Currently Listening Funeral By Arcade Fire Wake Up see related

Yesterday's Origins Experience began with a procession of 700 missional leaders being led into the Mott Auditorium on the campus of William Carrey University by four guys creating some incredible rhythms on metal garbage cans. What a wake up call. And so Origins began!

The Origins Experience has become for me an annual wake up call - a reminder to become the person God has intended, created, redeemed, and gifted me to be. Nothing more and nothing less - but oh what a call that is!

Overnight a song and a text have been rolling through my soul. The song is "Wake Up" by The Arcade Fire:

Something filled up my heart with nothing, someone told me not to cry.

But now that I'm older, my heart's colder, and I can see that it's a lie.

Children wake up, hold your mistake up, before they turn the summer into dust.

If the children don't grow up, our bodies get bigger but our hearts get torn up.

We're just a million little god's causing rain storms turning' every good thing to rust.

I guess we'll just have to adjust.

And the text is Ephesians 3:20-21

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen!

May God awaken the dreams within.
