captivated.

wow. this is goin to be deep...

i've been captivated lately. captivated by Jesus and His beauty. and to be completely honest, i haven't been in that place for a long time. worship in my everyday life. worship at work, just thinking about God and His beautiful Son. worship at home. worship in my car. more than music, more than just words. a lifestyle-i long for.

i actually was driving to a friend's house tonight and i looked to the sky, and my immediate thought was, "wow, my God is beautiful." i like to think of myself as an artist. and to see some artwork, it, in different ways, moves me. and tonight, just by a simple look to the skies, i was moved. to where no other can move me. only God.

i've been listening to a lot of great music, just completely, giving God the glory. and this great old song rings in my heart over and over...

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
there's just something about that Name.
Master, Savior, Jesus
Like the fragance after the rain.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Let all heaven and earth proclaim.
Kings and kingdoms will all pass away
But there's something about that name.

i can't remember the last time i just stopped and thought about the name of Jesus. but lately i've been taking the time and doing that. only in that name can a person find everything they will ever need. so i constantly ask myself, why not give everything i have to Him? why hold back? when all i ever need is in His hands, willing to freely give it me. In His name...salvation, healing, authority, power, glory, love, protection. No other name compares. AHHH, my God. so many thoughts.

I'm leading worship next Sunday at my home church, in Stevens Point, WI. in a way i'm kind of excited, but it will be interesting-to say the least. but all this, above, is goin to be said, in a shorter form. I just really feel God leading me to say a few things. I'm so consumed right now. it's so refreshing, i can't fully explain. so i won't try. but again, maybe it's just for me, this time. i dont' care.

just stop and think...Jesus.

that's all folks.

explain.

so i thought i would explain what you are about to see...(in the pics below) so on Weds. (27th) Christy D. needed models for an advanced class she and her co-workers had to take at CityLooks. so 9 of us went to be the models. Amanda, Chelcy, Missy, Sarah, Madison, Kelly, Lindsay, Mandy, and me, got our hair done, all up and crazy. it was fun. so we all decided to keep our hair in that same style for youth group. so all the pics are of different random shots of the girls and some girly guys in the youth. hehe j/k. people said, and i quote, "katie's hair is the best!" i didn't disagree. although, lindsay's and madison's hair was cool... kind of crazy, but cool. anyways, so there, i explained. now go and enjoi the pics.

things are better now, i'm not sick anymore. it was bad there for a second.

anyways, i gotta work in the wee hours of the morning...so i gots to get to bed. i realized that last night i didn't move in my sleep at all, i dont' think. i woke up in the same way i went to sleep, now how's that for random thinking/typing. ok peace out y'all.
