Philippians 4:4-9

Your love is strong

Heavenly Father
You always amaze me
Let your kingdom come
In my world and in my life
You give me the food I need
To live through the day
And forgive me as I forgive
The people that wronged me
Lead me far from temptation
Deliver me from the evil one

I look out the window
The birds are composing
Not a note is out of tune
Or out of place
I look at the meadow
And stare at the flowers
Better dressed than any girl
On her wedding day

So why do I worry?
Why do I freak out?
God knows what I need
You know what I need

Your love is
Your love is
Your love is strong

The kingdom of the heavens
Is now advancing
Invade my heart
Invade this broken town
The kingdom of the heavens
Is buried treasure
Will you sell yourself
To buy the one you've found?

Two things you told me
That you are strong
And you love me
Yes, you love me

Our God in heaven
Hallowed be
Thy name above all names
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us today our daily bread
Forgive us wicked sinners
Lead us far away from our vices
And deliver us from these prisons

Remembering the truth

I know who I am... without you.

Wow what a year it's been. I have lost and have gained. I have mended much. I have broken much. I have helped and hurt others. But here I am... still here. Praise God.

Listened to this song today. After much reflection, I realize that God took a lot of people away from me in the last couple of years for a reason. This was my song to those people. And now, I can say that because of God's grace, I know who I am without those people.

My love...

The space in between us
Starts to feel like we're worlds apart
Like I'm going crazy
And you say it's raining in your heart
You're telling me nobody's there to dry up the flood
Oh but that's just crazy
Cause baby I told you I'm here for good

My love's like a star
You can't always see me
But you know that I'm always there
When you see one shining
Take it as mine and remember I'm always near
If you see a comet, baby I'm on it
Making my way back home
Just follow the glow
It won't be long
Just know that you're not alone

I try to build the walls to keep you safe
When I'm not around
But as soon as I'm away from you
You say they come tumbling down
But it's not about the time
That we don't get to spend together
Oh it's about how strong our love is
When I'm gone and it feels like forever

You say the time away makes your heart grow numb
But I can't stay just to prove you wrong
Oh look at how far we've come
Don't you know that you're the one
Oh, you're not alone
Know that you're not alone
