It has been a fun run xanga, but now it is over. I think.

I finished reading Harry Potter over a week ago now and I was a little sad at the lack of answers. Okay, maybe not the lack of answers but the absence of the ones that I wanted, alright I just wanted certain things to be different. i really liked the book. epic type stories have a way of capturing my heart. I will try not to give too much away but I was thinking about the end of Harry Potter mixed with the reading that I have been doing from Erwin mcManus' book Soul Cravings and I realized something about myself. I have a deep, deep desire to be apart of something big and epic. Something in which there is a deep struggle and something where I can finally reach the end and have the applause after the battle, the cheers of victory the relief of the end. It would appear that inside each of us there is this same desire to belong. We search for it in sports teams, groups, political parties, countries, relationships, even in the brands of clothing that we wear. The need to belong, the need to struggle, the need for victory, all of these are met in Jesus. I guess it sounds simple and I guess the truth of it is that it is. Jesus is our victory, our celebration, our desire, our struggle (in that we seek to love and serve him). All in all, I guess the reason the longings that I have are still extant is because I am on this side of heaven, or this side of resurrection. Already there, but not quite yet. My heart and spirit have made it there but my flesh is still waiting to catch up. And someday, it will.
