Sincerly Yours by GC Megaphone

In between all yesterdays and
tomorrows grows this flower I
love. I am drunk upon the nectar
of this flower called today. I hold
You responsible for the times I
laughed so hard my side hurt. I
love Your art. I'll be sure to
hopelessly adore the Artist.
(Chorus)
If I'm breathing, I know You're
somewhere close. I wanna be
sincere. You mean so much to me.
And I want to mean every word I
say. I want to be sincere. I want
to be for real. I'm sincerely Yours.
Let the words my body speaks be
the words that You had on the tip
of Your tongue. Give me
something. Take me somewhere.
Make me someone who believes.

I don't really have anything to say!

So I will just make more lists. Things I want to do someday.
  1. Ride an elephant and a camel
  2. Watch the sun rise over the ocean somewhere on the east coast
  3. Take dancing lessons
  4. Travel
  5. Make a rock and roll CD
  6. Live at the beach--Oceanside, Oregon is the best because it isn't touristy
  7. Get married and have as many children as God will trust me with
  8. Have a pitbull puppy all to myself
  9. Own my own horse -- maybe Julie will sell Stranger to me ;)
  10. Have laser surgery to correct my nearsightedness
  11. Be like Jesus
  12. Go to Israel
  13. Act-- movie, play, whatever
  14. Visit Cassie in Missouri
  15. Finish this some other time. I have things to do.

Mystery

Sunset over the ocean
like a scoop of fire being
dropped into the sea
Clouds like pink and orange rainbows
of finest silk hang and shift
in the salty breeze The sky to
the east slowly darkens
to the deepest of blues as
tiny prickpoints of stars sparkle to life against their
velvety backdrop Worship of the
Creator
swells from deep within
my soul like the rising of the tide
and pours from my eyes in the form
of grateful tears I do
not understand the fact that the
Designer and Arranger
of this wonder knows me intimately
and still loves me like no one ever will
He calls me to know Him this Untamed Lion who is
never safe but always good
I tremble I do not understand
but I accept this mystery with faith
He
has given to me I breathe
deeply inhaling the fragrance of Your breath
down into my lungs
praying to be changed
into Your likeness

Obsessed

Shouldn't we all be obsessed? Isn't that why we were created? To be obsessed with the One who is so obsessed with us He had to create us so we could know Him?

"You're my only infatuation!
Don't leave me stranded in my obsession!
My purpose, my posession! Live and die in my obsession!"

The word's to Skillet's aptly named song Obsession from their Collide album hits the nail on the head. I wish I could remember the words to the verses. It's an awesome song and (deep breath)I GOT TO SEE IT PERFORMED LIVE AT THE PORTLAND AQUIRE THE FIRE THIS YEAR!!!!! Yeah, it was cool. They are my favorites.
I'm tired of staring at the computer so I will stop. See y'all!

One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after. That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in His temple. When thou saidst, "Seek ye my face." My heart said unto thee, "Thy face Lord will I seek." Psalm 27:4,8

June 1

Well, here it is the first day of June! The year is almost 1/2 over already. I am sitting at the computer in the lobby of CCE during the break of algebra class.
I changed the setting that wouldn't allow non-bloggers from commenting. Now everyone can! You can also email an entry to a friend if you wanted. I had better go. CUL8R!
