Disorientation

Last Wednesday (Nov. 5) my Dad and I traveled to Lubbock bringing me to my new place of residence (Somerset apartments). Making the trip with me was some clothes, a few belongings, and the "cream machine (my 1991 F150)". With the help of God's providence my old beat up truck made the trip averaging 63-mph for the three hour trip. I left as a man seeking adventure and more importantly to be with the woman i love.  I am very intrigued with the new journey i have set out on and am excited for the opportunity to move away from the old (good and bad) and am read to attempt to be transformed into something new. For some reason i have had a disorienting attempt to become part of my new surrounding.  I know that this will change soon once i begin to meet new people, but for the last couple of days i have taken advantage of my absence of community (which is frustrating for me) to learn about myself and to attempt reconnecting with God on an intimate level.  One of my best friends describes my recent attempts trying to reclaim the relationship between the heart, mind, body, and sou giving each part importance in our search for God.  For the last couple of years my mind has dominated the relationship (as is common for most North Americans trying to follow Christ).  Over the next 6 months i am going to try and live out a healthy relationship between the four and attempt to discover a healthy balance.  I am not sure what shape or model this will turn into, but i am exctied and nervous to let the spirit guide this journey.
