Sing and Dance

Sing oh children
Lift up your voices
Dance oh loves
Be at peace tonight
God is with you
God hears your songs
And sees your dance
He is well pleased with you
His heart swells
When He sees you so
For He knows
You do it for Him
So sing oh children
And dance for love
Bring back the peace
And the joy
You once knew
Oh lovers of God

A Messy Ring and A Broken Heart

I saw you again the other day
In a dream I had
You were looking blue
So I ask what was up
You just waved your hands
Then you began to cough
And I saw that you couldn't breathe
I quickly got behind you
And tried to help you out
After a few seconds
Something flew from your mouth
It was the ring I gave you
I ask why it was in your mouth
And you told me
You were taking it off
To give it back
That you and I just weren't meant to be
But you loved me
And you would miss me
But you could never see me again
So with a kiss
You walked away
Leaving me standing
With a messy ring
And a broken heart

God's Guidance

I can't express the way I feel
This torment deep inside
I want to scream
And destroy things
I can't fight this frustration
Life just keeps pushing
I can't seem to stay in the clear
Always being pushed til the brink
Always being tested to a new extreme
Time and time again
I find myself on my face
Pleading God to take this all away
To take me from this pain
I know He hears me
I know he won't let me go too far
He only allows as much as I can handle
I just got to learn to handle
God I'm begging you
Lift me up
Carry me while I am down
God keep me from temptations
Ones so easy to slide into
God let your hand be with with
Guide me through the valley
Help me reach the summit once more

Only You

I am captured by your love
Only you can make me feel this way
Nothing can compare
When I talk with you
Late at night
I feel like I could never sleep
And keep hearing your voice
Til the day I am deceased
Your love keeps me surrounded
Happy and lively
None can place a finger on it
None can change my mood
Only you
Can melt my heart
And freeze my time
All at the same time
You keep me waiting
Til I see you again
My arms are aching
Til I can hold you again
Until that day
I'll keep my dreams
Focused on you
And our love growing stronger

All You Have to Do is Ask

Today I read the prayer of jabez. For those of you who don't know what that is, its a highly written about prayer that is randomly thrown into the middle of a very long genealogy story. And it is only one sentence long but it is so important and so influential. Today I also hung out with some friends but as soon as alcohol was introduced I decided it was time for me to make my leave, because a true Christian doesn't want to be around that, plus it looks kind of off. So instead of partying I said my goodnight and went home to finish reading and to talk to my roommate for a while. Now I'm sitting down to write this blog and I'm wondering what to write as a poem tonight. I want to be impressionable about who I am in Christ, and I want people to see me and really see how God is working in me, but thats something that is a day by day thing.

Don't be afraid child
I am with you
Your path I have chosen
I knew you before you were in the womb
I loved you before the Earth
I want to bless you
I want you to know me
I am God your father
I have prepared a place in heaven
For you to be
When I call you home
All I ask
Is that you put your faith in me
Trust me with your life
I will keep your path straight
All you have to do is ask
I will bless you abundantly
All you have to do is ask
I will make you a fisher of men
Just follow my son
Obey my commands
Love everyone
I will be with you
Trust in me
And your life will be blessed

Another Year at School

So another year at CalU is about to start. Our motto CALU4LIFE!!!! Because you legitimately never leave Cal, they find ways to keep you there four semester after you were supposed to graduate!!! Anyway that's not what I was going to write about. I talked to my girlfriend today for the first time in what seems like ages. I miss her very much and I hope to see her soon. But talking to her has made me see how exciting college can be. She's going to be a freshman this year at UPJ and it makes me think back to my freshman year. All the memories I had planned to keep. Now I look back at my freshman year and wish I had made more memories than, but its not to late, I've got two more years and I'm gonna make the most of it while I still have the time.

I'm staring at my life
Wondering where
All the years have gone
College is almost over
Two more years
That's all I have left
Then its hello world
Are you ready for me
Cus honestly I'm not ready for you
Life is a rushing wind
Gone before you know
Make what you can of it
You only get one
College is supposed to be
The best years of your life
So make the best of it
Don't let it pass you by
Too many opportunities will arise
That will never come again
So make the best of your time
Live a little
Have some freedom
But know the limits
Don't get out of hand
But don't be afraid
To take a few chance
College will go quickly
Don't let it slip away

Follow the Leader

Hmmm, today, what shall I write about you. You and I had lots to think about and we had little else to do. I watched Dead Poets Society today it was great, I saw it once before but I wanted to rewatch it. It intrigued me so very much, and now that I'm older it made more sense and was a lot deeper to me. Robin Williams by far was a greater actor in the early to mid 90s when he did serious drama with his comical genius mixed in. A lot of his newer stuff just don't match up. But any way that was all I really did, beside take a lot of time to think and read. Today I've been trying to find answers to questions I don't have. People say that you can find all the answers in the bible, and I believe it, but if you don't know the questions you won't know the answer when you see it. So today was one of those day where I kept hoping to come across some scripture that jumped out and me and was like hey I'm the answer you are looking for, unfortunately this did not happen. However I did feel as though I had gotten to spend more much needed time with God than I had done most of the summer. And I had some crazy thoughts go through my head some sounded really good so I made them facebook statuses, and now I shall make them a poem and grow it into something extraordinary like every poem should be!

Gotta take a break from this life from time to time
Gotta let your mind be free
So God can take control
You can't afford to lose your soul
Not like this
You gotta give it up
To the one who gave it all away
Just so you can be saved
Don't waste life
Live it right
You've got so much potential
Why you throwing it away
Don't you know
God has got your back
Your life
He planned that out
Before the world began
He knows you inside and out
So why not let Him
Take control
Give it up to Him
Watch the transformation begin
God loves you
He will use you
You just gotta let Him
Be blessed my brothers and sisters in Christ
Follow the leader
Woah that ain't me
Jesus is your leader
I'm a follower
Just like you
We all stumble
We all fall
But God is there
Let Him pick you up
He'll carry you
Til your ready to walk again
And He'll stay by your side
Til He calls you home again
So why not take a chance
God won't let you down
I'm living proof
God can love anybody
You just gotta ask
