Your Hands

J.J. Heller - "Your Hands"

I have unanswered prayers
I have trouble I wish wasn't there
And I have asked a thousand ways
That You would take my pain away
That You would take my pain away

I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crooked lie
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

When You walked upon the Earth
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt
I know You hate to see me cry
One day You will set all things right
Yea, one day You will set all things right

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

Your hands
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave You when...

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave...
I never leave Your hands

Get back up

~Get Back Up~

TobyMac - "Tonight"

You turned away when I looked you in the eye
And hesitated when I asked if you were alright
Seems like you're fightin' for your life
But why, oh, why

Wide awake in the middle of your nightmare
You saw it comin' but it hit you out of nowhere
And there's always scars when you fall that far

We lose our way, we get back up again
It's never too late to get back up again
And one day you gonna' shine again
You may be knocked down, but not out forever

We lose our way, we get back up again
So get up, get up, you gonna' shine again
It's never too late to get back up again
You may be knocked down, but not out forever

You roll out of the dawning of the day
Heart racin' as you made your little get away
It feels like you been runnin' all your life
But why, oh, why

So you pull away from the love that would've been there
And start believin' that your situation's unfair
But there's always scars when you fall that far

This is love callin', love callin',
Out to the broken this is love callin'
This is love callin', love callin',
I am so broken
This is love callin', love callin'

Such a cool song!! Think about the words!

A different sort...

Me... at 4 am

Sometimes on school days I will get up at 4am... most of the time it is 5:00 or 5:30am... still, this is definitely what I feel like and it is a fairly accurate description of what I look like. (ie. don't mess with me at that point in my day... hehe)

My Grandpa...

Here is my grandpa... my friend, my hero, one of my greatest encouragers, and one of my best friends and most favorite people in the world. Grandpa, I will miss you. I love you!
