today i drove the moving truck back to north carolina from indianapolis. it was a pretty long a grueling task, but nonetheless, i made it back safely, with all my things in tact thankfully. along the way, i listened to my ipod mostly - some arcade fire, band of horses, the ting tings - and i also threw in a talk by Heidi Baker. the talk was entitled 'blinded'. she started her talk off at the beginning of her ministry, and how she healed several blind women (amazingly enough w/ her same nickname of 'mama ida'). and then she went into how through her ministry people are hungry - physically yes, but also spiritually. people everywhere have this desire, whether they want to admit it or not, a desire to know more about "the unknown" - about God, and His creation, how we got here...all those questions that science tries, but fails to answer. people are hungry to know that something, someone out there cares for them. people are hungry to know that there's more to life than sex, drugs and rock'n'roll. people are hungry to know that there's more to life than squeaking by each week, not such if they'll be able to make their next payment. people are hungry to kow that there's to live for than collecting stuff.
what are you hungry for?
