| I've forgotten...
I've forgotten what it feels like to conquer sin...to feel that Satan was not my stumbling block this time. That I looked up to God when in need and said "You are more important to me than this" and then had the will to stare sin in the face and say "No."
I've forgotten what it feels like to sing from my soul. Not from my lungs, stomach or heart. Not even my emotional heart--but my soul. To sing praises to my most beautiful Lord of Lords...to feel my voice being lifted to where it cannot be torn down.
I've forgotten what its like to hold the most powerful thing in my hands--the Word of God. I've forgotten what its like to dwell in it and be filled with it.
I've forgotten what its like to cry. I've forgotten what its like to cry to God. To truly need Him, and to rely on Him.
I've forgotten what I'm here for. Instant gratification has become my fair-weather friend, and I have left behind my most faithful companion in return. I have looked for contentment instead of perfection. I have settled for the world even though I long for Heaven. I have surrounded myself with artificial happiness and still lie here with a broken heart.
But He has not forgotten. Oh no, no. The Bright and Morning Star in all His magnificent Glory has remembered me, and remembers me still. He lifts me up. He is my Savior, and he has not forgotten me. Forgive me Lord, for now I remember. I remember You, and all Your glory. | | |
| Sometimes you're on the straight and narrow...
sometimes you fall short of the goal...
othertimes you just feel like chaff in the wind...
at least God is with you through it all.
The One who is always True and Faithful...

| You are the first
You go before
You are the last
Lord, You're the encore
Your name's in lights for all to see
The starry host declare Your glory
Glory in the highest
Glory in the highest
Glory in the highest
Apart from You there is no god
Light of the world
The Bright and Morning Star
Your name will shine for all to see
You are the One
You are my Glory
And no one else could ever compare
To You, Lord
All the earth together declares ...
Glory in the highest ... to You, Lord
All the earth will sing Your praise
The moon and stars, the sun and rain
Every nation will proclaim
That You are God and You will reign
Glory, glory hallelujah
Glory, glory to You, Lord
Glory, glory hallelujah
Hallelujah | | |
| So its kind of sad that its now 2007, and I've had this darn thing since summer of 2003. Makes me sound pretty pathetic.
New year...w00t.
I think this is gonna be an interesting year. Very different from the few years past to say the least.
Hope everyone had a great holiday and what not.

| "But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord."
Luke 2:10-11
"When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying:
"Sovereign Lord, as you have promised,
you now dismiss your servant in peace.
For my eyes have seen your salvation,
which you have prepared in the sight of all people,
a light for revelation to the Gentiles
and for glory to your people Israel."
Luke 2:27-32
Salvation for all mankind. The greatest gift of all. From the One who deserves the most from us. Great is thy faithfulness O Lord! How my heart sings your praise on this wonderful day!
Merry Christmas to everyone, and may your hearts be blessed with the greatest gift of this holiday.
