Filling in the emptiness

Tonight is just another one of those nights. Again, I feel like there is so much I could blog about but for whatever reason, it just isn't happening. I have the house to myself tonight. Earlier tonight, I watched the recent dvd from Netflix. Yeah, it was Rambo. Pretty violent and bloody. But, very much realistic. The characters who play missionaries go into very dangerous territory and they see much bloodshed and they also are tortured. They wanted to change lives and maybe they would have succeeded. I won't give the movie away so I'll quit there.
But, I sit here, listening to some Mortification. I loaded their CDs (14 studio albums) into the media player and I'm just listening to a random playlist of Mort songs. For those who might read this and have no clue who Mortification is I shall tell you. They hail from Austrailia. Metal is the style they play. They have ranged from Iron Maiden like metal to death to thrash/speed to all kinds of metal genres in between. Steve Rowe is a miracle mainly because of all that his body has been through with cancer. They are a Christian band. Steve would probably cringe at the fact I loaded all of his CDs into my media player, but I don't have a CD burner and I have no intention of sharing any tracks with anyone. Just for my own pleasure. But, Steve is evangelical. Something you don't really see enough in Christian metal. Having helped at a venue for a while, there isn't much evangelism going on there. It blends in with the world. We're supposed to be different from the world, aren't we? God has sent us His Holy Spirit to lead and guide us through this life, sharing with others the Good News. There should be no emptiness if you have placed your faith in Christ.
I feel encouraged just sitting here and just typing away. I didn't really have any thoughts in mind. Just knew I needed to get something out of me.
