beloved by derek webb beloved these are dangerous times because you are weightless like a leaf from the vine and the wind has blown you all over town because there is nothing holding you to the ground so now you would rather be a slave again than free from the law beloved listen to me don't believe all that you see and don't you ever let anyone tell you that there's anything that you need but me beloved these are perilous days when your culture is so set in it's ways that you will listen to salesmen and thieves preaching other than the truth you've received because they are telling lies for they cannot circumcise your hearts beloved there is nothing more no more blessings and no more rewards than the treasure of my body and blood given freely to all daughters and sons
*quotes* in my place, in my place, were lines that i couldn't change, i was lost, oh yeah. - coldplay come up to meet you, tell you i'm sorry, you don't know how lovely you are. i had to find you, tell you i need you, tell you i set you apart... - coldplay i wonder sometimes about the outcome of a still verdictless life...am i living it right? - john mayer would you want me when i'm not myself? wait it out while i am someone else? and i, in time, will come around. i always do, for you... - john mayer a desert's just a sea without a shore, and a lonely man at worst is still a man... - andrew peterson sleep, sleep tonight, and may your dreams be realized... - u2 but if i must go, things i trust will be better off without me, but i don't want to know, life is better off a mystery... - derek webb i dreamt i saw your face tonight, it's funny the wars we choose to fight, like knowing something is not right, or knowing when it is... - sandra mccracken my heart is where it's always been, my head is somewhere in-between... - u2 the truth is that we are all sinners. i always include myself in the 'we'. i'm not telling everybody that i have the answers. i'm trying to get across the difficulty that i have being what i am. - paul "bono" hewson |

the weight of glory...
lately i feel as if i've been wrapped in a soft warm blanket and given a mug of tea to drink while i sit and watch my days go by one at a time. each day comes slowly and goes by quickly. i get many things accomplished yet have time for introspection on a daily basis. i spend a lot of time in pensive silences... trying to grasp the little snatches of song that flit by me. my hope and excitement for heaven are growing. my best friend and husband encourages me every day and surprises me in ways i had not anticipated, increasing my love for him and for God. these are blessings i do not deserve. the high countries by sandra mccracken a bus station, in the steam from the rain in this line of pale strangers, should i go or stay? the whole field of vision, fades beneath me now and the houses spread for a million miles in this gray town and the weight of glory, if you held it in your hand it would pass right through you, so now’s your chance would you fall to pieces would you fall to pieces would you fall to pieces in the high countries? we are just pilgrims of the great divorce i am witness to the light and I am captive to my own remorse and the weight of glory, if you held it in your hand It would pass right through you, so now’s your chance would you fall to pieces would you fall to pieces would you fall to pieces in the high countries? you drink the cup to the bottom, but it burns in your hands the cup was poured out on the Maker instead out on the green plains, i am but a ghost bound up with all that i call “mine,” still the light grows would you fall to pieces would you fall to pieces would you fall to pieces in the high countries? * Wednesday, August 06, 2003 *
monet.
i want to share some of my favorite paintings with you. they are all paintings of the rouen cathedral by claude monet.      "you can turn off the sun, but i'm still gonna shine..." -jason mraz * Monday, August 04, 2003 *
worship.
have you ever listened to a band called waterdeep? i have a worship album that they put out a few years back that i love. i was listening to it last night for the first time in a long time while i was cleaning up the kitchen after dinner... and before i knew it i was just standing in the middle of the kitchen with tears streaming down my face. i felt that God was there and He loved me even though i have been paying attention to myself these days and not as much to Him. it was heart breaking and wonderful all at the same time. so... i feel refreshed this morning. i haven't done any bible reading in a few months. i think i will do some when i get home from work today. it's funny to me (not funny haha) that so much time has passed and yet i'm still dealing with the same struggles of complacency and doubt and all those spiritual battles that i was dealing with in high school. sometimes i get scared that nothing has changed in me, and in my relationship with Christ. i want to believe i have changed though... and in a way these struggles are so good because they mean i am still alive and kicking and trying to survive. perserverance builds character! yay! "you poured out all your blood, you died upon the cross, you are my Jesus who loves me..." -waterdeep  |
