Yo heh heh tell him it's like uhh you know uhh
Sweet sweet SWEET tell him

Let me be patient let me be kind
Make me unselfish without being blind
Though I may suffer I'll envy it not
And endure what comes
Cause he's all that I got and
Tell him...

Tell him I need him [yeah]
Tell him I love him [tell him]
And it'll be alright
*Background singing* Telll himmm be alright be alright
Tell him tell him I need him
Tell him I love him
It'll be alright

Now I may have faith to make mountains fall
But if I lack love then I am nothin' at all
I can give away everything I possess
But left without love then I have no happiness
I know I'm imperfect [I know I'm imperfect]
& not without sin [& not without sin]
But now that I'm older all childish things end
And tell him...

Tell him I need him [yeah]
Tell him I love him [tell him]
And it'll be alright
*Background singing* Telll himmm be alright be alright
Tell him tell him I need him
Tell him I love him
It'll be alright

Bridge
I'll never be jealous
And I won't be too proud
Cause love is not boastful
Oooh and love is not loud
Tell him I need him
Tell him I love him
Everything's gonna be alright [w/ adlibs]
Ieee iee ieee iee iee iee iee iee

Now I may have wisdom and knowledge on Earth
But if I speak wrong then what is it worth?
See what we now know is nothing compared
To the love that was shown when our lives were spared
And tell him...

Tell him I need him [yeah]
Tell him I love him [tell him]
And it'll be alright
*Background singing* Telll himmm be allright be alright
Tell him tell him I need him
Tell him I love him
It'll be alright

God Saves Me Every Day

“Dwell as near as possible to the channel in which your life flows.”

Henry David Thoreau

‎"Teach us to care and not to care. Teach us to sit still." (T.S. Eliot, from Ash Wednesday)

Long before any other words were spoken to us, “You are mine” was spoken to the depths of our hearts.

And this is why we pray-to hear that voice again.

~ Becoming the Woman God Made You to Be

A meditation. The walk is a lonely walk and only a few can do it. The multitudes ignore the Truth and run to a completely different direction other than the True path. The message is given and no one cares to hear it, just a few. Much is taken from those who give ,but they, aren't even acknowledged by those to whom they gave,...how much more so the Almighty Father Who gives to all and is completely ignored! Many even deny His existence!
Alone we walk, but we aren't alone at all for the Lord Himself Is with us...the few.
Repent of sin, submit to the King of Kings, and live righteously. Pray that others may do the same and be saved.
One in Christ. God Is One!

"The martyr is a man who has made a decision strong enough to be proved by death.

The solitary is a man who has made a decision strong enough to be proved by the wilderness: that is to say, by death. For the wilderness is full of uncertainty and peril and humiliation and fear, and the solitary lives all day long in the face of death. Hence it is clear that the solitary is the martyr's younger brother.

It is the Holy Spirit Himself Who makes the decision that segregates martyrs and solitaries in Christ."

~ Thomas Merton

God loves us for who we are and gives us the courage to change. When we are able to love the “real me” and accept our own idiosyncrasies, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same.

I dream, I have angels wings, and I fly all over town in the sky

this world, used to bring me down until now
I fly
I dream I sleep upon the clouds, so warm as I wrap the cotton blanket around
this world,, couldnt realy bring me down now
Cuz I fly
And you help me, my life
yes you and I will never die
I dream Jesus takes me to the Father
and I kneel before him with humble heart
this world doesnt bring me down anymore
Cuz I Fly
And He has me, my life
Yes He gave you and I
is there more I could ask, is there something Im missing, why doesnt everyone feel the same as me
is there something I could ask for, what am I missing
Cuz I dream, I have angels wings and I fly all over town in the sky
and this world used to bring me down until now
I fly, fly, fly, fly, fly
I fly, fly, fly, fly, fly, fly, fly, fly

It is only to the degree that I am faithful to God that I will be able to touch others and lead them to Him.

Lord make me an instrument of YOUR peace

"If men really wanted peace they would sincerely ask God for it and He would give it to them.

But why should He give the world a peace which it does not really want? The peace the world pretends to desire is really no peace at all.

To some men peace merely means the liberty to exploit other people without fear of retaliation or interference.

To others peace means the freedom to rob others without interruption.

To still others it means the leisure to devour the goods of the earth without being compelled to interrupt their pleasures to feed those whom their greed is starving.

And to practically everybody else peace simply means the absence of any physical violence that might cast a shadow over lives devoted to the satisfaction of their animal appetites for comfort and pleasure."

~ Thomas Merton

Faithful One,

so unchanging

Ageless One,

You're my Rock of Peace

Lord of all

I depend on You

I call out to You,

again and again

I call out to You,

again and again

You are my Rock

in times of trouble

You lift me up

when I fall down

All through the storm

Your love is, the anchor

My hope is in

You alone.

One and one make one

I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I had
To find you I'd suffer anything and be glad

I'd pay any price just to get you
I'd work all my life and I will
To win you I'd stand naked, stoned and stabbed

I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
The best I ever had

I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I got
To catch you I'm gonna run and never stop

I'd pay any price just to win you
Surrender my good life for bad
To find you I'm gonna drown an unsung man

I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
The best I ever had

I sit looking 'round
I look at my face in the the mirror
I know I'm worth nothing without you
In life one and one don't make two
One and one make one
And I'm looking for that free ride to me
I'm looking for you

I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I got
To catch you I'm gonna run and never stop

I'd pay any price just to win you
Surrender my good life for bad
To find you I'm gonna drown an unsung man

I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
The best I ever had

I will have nothing to do with a God who cares only occasionally. I need a God who is with us always, everywhere, in the deepest depths as well as the highest heights. It is when things go wrong, when good things do not happen, when our prayers seem to have been lost, that God is most present. We do not need the sheltering wings when things go smoothly. We are closest to God in the darkness, stumbling along blindly.

"The greatest honor we can give Almighty God is to live gladly because of the knowledge of his love."

~ Julian of Norwich

As truly as God is our Father,
so just as truly is he our Mother.

In our Father, God Almighty, we have our being;
in our merciful Mother we are remade and restored.
Our fragmented lives are knit together.
And by giving and yielding ourselves, through grace,
to the Holy Spirit, we are made whole.

It is I, the strength and goodness of Fatherhood.
It is I, the wisdom of Motherhood.
It is I, the light and grace of holy life.
It is I, the Trinity,
It is I, the unity.
I am the sovereign goodness in all things.
It is I who teach you to love.
It is I who teach you to desire.
It is I who am the reward of all true desiring.

All shall be well,
and all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well.

Reading about nature is fine, but if a person walks in the woods and listens carefully, he can learn more than what is in books, for they speak with the voice of God.

~ George Washington Carver

“Here we glimpse the mystery of God’s incarnation. God became human not only to act among us but also to be the recipient of our responses.”

~ Henri JM Nouwen

If God has singled you out to be a special object of His grace you
may expect Him to honor you with stricter discipline and greater
suffering than less favored ones are called upon to endure....

If God sets out to make you an unusual Christian He is not likely
to be as gentle as He is usually pictured by the popular teachers.
A sculptor does not use a manicure set to reduce the rude,
unshapely marble to a thing of beauty. The saw, the hammer and the
chisel are cruel tools, but without them the rough stone must
remain forever formless and unbeautiful.

~ AW Tozer

"When your eating, drinking, working, playing, speaking, or writing is no longer for the glory of God, you should stop it immediately, because when you no longer live for the glory of God, you begin to live for your own glory. Then you separate yourself from God and do yourself harm. Your main question should always be whether something is lived with or without God."

Henri Nouwen, The Inner Voice of Love

Follow Me

It's by far the hardest thing I've ever done
To be so in love with you and so alone

Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way and all around
Take my hand and say you'll follow me

It's long been on my mind
You know it's been a long, long time
I've tried to find the way that I can make you understand
The way I feel about you and just how much I need you
To be there where I can talk to you
When there's no one else around

Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way and all around
Take my hand and say you'll follow me

You see I'd like to share my life with you
And show you things I've seen
Places that I'm going to places where I've been
To have you there beside me and never be alone
And all the time that you're with me
We will be at home

Follow me where I go what I do and who I know
Make it part of you to be a part of me
Follow me up and down all the way and all around
Take my hand and say you'll follow me
