This is a couple of songs that were sung in church today that I really enjoyed. I hope they bless you.

"Glow" by Hillsong

Verse 1:
"Lost and stranded
Empty handed
Broken down and all alone
Your mercy, it entered
Into darkness
And enfolded us in love

Pre-Chorus:
We give You all we are
For the glory of Your name
We give all we are
For Your praise

Verse 2:
Just a glimmer
Of Your glory
And the Earth falls to itÂ’s knees
You leveln the mountains
With a whisper
And You calm the raging seas

Pre-Chorus:
We give You all we are
For the glory of Your name
We give all we are
For Your praise

Chorus:
Let the Earth come to life
In the light of HeavenÂ’s glow
And the streets sound with joy
As the shackles lose their hold

You laid down Your life
For one and all
So we give all we are
To You alone

Verse 3:
This means freedom
For the captives
And good news for those in need
You message, is justice
And compassion
God of Love and Prince of Peace

Pre-Chorus:
We give You all we are
For the glory of Your name
We give all we are
For Your praise

Chorus:
Let the Earth come to life
In the light of HeavenÂ’s glow
And the streets sound with joy
As the shackles lose their hold

You laid down Your life
For one and all
So we give all we are
To You alone, you alone

Bridge:
With one voice we sing Hallelujah
All the Earth cry out Hallelujah
With the angels sing Hallelujah
Jesus Christ is King

Chorus:
Let the Earth come to life
In the light of HeavenÂ’s glow
And the streets sound with joy
As the shackles lose their hold

You laid down Your life
For one and all
So we give all we are
To You alone

We give everything
To you alone
We give everything
To you alone
We give everything
To you alone
We give everything"

"My Future Decided" by Hillsong United

"You hold the future in your hands
You know my dreams and you have a plan
And as you light my way, I'll follow you

My eyes on all of the above
My soul secure in all you've done
My minds made up
And you are the only one for me

Jesus, savior, in my life you are everything
My future decided, I will praise your name
And I know that I am, I am yours
Yeah, I know that I am, I am yours

You hold the earth in your command
You are the rock on which I stand
And as I live each day, I'll follow you

My eyes on all of the above
My soul secure in all you've done
My minds made up
And you are the only one for me

Jesus, savior, in my life you are everything
My future decided, I will praise your name
And I know that I am, I am yours
Yeah, I know that I am, I am yours

Aren't afraid, aren't ashamed Lord we know who we are
We are your people and we won't be silent
Unified hear us cry at the top of our lungs
You our God and we will not be shaken

Aren't afraid, aren't ashamed Lord we know who we are
We are your people and we won't be silent
Unified hear us cry at the top of our lungs
You our God and we will not be shaken

Jesus, savior, in my life you are everything
My future decided, I will praise your name
And I know that I am, I am yours
Yeah, I know that I am, I am yours"

"What the World will never take" by Hillsong United

"With all I'm holding inside
With all my hopes and desires
And all the dreams that I've dreamt

With all I'm hoping to be
And all that the world will bring
And all that fails to compare

You say You want all of me
I wouldn't have it any other way

I've got a Saviour and He's living in me
Whoa, I wanna know
I wanna know You today

And You're the best thing
That has happened to me
And the world will never take
The world will never take You away

With all I'm hoping to be
And all that the world will bring
And all that fails to compare

You say You want all of me
I wouldn't have it any other way

I've got a Saviour and He's living in me
Whoa, I wanna know
I wanna know You today

And You're the best thing
That has happened to me
And the world will never take
The world will never take You away

I've got a Saviour and He's living in me
Whoa, I wanna know
I wanna know You today

And You're the best thing
That has happened to me
And the world will never take
The world will never take You away

I've got a Saviour and He's living in me
Whoa, I wanna know
I wanna know You today

And You're the best thing
That has happened to me
And the world will never take
The world will never take You away

I've got a Saviour and He's living in me
Whoa, I wanna know
I wanna know You today

And You're the best thing
That has happened to me
And the world will never take
The world will never take You away

No one could ever take You away
No one can ever take You away"

Love is unstopable

Yeah yeah yeah..
Hey

So, so you made a lot of mistakes
Walked down the road a little sideways
Cracked a brick when you hit the wall
Yeah, you've had a pocket full of regrets
Pull you down faster than a sunset
Hey, it happens to us all

When the cold hard rain just won't quit
And you can't see your way out of it

CHORUS
You find your faith has been lost and shaken
You take back what's been taken
Get on your knees and dig down deep
You can do what you think is impossible
Keep on believing, don't give in
It'll come and make you whole again
It always will, it always does
Love is unstoppable

Love, it can weather any storm
Bring you back to being born again
oh, it's a helping hand when you need it most
A lighthouse shinning on the coast
That never goes dim

When your heart is full of doubt
And you think that there's no way out

CHORUS
You find your faith has been lost and shaken
You take back what's been taken
Get on your knees and dig down deep
You can do what you think is impossible
Keep on believing, don't give in
It'll come and make you whole again
It always will, it always does
Love is unstoppable

Like a river keeps on rolling
Like the north wind blowing
Don't it feel good knowing
Yeah

CHORUS
You find your faith has been lost and shaken
You take back what's been taken
Get on your knees and dig down deep
You can do what you think is impossible
Keep on believing, don't give in
It'll come and make you whole again
It always will, it always does
Love is unstoppable

Love is unstoppable
So you made a lot of mistakes
Walked down the road a little sideways
Love, love is unstoppable

You know, I've figured out that nothing is as wonderful as the feeling you have when you put your complete trust in Jesus. Because you know you have nothing to fear. Absulutly nothing. =) Thank you for taking our burdens, Jesus! "Our God is an awesome God!"
The other day I was thinking (Yes, I finally have some time to that again =]). "My hearts only desire is to worship you (Jesus)". And that really is what our hearts are crying out for. Not just some little worship here and there. Not only at church when they have "worship" time. No, worshiping is for every second of the day. And there are lots of different types of worshiping. There is the worshiping singing with songs and writing songs or poetry or whatever the Lord Most High has you doing. Then there is also the worship of our lives. What I mean by that is just.... I think, that when we do whatever the Lord wishes in our life, if we constantly seek Him, put our trust in Him, respect authority, honour our parents, and whatever else the Lord commands us to do, I think that this is the best kind of worship ever. I think that this is the sweetest music to our Lord's ear. And if you think about it, this is what makes you truly happy, isn't it? I believe this is because when we do this, we are doing God's perfect will for our lives.
And I just found out today that my brother is going to be stationed in Hawaii after he finishes bootcamp. I guess I wasn't expecting him to be stationed near here, but I could hope couldn't I? And when his unit roatates next (after Hawaii) he'll be going to either Iraq or Afganistan. That is really hard. I miss him. Oh well, everyone has to grow up sometime I guess. lol.

A little bity post

I'm watching a spelling bee. I'm such a nerd!! lol. It is amazing what these kids know! And they're younger than me. Hmm, I think a spelling bee would be fun, but I wouldn't want all the studying. lol. I'm really in summer mode right now. I do not feel like doing anymore school, lol. Oh well, only like a week left. Right now, I'm really thanking God for my most awesome friends! They are there for me no matter what. What are you thanking God for?

Randomness

Has decided facebook doesn't know what it is talking about. It called me a un-weird loser >:(. Lol, I took a quiz and it said that I wasn't weird at all and that I was a loser because I was so normal. But, I actually tried to get "normal". Because I actually am weird. Lol, and I think all my friends will vouch for that, right? lol. Anyway, what have you been up to recently? I've been so busy that I really haven't even had time to think. Hense why my posts have changed a bit. Because I don't really have anything deep I've been pondering. Well, besides the fact that time seems to go slowly, but I never have time for all the things I do. lol, but it should settle down after softball season ends, and then I'll be bored! Anyway. I know a good place to start some conversations. What has God been teaching YOU?
I hope to hear from you.... =P

I hope you laugh at this

Here are some funny things that have happened to me recently.

I was talking to one of my best friends on the phone. Me "Oh, by the way, never take a walk in the pouring rain in high-heeled flip-flops." My Friend: "What idiot would do that?!?!" Me: "Well, considering I'm doing it right now... I know, I'm a dork but ya gotta love me!" My friend: "Yes, you are a dork. And I do love you."

At my softball game as we watched the other team warm up. One of my teammates: "Wow. They are gonna be so EASY to beat! They throw like girls!" Another teammate: "They ARE girls." "Yeah but they don't have to THROW like girls!"

My Friend from the first Scenerio while we were still on the phone: "A lady never says no..." Me: "Well, add that to the already long list of why I'm not a lady." XD I do dearly love being a tomboy! I like dressing up like once a year. But I like to be a tomboy more.

I got off Facebook the other day because I got bored. Five minuets later I got back on Facebook because I got bored. XD

And on sunday I got to play softball in the pouring rain! Such a privelege, I mean... Actually, I really did enjoy it. I got to get all dirty and not get in trouble for it! But I did end up with a sprained elbow, a nice sunburn and an imprint of third base cut into my leg. But hey, we won both games, so all is good! And I made some new friends.

Anyway, I couldn't think of anything else to write. So I wrote about some funny things. I hope you laughed at me and enjoyed this! Please, show your friends my blog! XD Like, all your friends. ;)
