I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior in earnest on April 20, 2008. This blog was created to help me take better notice of all the good in the world. I give glory to God for it all.

Believe--Day 130/Day 3

I don't know if I still have the strength to get up again
I don't know if I can face my own reflection
Jesus, take this heart that feels
so cold again, and make it new

I hold this hope inside that you'll never leave me

When all around me starts to fall,
and when my faith it seems so small
Even in my darkest hour, I will believe
Even if the sun begins to fall,
even when I feel nothing at all
Even if I'm all alone, I will believe

I don't know how I could turn my back and walk away
All I really want is for your love to hold me
Jesus, take this heart and make it whole again

I know you'll never leave me


Those are the lyrics to the song I added today. We all have days like this. Our faith doesn't seem as strong as usual and we don't know where our strength is going to come from. I've felt like that, but I know that as long as I believe, I will have better days. I also have days where my faith is so intense, I feel it wants to just explode out of me. That usually happens on Sundays. I try not confuse emotion with my faith, but just to see others praise Him, pray to Him, talk to Him, intently listen to a message about Him, confess to Him and thank Him is a beautiful thing. It's almost as if I somehow consume the faith of all those around me while they hold on to it as well.

I played Believe a couple times as I wrote this. Now, At the Cross is playing. I had actually started a blog about that song last week. I found it while looking for another song. As soon as I heard this one, though, I thought of, of course, Tracy. She's been blessed with a wonderful voice and I think she could sing better than the lead singer of Hillsong.

Colton joined in with me doing some pants painting tonight. We have to wear Awana's colors tomorrow night, so I thought we find some old pants and paint them. Hopefully Gabrielle gets a chance to make some tomorrow.

God Bless.
