Good times...

Oh yeah, that's right. LBT and I with Jeremy Camp. Enough said.

Mighty to Save

Everyone needs compassion...

Retreat

I'm going to break for a while. Not sure how I define "a while". Nor am I saying a song or two won't pop up at random intervals. Neither do I commit to not writing anything because my passion for a topic may override my desire for a break just as my mood fluctuations may require a vent. But overall and for the sake of peace in my mind, I've set the standard for a break.

I'm needing some overtime with God. I'm wanting to learn more of His ways. I need to make some adjustments and changes. I want to set some personal goals for myself which require time to assess. There are some actions I need to take and relationships I want to pay attention to. I want to grow in the Word. I want to grow in using the Word in prayer. I want to fight for my friends and loved ones using the Word of God as my weapon and be attuned to the Spirit as He leads. There are situations I am spittin' mad about and I need to learn how to make that effective for the Kingdom of God. There are circumstances that although it is God's grace that provides my strength in walking through, I feel like I'm left in a state of helplessness with my hands being tied. I know that I am not, but I want to take the time with God to search things out, to reflect and ponder on who He is in the middle of situations and circumstances, and to grow in the Spirit.

I want to just "be" with God...so that's what I'm going to do.

City On Our Knees

It cracks me up that I like this song, but...I do. Something about picturing a city on it's knees in worship and surrender to God just gets me. Also the line "If you gotta start somewhere, why not here" really brings things into focus. BTW, this is Toby Mac.
