Katie's prayer: Jars of Clay's "Disappear"

I'd really love to know
I'd really love to climb into your soul
Walk into your skin
Swim through your veins
See it from your eyes
I'd really love to try


I was a psych major. I chose that major because I love people. I love hearing their stories. I love finding out how their brains tick. I love hearing their thoughts. I’ve always said that if I had a super power, I’d want to be able to read people’s minds (with the clause that I’d be able to be selective - hear only one person’s thoughts in a crowd of people - and have the ability to turn it off completely so I can hear my own thoughts) I would love the chance to just switch brains with someone for a while, check out their life, their thoughts, etc. (Maybe I’m weird). But out of everyone I could choose to have this experience with, my number 1 pick would be God. Mainly so He could see how tough it is being down here not knowing anything and being completely frustrated! (: Just Kidding. Real reason - I would love to be able to look at people like God sees them. I’d love to be able to see the good in everyone. I’d love to have the ability to welcome people into to Heaven. I’d love to know everyone’s future and slowly unfolding it for them. I’d love just listening to people down on earth talking to me. It’d be so amazing. Luckily some of that stuff, I do get the ability to do, somewhat. I wonder if in Heaven, I’ll get a glimpse of more of it.
