power in present
your all running.
with time behind you
silver clouds.
on a grey day
chalky highway
infront.
your legs cant take it
you are barely making it
you are fighting gasping breathing
for fresh air
to keep you going.
behind you nothing fits
scattered pieces and torn pictures eclipse
in front theres no sign.
no form no shape as plain as night
but in this moment...
with your sweat beading palms
reaching back
and forth
and the sound of fearless trods beneath you-
there you are.
you are colorful and sure.
you pause for a moment
but then get up for more.
a tender smile
as things start to take shape
where you came from
where youll stay
doesnt matter
its how you finish the race.
with time behind you
silver clouds.

HAD THE BEST VDAY EVER
GOD IS SO GOOD
GOD IS LOVE.

CAN IT GET BETTER? REALLY.:D
GOD IS SO GOOD
GOD IS LOVE.

CAN IT GET BETTER? REALLY.:D
NEW every MORNING.
My Lord your compassion are new every morning. great is your faithfulness.
you know what is crazy? how God can take my brokenness and assure me
that He alone is God- and my joy is found in Him. wow. Praise Him.
Check this
Lamentations 3:21-44
22 Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. 23 They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. 24 I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." 25 The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; 26 it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord. 27 It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is young. 28 Let him sit alone in silence, for the Lord has laid it on him. 29 Let him bury his face in the dust-- there may yet be hope. 30 Let him offer his cheek to one who would strike him, and let him be filled with disgrace. 31 For men are not cast off by the Lord forever. 32 Though he brings grief, he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love. 33 For he does not willingly bring affliction or grief to the children of men. 34 To crush underfoot all prisoners in the land, 35 to deny a man his rights before the Most High, 36 to deprive a man of justice-- would not the Lord see such things?

37 Who can speak and have it happen if the Lord has not decreed it? 38 Is it not from the mouth of the Most High that both calamities and good things come? 39 Why should any living man complain when punished for his sins? 40 Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord.

i've never any time to play
it always seems to slip away
or it never really goes by
while i wait here with my level head
for our only try
sing with your head up
with your eyes closed;
not because you love the song,
because you love to sing
because you love to sing, oh
you saw frustration on my brow
you noticed i'm distracted now.
i'm thinking only of my billfold
and how I want to face you with
diamonds and gold in my hand, in my hand
sing with your head up
with your eyes closed
not because you love the song
because you love to sing
because you love to sing, oh
i've never any time to play
it always seems to slip away
or it never really goes by
while i wait here with my level head
for our only try
sing with your head up
with your eyes closed;
not because you love the song,
because you love to sing
because you love to sing, oh
you saw frustration on my brow
you noticed i'm distracted now.

old prose i wrote -words of the past
what is an addiction?
can one be addicted to something other than a drug?
is there something as powerful as substance addictions?
well that answer is yes.
because you can be addicted to something in your life detrimental to your existence.. that has nothing to do with you physically.
its a heart thing, a soul thing a love thing.
love - the greatest addiction of them all
breaks barriers moves people moves lives.
what happens when lust disguised as love takes hold of your heart?
how do you break free from the pain of wanting something that will only leave you wounded?
how do you break free from making the same mistake..over and over..and over..again.
looking back only leaves you desolate..wondering where your strength went..and how it was stolen away by your fixation.
everyone seems to know... everyone seems to have it together. these perfect pillars of sanity.. make you feel like falling on the weak knees of inadequacy.
how could you? how could you do it to yourself? someone so loved so cherished so embraced.
where came the need for acceptance.. acceptance from a thief of truth a giver of malice a figure...of your imagination.
o how the human mind wanders! and creates a nightmare into a romantic saga.
yet the truth never falters.
when you wake up ..you will still break into a sweat.trembling from truth reveled from the light shining on your scars from the image in a clear mirror of...you.
caramel eyes shining tears filling to the rim.
your addiction has taken you to question the person within.
you are loved here on this physical thriving planet.
but you have been siezed in love, captured in love, caught in love, wrought in love...by the most high.
you.. a daughter of the king.
what made you betray your position.
your position to be a truth giver..and a light.
you tied the rope around your wrists.
you watched as you delved deeper..into your sin.
you hid it you grew it..into an addiction.
an addiction different from the rest.
because it has a name it has a face..
your addiction birthed in lust wrapped in emotion grew into care.
genuine pure care thrown to the wind meaning nothing.
what do you do when you realize you were wrong?
when you look at the face of your friends and the pain isnt all gone?
disappointment..
from them to you.. a gift that can break your heat yet lead you to something new.
but i have no shame in life... no fear in death..
i was bought with a price...
He saw my sin
He saw my addiction
that has been holding me tight
He saw the mistakes I kept making
over and over and over...again.
though almost unthinkable i default in such doings..
somehow He knew
and loves me through it.
a righteous man will fall 700 times ..
but will always get up.
so i get up.
we have to.
to remain would be to ignore the truth of your freedom
your freedom bought with the blood of your lover..
so dust me off break the shackles tied to my heart
turn me around and carry me
these are the tough times
where for once you realize
your strength..is simply not enough
your strength..your own will power.. has become nothing in the face of your storm.
but peace be still in the thundering corners of your heart.
the peace that surpases understanding
will bind overflowing wounds placed by your. addiction.
should i remain still and stare blindly in my defeat?
wondering how could i why did i so many times?
no.
to do so will keep me.there.
so move.
all we have is this present moment.
to live or dwell anywhere else..
is cheating us out of abundant seconds minutes and hours..
and out of a future marred not by defeat.. but by a new beginning.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!

DEVOTION
anyone can be devoted-whole heatedly-to anything
devoted to the point
of tears
devoted to the point of pain
devoted to the point of prayer
and sacrifice
no doubt there lies
sincerity in devotion
no doubt that true emotion
overflows from dedication and fervor
but alas.
when each dying breath has gone
no matter how much you were devoted
what matters is Who.
Who and what were you devoted to?
when all is said and done.
that
will
make
all
the
difference.
devoted to the point

part of a prayer i wrote to God about a week and a half ago and now found. i was sitting in my dim cozyish room and let my heart overflow.
i am confused about the human condition
when will it be my chance
to love
to break free
to have the ending
where faces sulk and eyes get wet
and everyone is smiling
selfish spirrit
focus on others
yet my mind waits for a dream come true
but how so?
in a wretched world
spun with evil
will
a beautiful life
unravel
from its tight life pulsing
grasps
i dont know
i want to feel
i want someone to
feel with me
the same
and consitant
holding hands standing on te edge of
the unknown
is a beautiful
thing to behold
im willing
i am ready
my heart is always
hoping enduring ready to love till
i cant anymore.
who could love me back like that?
pure and endless
constant..
i sit here wondering..
if i will ever find that on earth.
my chances are immensly slim.
the movies and pictures.. miror a lie.
but truth flows from
the pages
of the BOOK
and i have no where to
go
but the foot of Him
who wrote them.
let me wait on you.
joyfully. my hope.
i want to love you
i want to know you King.even love
here on earth.. with all its vigor
is nothing
ccompared to how you love me..
captivate me
stop me . pursue me God
when will it be my chance
to love
to break free
to have the ending
where faces sulk and eyes get wet
and everyone is smiling
selfish spirrit
focus on others
yet my mind waits for a dream come true
but how so?
in a wretched world
spun with evil

a beautiful life

sorry! this is the BETTER VERSION OF THE BEST SONG EVER I WAS LISTENING TODAY BY SIGUR ROS!! AHHHH
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0AZIFmkogY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0AZIFmkogY
listen
so, i was walking
in the freezing cold (to me anyway) ha..
well the sky was crystal blue
and i was listening to this masterpiece of a song
- this one------> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfrQdGL-8bU&feature=related
this is quite possible the most gorgeous piece of music i have ever had the privilege of listening too. it is sung in Icelandic. this whole band pour beauty and passion into their music bear with it it is long .:D any how
the trees were pasted against the sky
looking like paper cut out shapes
glued to blue.
the wind blew pieces of brown leaves
that swirled and fell around me.
as i walked i just was amazed
at the WONDER of the world.
this intricate universe.. a tree this thing
that has roots under the grown
and feeds and lives from the dirt and sun
branches reaching upwards.
i could never make that.
i walked more and the air seeped into my core
i put my hands in warm pockets and pressed on
the music lifting chords in my heart
and guiding this traveler.
grass and light
smiles and hugs
passionate learning in the classroom
teary eyes at truth learned
warmth and rest
laughter
people
all creation
is shouting His name.
listen.

He loves me right now like this. Jesus_our mediat0r with God
key things God showed me this weeknd
-we are loved right now. with every single one of my faults and shortcomings
-there is nothing i can do good or bad to make God love me more or less
- i dont need to try to alter my behavior or strive for a moral code- THAT DOESNT PLEASE GOD- that is striving on my own accord. what pleases God is trusting him!-
the bible is to reveal Gods heart to me-it is living and powerful-and it invites us to have a RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD!
-"for God so loved the world that he gave His only son.." he already loved me before i knew Him!
-YES WE ARE SINFUL-BUT i have no way of overcoming sin without my FATHER
-we are His children right now! heirs of God
i have been forgetting the cross. that bc of christs sacrifice in my place-God looks at me, a sinful being, and thinks im wonderful,and he HOLY amazing,looks at me through the cross-no longer separated-i can call him my father.
-getting to know God is about trusting Him-not about knowlege or getting an inspirational thought for the day!
-HE desires to know us and whether i run away or sit at his feet HE IS LOVE. he is the definition of it he created it . and his love is uncontitional and faithful and ENDURES.
-everything i do, should not be in my human effort to PLEASE GOD -but out of the overwelming relationship and trust I find in Him! in trusting him i obey and in obeying i will please him.
so i strive not to be moral-but to be in relationship with the Lord of Lords -who made a way for me to connect with Him. wow basically my head is overflowing and my heart is full! how great is our God. ill be posting more points i have to do this so i member! praise Him!!
