You Have Me- Gungor

Out on the farthest edge
There in the silence you were there
My faith was torn to shreds
My heart out of balance
And you were there

Always faithful
Always good
You still
Have me
You still have my heart

I thought I had seen the end everything broken
But you were there
I’ve wandered at Heaven’s gate
I’ve made my bed in Hell
But you were there still


You have me
You have me
You have my heart completely

• -To have a family that new how to communicate to one another.
• -A group of best (girl) friends, I could do everything with, who didn’t cause drama.
• -A mouth full of words to share in endless meaningful conversations.
•  -A thriving ministry full of devoted and faithful leaders.
• -A Rhodes in my future living room.
• -A miniature cafe’ in my kitchen.
• -A car that didn’t require me to put gas in it every other day.
• -An answer to the big question,” What is my calling!?”
• -A faith that could help change a generation.

Sigh, I’m just saying, it’d be nice. I know nothing is impossible for You, Lord..Do what You will.

When I read this I quickly thought of the Holy spirit. There’s something about the presence of the Holy spirit in a place that rules out every other inhabitant of that space. Full of overwhelming power— screw drugs, that stuff is temporary. The presence of God is ever lasting.

And for you ladies, there is something about a woman who is always full of Him and spends frequent time in His presence. I can imagine our beauty being amplified or made genuine/legitimate there.

I will not give up.

The only thing on my summer wish list— <3

This song.. These dudes.. Just amazing.

I grew up with her and we did almost everything together as kids: Grammar school, middle school, high school, and even the littlest bit of college together. I sincerely believe that she was placed into my life in different seasons and will remain being woven in and out of my life for the rest of it. Today is her birthday and even though this current season she is elsewhere, I know my prayers for her will bridge the distance that lays between us.

I pray that you continue to live and learn— gather the knowledge you feel you need to gain at this point in your life but don’t forget the God who grants it to you. Be reminded of His love for you and His promises over your life. Know that he has a distinct plan for you— I pray that your natural leadership gifting is strengthened and refined. That your eyes be widened to the vast amount of grace that has been laid over you and your family. That the rest of your years be dedicated to the Father and your efforts be shifted towards benefiting the kingdom. That your influence on those you come into contact with may be only for good. May the confidence you hold be holy and come from Gods reassurance rather than pride and self indulgence.. That he become more valuable to you than anything else the world has to offer you. I pray over your mind and heart that it may be given back to Him. He loves you immensely as do I.. 

Happy Birthday Beauty.. I’ll see you around.

Why is it so tempting to “love pleasure rather than God”? Pleasure is something we can control; God cannot be controlled. Most pleasures can be obtained easily; love for God requires effort and sometimes sacrifice. Pleasure benefits us now; the benefits of loving God are often in the future. Pleasure has a narcotic effect; it takes our minds off ourselves and our problems. Love for God reminds us of our needs and our responsibilities Pleasure cooperates with pride. It makes us feel good when we look good in the eyes of others. To love God we must lay aside our pride and our accomplishments. Have you chosen to love pleasure, or to love God? How do you know?

There is 213 {or less} days left in until the first day of the rest of my life with my one.

Father, you know me well. You know my every thought, dream, motive, and desire. Deal with me and continue to grow and stretch me in this season. Thank you for your love and for the love I have here on earth.

This song will be played October 6th 2012 for sure.. Lucy Schwartz—Porcelain  ::sigh::

CHECK OUT OUR WEDDING WEBSITE/tumblr! Its still under construction, mind you. But I couldn’t help but give you a peek.

Is it wrong for people of the faith to hold an extended grudge against someone else in the church? How long is too long? Lets talk about it?!
