too... just for the simple act of meeting people. BAH... and this is why my blog is titled what it is. Com-union-inity... its a play of Communion, Union, Community, and Unity. All things that keep my heart beating.

Anyways.. if this day continues to stay slow like this... i might blog again... 2 times in one day.. WHAT?! THATS UNHEARD OF!

Be blessed,
Jordan

  1. I'm so glad you met someone that reached out to you! I hope that Watermark is great tomorrow and that you connect with people that have the same desire for community that you do!

    Why not work at Starbucks? You pretty much live there anyway. :)
