Twelve Charcters (or rather 10 characters and two dolls) in Search of Authors / Unashamed

So, ya. Yesterday I went to a play at Carleton, "Six Characters in Search of an Author". I had seen the same play done by MHS last week. They were pretty different. MHS's was more comical while CU's was very very intense with very good blocking and audio/visual elements that really added to the depth of the symbolism and stuff. For example in the play all the "actors" were wearing colourful shirts while all the "characters" were black and white, showing a disticnt difference between them. Also, the use of lighting made it very clear when something was a 're-enactment' or when something was 'real'. I understand that you aren't really following what I am saying right now. xP But! If you want to find out you can still go to tonight's performace (Closing Night!) at Carleton's Kailash Mital Theatre at 8pm tickets are 8$ for students and 12$ for general admission. I strongly recomend it, but doubt that anyone will either read this in time or be able to go. xP

The thing with MHS's play is that I knew everyone in it (mostly) and I thought a couple people were really really good in their roles. Especially NJ, MHC, MU and CK. TM overacts sometimes which is often very funny, but sometimes out of place.

I can't choose which is better because they are both special in their own ways and actually have a different tone to the play and don't end the same way, so really, its as if they were different plays.



Anyways, the reason that I was blogging originally was to tell you about what just happened.

I woke up. I looked outside to see the gross slushyness that is winter in ottawa. I gave into the flesh. I looked in the mirror and saw "unashamed" written on my cheek. LOL

That is honestly what happened. xPPPPPP It was so funny. Honestly. I AM unashamed. God has paid for all my sins. I prayed right there. I confessed. I thanked Him for everything he has done that I Can stand there unashamed even after such iniquity. Jesus died on the cross for our sins. We no longer deserve wrath when we confess our sins and are purified of all unrighteousness. We can demand justice because we have been bailed out by Jesus.

You may be thinking "Why was 'unashamed' written on his face..?" Well, yesterday I went to C4C and there's always a time of worship. We sang 'Unashamed' by Starfield and it was really cool, so I wrote it down on my hand so that I wouldn't forget to look it up later. I don't know when I had my hand on my face so that the ink transferred (probably when I was sleeping), but it's so funny.

Also, right after I prayed I looked outside and it was snowing, kinda blizzard-like in its wind and snow, but all the gross slushyness of winters in ottawa was covered up by fresh, pure, white snow. It stopped snowing like a minute afterwards.

So, here are two songs:

Unashamed:



and Jesus Paid It All:



So, ya. This never ending, unconditional love that is freely given to everyone is pretty amazing. If you don't fully know about it, you could go to a local church to find out, or if you wanted to you could message me about it and I could try to tell you more about it. xP

I'll talk to you later.
