God put a smile on your face. Coldplay played at the Arrowhead Pond and I went with my friends Roberto, Lyndsey and four of her friends from Biola. For me their music is awe inspiring, mysterious, and has comforted me when I needed it. While they may not officially be a Christian group, they sing songs with positive messages, praise God's creations, explore the mysteries that is life and ask questions that make us all human. During the concert I found myself wanting to explore the mysteries of God even more. This may sound weird, but I am scared of their music. Scared of what I might find. It took me a while to finally listen to all of "Rush of Blood to the Head", only selecting a few songs here and there a few years back. I didn't even listen to X&Y when it came out until Roberto assured me that it was a worthy successor. Yet I find myself and others doing the same thing with life. We are scared of what we might find out there, good or bad, and would rather stay where we are and not venture forward. I have taken leaps of faith, often expecting to fail, but God has always been there by me and I look back and His hand has constantly be on me. Yet I find myself in a state of disbelief again, but this may be the best place to be because I know I will look back at this moment and see God's hand in motion. Ah, the mysteries of God.
