I did not intend on this. I promise.

I can assure you all that this whole not writing for like 5 days was not intended. It has just kind of fallen like that. Please do not be angry, I will make it up to you. Maybe...
Since I have been home from my travels to Louisville my days have been packed with goodness. Some of this goodness I just will not be able to put into words, I apologize now for that.
Crazy Love by Francis Chan. Read it, take notes, re-read some of the chapters, tell anyone who you care about about this book. I really am not a huge reader, but as of late the Lord has just really put the enjoyment of reading into my life. HE does crazy stuff. But I love it. Check this verse out... Psalm 115:3 "But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases." Yes, now how amazing is that?
I am sure you can already tell solely from the past few sentences what has been going on in my life. If you could not tell... The Lord is moving in my life so fast and repairing what was broken! Im just letting lose of my worries and doing life. If you know what I mean.
Back to school in well, about 2 days. I have not been this excited to go back to school in a long time. Or ever. I am yearning to go back for a couple reasons.
1.) I want to allow the Lord to do whatever He wants to do in my life at Samford and else where. I know He has big things planned. Carrie Underwood could not have said it better, "Jesus take the wheel."- I did it, I'm sorry.
2.) I am a newly declared (but not technically) Journalism and Mass Communications major. It ought to be very interesting going through the many different facets of JMC to see where I fit or more importantly where the Lord guides me.
3.) Step Sing. DAP. nuff said.
Last but certainly not least.
4.) Some of you may know a recent change in my life. Yes the Lord redirecting my life is a huge change. BUT there is something else. I am not a lone ranger any more. I am not flying solo any longer. I now have a co-pilot. My Facebook relationship status no longer reads single. It now says In a Relationship with Kelsey Boone. People this is real. No one hacked our Facebooks. Not trying to flaunt, just inform you friends of mine.

I'll leave you all with a verse.
Psalm 18:3 I call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies.

Keep faith, hope, and LOVE.

Matt

An unintentional hiatus of sorts.

Time has come and gone, and I have seen a lot since I last wrote. I will tell you right now that you will not read everything that has happened but I will touch on some awesome stuff. If you do want to know everything, ask me and I will tell you. Simple as that.
Passion 2010.
I had no real expectations going into this conference. I knew that Hillsong United was going to be in attendance and that Kelsey was coming to stay and go. I am glad I had no expectations because they most likely would have been blown apart. Just like my heart! I will not go into every single detail, just those that need to be given. The Lord taught me and has shown me grace, grace that only he can give. Grace that frees us. I now live in His grace and have not been happier.
I know this post may seem quiet different from the past posts but that is because I am different. Let me just give you this verse...- Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a NEW CREATION; the old has gone, the new has come!
--2 Corinthians 5:17. That right there my friends is the truth. Awesome stuff.
So after an unbelievable journey through God's word at Passion I ventured to Louisville, Kentucky to chill with an all time VIP Kelsey Boone. I stayed at the Boone Manor in a very "homey" house with lots of love. From Mr. Boone all the way to Charlie and everyone in between, they were incredible hosts. You are probably wondering what all we did in Lou... Well, it snowed. I would guess about 5 or 6 inches!! I had never seen so much snow in my life. Especially snow that did not melt after a day! For the couple of days that I was there we went to many old shops, like thrift stores and so on. We also dined at many fine Louisville restaurants that were very different from what we have in Lilburn, GA. But I loved every bit of it. Even the poached eggs at Toast. I never knew there were so many ways to eat an egg...
I am not going to try to ramble so as more thoughts come to mind I will be sure to inform you of the happenings of what went down in Louisville or what is going down right now in Lilburn.
You all are great. Don't forget it.

Matt
