Enough
Saturday, November 5th, 2011Blessings
Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011I heard this song on the radio earlier today and it’s been stuck in my head since.
Not Ready To Make Nice – Dixie Chicks
Monday, August 8th, 2011Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting
I’m through with doubt
There’s nothing left for me to figure out
I’ve paid a price
And I’ll keep paying
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I know you said
Can’t you just get over it
It turned my whole world around
And I kind of like it
I made my bed and I sleep like a baby
With no regrets and I don’t mind sayin’
It’s a sad sad story when a mother will teach her
Daughter that she ought to hate a perfect stranger
And how in the world can the words that I said
Send somebody so over the edge
That they’d write me a letter
Sayin’ that I better shut up and sing
Or my life will be over
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
I’m not ready to make nice
I’m not ready to back down
I’m still mad as hell and
I don’t have time to go round and round and round
It’s too late to make it right
I probably wouldn’t if I could
‘Cause I’m mad as hell
Can’t bring myself to do what it is you think I should
What it is you think I should
Forgive, sounds good
Forget, I’m not sure I could
They say time heals everything
But I’m still waiting
Something More
Sunday, May 22nd, 2011Break Even
Thursday, March 31st, 2011Born to….
Monday, July 19th, 2010I was born to follow,
Lead by your hand.
I was born to be bent,
Molded to your plan.
Something I learned…
Monday, July 12th, 2010Earlier I blogged about our new house and how much of a blessing its been. What I didn’t mention was something else that I learned in the process. When things go wrong in our lives, the normal response is to ask why. Why is this happening to us? Why is God letting this happen? What did we do to deserve this?
Yes – sometimes bad things happen as a result of bad choices we make. After all – with choice comes consequence. So don’t read this and assume that I think this applies to everything that might go wrong.
But it does apply to this particular situation.
We’ve been in the same house for 4 years. We’ve never made any serious attempt to buy a house – other then one 2 day long exception when we briefly considered buying the house we were in. We were comfortable – and we weren’t looking for anything else. We were happy where we were. So when we lost that home – I was devastated. I couldn’t understand why God was letting it happen. What He was trying to teach us.
And then – we found this house. A house we would never have even considered looking at 2 months ago – because we had no interest in moving. So God has this wonderful blessing for us – but the only way He could get us to see it was to first take us out of our comfort zone so we would have no choice but to look.
God is not an idiot – He always has a plan. Sometimes – when we think we’re losing something – He may just be making room for something even better – something we would never have seen otherwise.
One Thing I Know
Thursday, July 8th, 2010If you knew me the way He knows me – you would not love me. And yet – He has never turned His back on me. Not for a second.
Kahlan's Song
Monday, March 29th, 2010My Baby You by Marc Anthony was one of the top 40 songs right around the time that I got pregnant with Kahlan and it was one of my favorites. It’s not really a lullaby – its more of a love song – but I used to sing this to Kahlan to put him to sleep.
I Wonder (Written By Me)
Thursday, March 18th, 2010You are my everything,
The biggest part of me,
The very air I breath,
And when they look at me,
I wonder if they can see,
That it’s your heart,
That beats inside of me.
You are the smile on my face,
The joy that fills my heart,
You are the reason I can sing,
And when they hear me laugh,
I wonder if they can hear,
That it’s your heart,
That beats inside of me.
You’re where I want to be,
Your love is all I see,
The longing of my heart,
And when they touch me,
I wonder if they can feel,
That it’s your heart,
That beats inside of me.
