Special Sauce

0
If there's one thing i strive for its to be the only me
i constantly am trying to become different from the rest
on a constant search for my "Special Sauce"
the ingredient that makes me ME!
the thing that separates me from the rest????

for me its my crazy personality and brain that works like none other
i can walk into a room and see things that nobody else is thinking
in creative meetings i nvr think the same thing as the person nxt to me
some ppl think in a box
i create a new box and paint it a different color thats nvr been created

i strive to be different

theres another guy i know who did the same
his lifes goal was to be the difference
he lived his life like nobody has and will ever do
he never did anything wrong
he was the only him
he had his own special sauce
its called "Grace"
his name Jesus

i think u should get to know him better
cause his creativity will get all ova u

u created a painting
he created the milky way galaxy
i think he's a lil more creative ;)

creating with the creator

2010 manifesto

so this is my first post of a new decade.
iam feeling that this yr especially the beginning of this yr is all about
"a primal pursuit of authenticity and radical grace"

i think that so many times i can get caught up in just doing my thing
that i forget bout the special sauce that i was made to create

the second thing that's been wrecking me lately is this

"Faith is spelled R-I-S-K"-Mark Batterson

"Live life out on a limb b/c thats where the fruit is"-Stephen Gault

i think its time to take a risk
i dont know what that risk is yet
but i know this
that its time to take a risk

i gues u could call this post my 2010 manifesto
searching for authenticity

Christmas colored light

0


Have u ever wondered why we put lights on our Christmas trees?

have u ever wondered what purpose those small multi colored lights served?


these were the questions i contemplated while putting up the tree

i came up w/ no real answer other than it looks cool
but i found a greater analogy hidden w/in the depths of the fake tree and multicolored lamps


iam a light on a tree!
u are a light on a tree!
were all lights on a tree!

were all different colors of creatively designed lamps that illuminate and give new perspective to the life we live!
we are simply the lights on the tree of life were all different and all together its looks amazing

so this Christmas season light up the tree of life


electrifying life
Ben,

Gues what???
ITS CHRISTMAS TIME!!
A time where we GIVE, and celebrate the most amazing gift ever given!

its also the time most ppl in America are full of Greed, pride, and envy!

don't let the hustle and bustle of the hollidays get u all up in a tisy!

let out ur inner kid

were all Big Kids!!
grab ur stocking
and crayons
and write a letter to santa
make a snow man
make sure to put some cookes out for santa
bake a cake for Jesus
sing lots of songs
drink lots of hot chocolate
make sure u show the Joy of Christmas!!

its not about how much crap u can get
its about showing CHRIST!
the whole point is celebrating the best gift ever given
lets follow suit by giving!
from the salvation army bell wringers
to maybe even supporting a child through compassion international

make this holiday season a time of Giving, loving, laughing, singing, and JOY!!

let out ur inner child and just have fun!

Man in the Mirror

i can't get this song out of my head so powerful so true


Man in the Mirror
I'm Gonna Make A Change For Once In My Life
It's Gonna Feel Real Good
Gonna Make A Difference
Gonna Make It Right...

As I, Turn Up The Collar On My Favorite Winter Coat
This Wind Is Blowin'
My Mind

I See The Kids In The Street With Not Enough To Eat
Who Am I, To Be Blind?
Pretending Not To See Their Needs
A Summer's Disregard
A Broken Bottle Top
And A One Man's Soul
They Follow Each Other On

The Wind Ya' Know 'Cause They Got Nowhere To Go
That's Why I Want You To Know

I'm Starting With The Man In The Mirror

I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways
And No Message Could Have Been Any Clearer

If You Wanna Make The World A Better Place
Take A Look At Yourself,
And Then Make A Change


I've Been A Victim Of A Selfish Kind Of Love
It's Time That I Realize That
There Are Some With No Home
Not A Nickel
To Loan
Could It Be Really Me Pretending That They're Not Alone?
A Willow Deeply Scarred Somebody's Broken Heart
And A Washed-Out Dream

They Follow The Pattern Of
The Wind,
Ya' See
Cause They Got No Place To Be
That's Why I'm Starting With Me
I'm Starting With The Man In The Mirror

I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways
And No Message Could Have Been Any Clearer
If You Wanna Make The World A Better Place
Take A Look At Yourself

And Then Make A Change

making THAT CHANGE
