Times- Tenth Avenue North

I don't know how, but these kids somehow wrote the greatest lyrics ever.

"I know I need you. I need to love you.
I love to see you, but its been so long.
I long to feel you. I feel this need for you.
And I need to hear you. Is that so wrong?
oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Now you pulled me near you, when we're close I fear you.
Still I'm afraid to tell you all that I've done.
Are you done forgiving? Or can you look past my pretending?
Lord, I'm so tired of defending what I've become.
What have I become?
oh oh, oh oh, oh oh.
I hear you say "my love is over, its underneath, its inside, its in between."
The times you doubt me, when you can't feel.
The times that you've questioned 'is this for real?'
The times you've broken, the times that you mend.
The times you hate me and the times that you bend.
Well my love is over, it's underneath, it's inside, it's in between.
These times you're healing and when your heart breaks.
The times that you feel like you've fallen from grace.
The times you're hurting, the times that you heal.
The times you go hungry and *are tempted* to steal.
In times of confusion and chaos and pain.
I'm there in your sorrow under the weight of your shame.
I'm there through your heartache, I'm there in the storm.
My love, I will keep you by my power alone.
I don't care where you've fallen, where you have been.
I'll never forsake you. My love never ends, it never ends.
mmm, mmm
oh oh, oh oh, oh oh"


THIS is my prayer to you. I wish everyone could experience and know Him. It's been life-changing and quite empowering. Even if you don't know God, He will always be there. There's no need to be ashamed because He always knows, He always hears, He always listens. These lyrics just put it all in place.

Lately

Things have been simpler. I don't feel as bogged down. PA helped me to find God in the right places instead of the wrong ones. Situations in
my life are easier to give over..and quite frankly I love it. I think I found myself again and I'm ready to show everyone I've changed. :) And Heather, thanks for giving me the love and support I've needed through all of this. You'll be in my heart always :) and thank you God for giving me all I need to succeed!

P.S. My own car! Let's go for a ride :D...after stick gets easier to use
