If we are the body

So today was a great day.
Woke up really late, which if you know me, is always a great thing, and a very common thing.
Then I got ready and attended Poly Sci. I'm usually not too happy to attend this class, but today we were only watching a movie. And not just any movie. Thank You For Smoking. A very good movie about an amazing lobbyist for a tabacco company. Great movie. I own it actually and have never watched it. I will be watching it again when I get home next.
Then the rest of the day was a blur only because Stevie and I couldn't wait for the Casting Crowns concert.
OMG.
Amazing.
It was a great night of praise and worship through the wonderful voices of the members of Casting Crowns. I can truly say that I was moved tonight in a way that I haven't been moved through the Lord before. I've heard all of their songs, but live and in person was more amazing than I can express in words. I can relate to so many of their songs that when Mark was singing on stage I felt tears swell up in my eyes, knowing the pain that so many people have felt.
A truly remarkable experience.
If you've never been to a Christian concert let me let you in on a little thing they all do. They all support WorldVision. WorldVision is a great organization that provides orphans with money and water and an education. When my family and I attended the Mark Schultz and Big Daddy Weave concert last year we adopted a little girl named Tiara. This time around when I told my mom that they had the WorldVision people there again she made it loud and clear that I was NOT TO ADOPT ANOTHER LITTLE KID. It is so hard not to take all their little pictures home and send them all money. If you feel that you should help some of these kids in Africa or India or other 3rd world countries please go to WorldVision.com and sponsor a child. You really can make a difference in their life.

Anyway, so it was a wonderful night! Now I'm in the student center with Stevie, Marie, and Jared just chilling at the computers. It's a place we can all get together and all be on a computer. Since FaceBook is what keeps us together anyway...even when we're sitting right next to each other.
