so here’s the run-down of 2009 in the life of kelly pease (for the millions upon millions who are deeply concerned): i rang it in dressed as my perception of a future girl from the eighties. got up the next morning, put on my new boots and went to mass with my soon-to-be husband (i am getting married THIS year!!). i showed my little brother around the booming metropolis of steubenville and played my first 09′ show at st. paul’s in greensburgh, PA. i made stir-fry. i found the most perfect wedding invitations in all the world on a website i wish i could move into. we re-opened the new and improved dirty vagabond center. i missed those kids. i’ve been gone for a month! i finished a book that moved me to tears (”the secret life of bees” by sue monk kidd). i became inspired to write. i re-initiated myself into the world of work, teaching elementary school kids music. they call me ms. pease. it is so funny. i played the school mass and got on a plane to boston, MA where my suitcase is at the present moment. last night i played in attleboro, MA at a night of adoration and prayer. beautiful. tonight i chill. tomorrow i play again. monday i’m home.
2009 has been fine so far and my resolution, as it is every year, is to have the best year ever. there is no telling what is going to happen this year. i get excited when i look back on the last couple years of my life and realize that God was working things out all along that were so far beyond me. i am impressed again with the simple truth that knowing Him is the only thing. where else have i ever been able to make sense of who i am? where else have i ever been able to sort through the chaos around me? He has the power to transform and renew. with Him, nothing is ever lost…no dream is gone forever, no sin is hanging over my head. everything has a meaning and a place. while we are suspended in space, He is holding all of it together. He is all there is. In Him we live and move and find our being. what seems unreasonable and illogical is the only reason there is: that Jesus Christ came so that we might have life! everything else is secondary under the banner of knowing Him. that is 2009 for me. nothing else really matters. love and peace from the snowy hills of Boston!! ~kp
I am a ballet dancer and was thinking about choreographing & dancing to your song I’ve heard on the Jason Evert Pure Life show on EWTN (”there is life here in my suffering”is that the title?)for my spring show solo dance-where can I buy it? I don’t see it on i-tunes! THANKS!!! Alexandra Hamar
