Still recovering, but settling in again...

As many of you know, I was in England for two months working out a vision that God put on my heart. I believe that vision is meant to be carried on as I'm back home now. It's good to be back in Minneapolis and I feel like my heart has been in the process of being "refueled". I went through a lot of intense things out in London but in the few days that I've been home, I can say with confidence that seeds were indeed planted and I believe there may be a season in the future when I do make a return trip. For now, though, I believe God has things for me to do here in my native soil.

He's already provided me a new place to live! And it's close to everything I like being close to - church, friends, downtown things, Stone Arch Bridge/Mill City area, cool places close enough to bike to... Yay! Apart from that very timely blessing, I'm still looking for a new job... so your prayers are definitely needed for that.

The jet lag has been slowly wearing off... so, I'm nearly recovered... I should be back on schedule sometime this week. =) I've also had a lot of musical inspiration as a result of my trip and I'm ready to work out some parts with some of my musician friends and eventually record some tracks and see where God leads it... so, I'm looking foward to that!

Oh, and pray for me about a new guitar. I don't have one right now. I left my little travel guitar over in England because it would've been too much of a hassle to get it back over here (exceeded carry-on dimensions and only 1 was allowed)... I also sold my Martin acoustic before going to England for a little extra money... If anyone has a connection or an idea to how I might obtain a guitar, let me know.

I'm happy to be posting again... =)

That is the episode where they kept hearing the sound of drums?

I'm glad you are safely back in MN and that you found a place to live so quickly! Can't wait to share a cider or such with you soon. Maybe bring the Johnson boys with, and talk about Dr. Who or whatever Gillipy has been up to in his imaginery world.
