Sometimes don't you wish you could rip days out like a sheet of notebook paper and crumble it in your hands.-Eredmond

He asked me what I was passionate about
What I loved and what I liked.
I saw something in him that was in someone I once loved
But he was not the same man
He came at a different season in my life
To a different place
A different woman
Through him time healed my wounds
Time does heal... This I know
But the memory of pain you never forget with every new person
With even the slightest crush your heart reminds you of the death that once took place in your spirit
In this recollection you are cautioned to take it slow
Be sure of how you feel
And to know what you want

God of this City

This has become one of my fav. songs over the past year. The words are amazing. The story is real. It is the hope for my life and the city in which I live.

You’re the God of this city, You’re the King of these people, You’re the Lord of this nation, You are…
You’re the Light in this darkness, You’re the Hope to the hopeless, You’re the peace to the restless, You are…
there is no one like our God, there is no one like our God…
greater things have yet to come and greater things are still to be done in this city, greater things have yet to come and greater things are still to be done in this city -Chris Tomlin


There is a group in Belfast Ireland called Blutree. They had the chance to play and lead worship in an actual brothel. As they were playing one evening this song just came to life out of a time of worship. In that dark and desolate place this song God breathed into life. It’s a song of hope and victory. It’s a song of comfort and peace knowing that there is NO ONE like our God


Im excited to see what God does. I know he is going to do things bigger than I can imagine. Things only he can do. He has never let me down. Even at the last minute (11:59) and Ive wondered. Lord, where are you? He came through. He was there.

I first heard this song a church. And I saw the vision and the purpose that my church has. For my generation and our city. I became overwhelmed with compassion and filled with purpose to reach out. To a lost and dieing world. I hope you will do the same. We are commanded to love one another. 1John 4:7, ;4:12 ,Romans 12:10 and to act upon this love. If Christ is truly within us.
Ok, Wow it just dawned on me this morning that I haven't blogged since Dec. I know, I know I suck at this. I'm really going to try harder. PROMISE!!!

Spring is approaching. Not fast enough its still too chilly for me. I feel spring fever slowly entering into my veins. I get giddy when its warm enough to wear a tshirt and a cardigan(thats my thang) maybe even flip flops. You say upper 60's I perk up a little. When its awesome outside you want to do awesome things. Like: run, jump, swing on the monkey bars like I had a chance to do last thurs. I had a blast doing random things with my Justin just because it was warm and just because :). I was thankful and aware of the goodness of the God I serve. I was thankful that he is in control even over the seasons in our lives. And even though Fall and Summer are my favs. I still appreciate all of the seasons.They teach us lessons. They produce growth within us. Whether it may be goodness or calamity. There is a purpose and plan for them all.
In this Im reminded of: To every thing there is a {a} season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven. Ecc. 3:1
