We went to see the Hunger Games. It was very good. Good acting, directing, good story, even though it's not the most original (The Running Man anyone?). It was the first time in a long time that we've been able to go out to a movie. It was nice. Recliners in the theater. Gotta love it.
Uh...Ian's Blog....original, huh?

Oh, why, DLST?
Oh why did Ben Franklin promote this. Tired. Not really, but my wife is! Gotta love the spring forward!

Music - Revisited
I've listened to the song many times, but isn't it interesting that even though I can sing the words, I've never really listened to the song or paid attention to the words and their meaning.
Jars of Clay is a great band, and their song "Two Hands" hit me for the first time today. Here's some of the lyrics I pulled off the web:
I use one hand to pull closer
The other to push you away
If I had two hands doing the same thing
Lifted high, lifted high
I have a broken disposition
I’m a liar who thirsts for the truth
And while I ache for faith to hold me
I need to feel the scars and see the proof
And if we just keep digging we can reach the foundation
Of our souls
And if we just keep cutting all the chains from our hearts
We’ll lose control
This song reminds me of the call to integrity and authenticity - two things that are almost unheard of in post-modern America. And the great part is, that God's got it under control. If we can only give up that old, broken-down self, He has something new in mind for us - a new self that is based on the perfection of His Son. Pretty cool!
