Statue of Clay?

So why didn't I just put my name? Well, to answer that question I'll first tell you why I chose this name. I chose it because it's what I am. See, my goal is to be a statue that stands fixed pointing to heaven, and for now i'm just made of clay. When the rain comes I often melt and lose my form. But the more I stare at the sky, the more the Son will bake me, and the stronger I will become. One day I hope to be a statue of stone, that can stand the weather, unmovable, staring to the sky without blinking. Why didn't I just use my name? Because every time I write I don't want it to be "me" writing. I want to remember to keep my gaze fixed upon Him and so I chose a name that will remind me to do just that.

Looking over the edge

I'm sitting here in my brothers apartment in Hammond Louisiana as I write this. This is where I will start my adventure. Tomorrow morning at 6:00 I will officially start my hitchhiking adventure. It feels almost surreal. Part of me is really excited, but another part keeps thinking "what in the world do you think you're doing?" Well I guess I'll find out that answer tomorrow. Please be in prayer for me, pray that I will keep my focus on Christ and never loose trust in Him whatever may come. Well I should probably get some sleep, early morning and a big day tomorrow!
