friend chicken | twirling in the wind
https://pinwheelscribbles.wordpress.com/2009/08/12/friend-chicken
Twirling in the wind. I was craving some good fried chicken, esp. hot wings from popeyes. But we settled on KFC instead. And what was I thinking? As I was devouring my third wing, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a tiny fried feather dangling off the lumpy, rough surface. And then it all came back to me. After reading. Listening to Novella Carpenter, David Wolfe…have I learned anything? I feel like I have committed a dire crime. I’m sorry. Repeat after me: Kentucky Fried. Might as well repeat this too:.

Lifted up on wings like eagles. Monday, November 17, 2008. Hi blog it's been awhile. This semester has been really hard. getting stretched so much. struggling in school. questioning my passions, my gifts, my desires, my goals. humbling myself to a point where i felt hollow and empty. really relying on my community, my brothers and sisters, to lift me up in prayer. For some reason last night, i felt life. I am reminded of chapter camp. isaiah 49:6. I just want you to be. I want to choose freedom. From tha...

Lifted up on wings like eagles. Monday, April 27, 2009. Where do they come from? They are not from Him. they are not from my family. they are not from anyone around me. The need to be perfect, to stretch myself sooo thin. To do my best. to do the impossible. What does it mean to be perfect? The perfect student. friend. roommate. girlfriend. sister. sister-in-christ. daughter. small group leader. volunteer. volunteer coordinator. ugsi. coleader. . So many different roles. so many hats. Are there that many?

Lifted up on wings like eagles. Sunday, January 11, 2009. Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever. The cravings of sinful man. With glam and over-the-top glitz. The lust of his eyes.
