I Know

-
I believe, You are here always, forever
I believe, that Your love covers all
I believe, You sent Your Son to die
and I believe, You saved us from the fall

I know, You protect me as I sleep
I know, You want only the best of best
I know, You see my deepest dreams
and I know, You are a place of rest


I may stray, from Your perfect path
I may fall, along the way
I may think, I need to know it all
But I BELIEVE, that You know all
and that's all I need to know.


I believe, You made me as I am
I believe, You gifted me with life
I believe, creation knows Your voice
and I believe Your power conquers strife

I know, You have me in your hand
I know, You shelter me from the storm
I know, You offer grace and peace
and I know, You love my broken form

I may lose, my sight from time to time
I may let, my flesh get in the way
I may think, I need to know it all
But I BELIEVE, that You know all
and that's all I need to know.

The World in Constant Flux

I was sitting in a philosophy class the other day and we were debating whether the world is constant or constantly in flux. Later in the week I brought up this question with some of my friends: "Can you ever step into the same river twice? Is it actually the same river?" I will tell you, there is nothing more entertaining than breaking out an obscure question like this at a party or gathering. You definitely get some interesting looks, and some great conversation! But the question remains, does anything in our world stay the same? Even if the river is in the same place, with the same name, is it actually the same as it was yesterday? And even if we are who we are, with the same name and identity, are we really the same as last week? Or even 5 minutes ago? Change is constant. Even if we grasp onto our current reality in a desperate attempt to avoid change, it will inevitably come. So why do so many want to dodge change? Fear...fear of the unknown. We have the illus

Tear Up the List

How many people find it really hard to relax? As I was watching Iron Man 3 the other night I felt myself thinking how lazy I am. Here is this guy who never sleeps, builds extravagant machinery on a perpetual basis and flies all over the world fighting the bad guys. And here I had slept in that morning... Yet as I was talking to a friend today at lunch, she commented on how much energy I have and how insanely busy my schedule is. Apparently, booking a lunch date with me is next to impossible. When I told her how lazy I have been feeling lately, she almost fell off her chair laughing! Her response?? "You haven't even been able to sit still through our hour long meal!!" How many of us are working harder than we have ever in our life and yet feel like we are not doing enough? When there is a free hour in our day, we wonder what we are missing; what we have forgotten to get done. When I have no immediate tasks in front of me, I often find myself searching my mental &q

Steadfast

Searing seas of emotion Tossing us from crest to depth Balance threatened by the shift Certainty wavering in the toss Fickle feelings playing games The mind deceived by beliefs Unfounded and falsely created Setting a cardboard stage Living based on roving moods Changing winds stirring up sands confusion and deceit whipped around Blurring our true vision Surrendering the truth of matters To inconclusive evidence Compulsions of the moment Scattering rational realities Step away from the crumbling edge Ground the day in contemplation Set foundations in the known Tread solid in the truth
