Today i hit the streets at about Nine am. My heart felt pretty heavy for the first part of the day. I felt like God was saying to rest, that was kinda hard for me. I felt like since people found out what I'm doing and they talked about being so inspired by what I'm doing that I had some expectation of doing something amazing or making some big evangelistic action that would change the face of Atlanta. So when God said to rest I feel like he was getting that spirit of performance off of me.
Around ten thirty i went and grabbed lunch BY MYSELF!?!?! (i've been telling people that i never eat by myself) so i broke my "policy" of always taking someone out to lunch. So i rested, kinda slept on and off, played guitar, and then i found myself worshiping. So i worshiped for a bit and noticed someone eating her lunch in the park near where i was sitting and I congratulated myself for being such an awesome witness :) (just kidding!!!) Jesus said something about not being a hypocrite and doing things in public to be noticed by other peeps. Just after my worship experience I noticed someone else with a guitar and promptly scurried over to say hey. He was singing a worship song and I joined in with my voice and guitar. Then i led a couple songs while he went around praying for people (SUPER AWESOME!!) God strait up set that up. Then i played guitar while people walked by and two people at separate times stopped and asked me to play an original and one offered to record one on his camera. (at some future time)
Then i went to a magical place called little five points :) I sat on a bench for a while and got stared at by a police man and saw a middle schooler walk up to a super shady dude and talk about school stuff. Then the police man told the kid to go home (or something like that)
Later I walked to a creepy coffee shop and made some friends. We talked for around 3 hours and had some really good convo. One person there was super spiritual and really cool. She didn't believe in God (i don't think) but she was nice. I told her that if she got a word for me i wanted to here it. she looked a little confused so i asked her if she heard things for people. she didn't really know but she could kinda relate to what i was saying but not completely, so i asked her if she was friends with the holy spirit. I told her to introduce herself and that He was super cool. :) Later that night Erin, whom I've been staying with, took me to the best restaurant in ATL, The Vortex. It was soooooo good.
The end . . . . or is it?
FYI my average day looks like this.
Leave Erin's house at about 8:00am
Hit the streets by 9:00am
chill and do whatever until whenever (around 10pm)
this part of my day usually has lots of convo with the homeless and not homeless, lots of lying down trying not to fall asleep, as it isn't legal. and lots of experimenting with alternate tunings on guitar and a freakin boat load of divine appointments (DA)
take the train back to Erin's part of town (any time from 8-11)
get picked up and go somewhere out or just back home
go to sleeeeeeeeeeep!!! speaking of which,
goodnight
