As part of their What's Next 2008 series, TIME Magazine ranked the concept of Re-Judaizing Jesus as one of the 'Top 10 Ideas at Are Changing The World.' Worth a read in all circumstances.

The way of the future...

Yesterday evening marked the first day of the Jewish Passover. What an monumental (and intimate) event it was to commemorate with the Lord; He blessed me amazingly. To have heard an account of how He is permeating the lives of others close to me, and then to have been able to spend time with Him last night was really otherworldly. I see Him actively making provision for me in ways too abundant to enumerate. It is good to be completely sold-out for G-d; this is what I yearn for.

I watched "The Aviator" in its entirety for the first time last night. I found extreme parallels between the person of Howard Hughes and myself, and can't help but wonder if certain shades of my being await a similar fate.

Hughes allegedly watched this film over 150 times, and I find myself intrigued by the allure it held over him:

Ever been completely knocked off your feet by the candidness and spontaneity of your day? This is becoming more of rule for me than an exception. My brother and friend G-Town (you can see him in his own blog here) and I are both fans of well-done graffiti, so dismissing the fact that we both are vocal followers of Christ (and the thousands of other ways we are uncannily alike), we will always have a common ground. With it being a weekend, we had one of those oft-hoped-for days to roam Dublin together (G-Town is the Turk (or better yet, Dr. Cox) to my J.D.), but things never go as planned. Like I said, we can't have normal days. It's the Twilight Zone here on out.

This was one of those days when ducking onto trams at the last minute and evading security cameras seems to be the norm, even if only to be precautious. Hahah, yes. The image of the two of us running dow-... Ah, well. Back in the car (and safely on the way home) after our long day out, I made the comment that I had crawled through (and under) enough fences and been honked at by trains enough that day to last me for awhile. Much more needn't be said than that, hahahaha.

In the J & G blog, we commented on a prevalent graffiti artist by the name of DBC (word on the street has it that DBC is a Polish girl), and it was ultimately her who caused our day to turn into a rabbit trail. In fact, it was a string of her pieces which ultimately extended our hunt for several hours longer than expected (and ultimately concluded at Rathfarnam Castle).

You've gotta love this, on so many levels. Hahaha.

Major professional crush going on here. We're kidnapping her; it's already been decided. Hahahaha. As soon as we find out who old girl is, she's going straight in the boot. Hahahaha. In any case, much love for the brilliant work.
