A Prayer

What a great prayer ... it's time to find a dream worth giving our lives to ...

A Prayer by Erwin McManus

"Lord, I need a dream worth giving my life to.
I need a life worth waking up to each morning.
I need a mission bigger than me.
I want to believe for not only me, but also for this world.
Amen."

Don't be afraid that your life will end. Be afraid that it will never begin.

Elf



Hard to believe that Thanksgiving has come and gone already. 2009 is just flying by! But the best time of the year is upon us. And you know what that means ...

Time to watch all the classic movies! On Thanksgiving Day, Home Alone was on in HD. That is definitely one classic movie. I remember watching that so many times when I was younger on VHS.

And did you know? I even watched that movie before my Sr. Prom haha ... before I got ready and put on that tux. I was rockin' the tie and vest just like Freddie Prinze Jr. in She's All That. :)

But this post isn't about Home Alone. It's about one of the best movies for Christmas ... yes ... that is ELF. It's so silly, yet heartwarming at the same time. If you haven't seen it yet, well ... you need to watch it! And I think this was the movie that really pushed Zooey Deschanel into the spotlight. I really like her singing. Speaking of which ... I wanna see 500 Days of Summer again. Another lovely movie.

As for other great movies for this time of year ... Serendipity is another good one. I'll write about that one another time haha :P

So ... go and watch ELF!
