“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung...”

A Simple Prayer
Dear God,
Thank you so much for all that you have blessed me with. I don’t deserve any of it. Not even my next breath. But each breath is a blessing because it gives me another moment to glorify you. Lord, all of my life is yours to give and take, and whether you choose to give or whether you choose to take, I will worship and glorify you.
Lord, sometimes I don’t understand...
Mad World
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever...
And if I should not wake up
Don’t be so ashamed of me,
You won’t lose me in my sleep.
I’ve been wandering in this dream
I can’t complete.
And if I should not wake up,
Please light my way with your love.
And into the night,
I will fly,
Away.
Keep On
Be convicted.
Be convinced.
Be communicating the truth.
Part of the Plan
Run when you can
Cry when you have to
Be who you must, that’s a part of the plan.
Await your arrival
With simple survival
And one day you’ll understand.

The Trip
It’s time for me to take a
trip home to JESUS.
To that big fishing camp in
the sky.
I hope that the greatest
FISHER of MEN of all
times,
Will deem me, a catch that
is big enough to keep.

Salt of the Earth
People don’t enjoy salt. They enjoy what is salted. We are the salt of the earth. We do not exist for ourselves.
I Can Only Imagine
I can only imagine What it will be like When I walk By your side I can only imagine What my eyes will see When your face Is before me I can only imagine Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all I can only imagine I...

Logical Absolutes Law of Identity Something is what it is, and isn’t what it is not. Something that exists has a specific nature.
For example, a cloud is a cloud, not a rock. A fish is a fish, not a car.
