The Kinds of Things that are Running Through My Mind:

I SAW WHAT I SAW
SARA GROVES

I saw what I saw and I can't forget it 
I heard what I heard and I can't go back 
I know what I know and I can't deny it 

Something on the road, cut me to the soul 
Your pain has changed me 
your dream inspires 
your face a memory 
your hope a fire 
your courage asks me what I'm afraid of 
(what I am made of) 
and what I know of love 
we've done what we've done and we can't erase it 
we are what we are and it's more than enough 
we have what we have but it's no substitution 
Something on the road, touched my very soul 
I say what I say with no hesitation 
I have what I have and I'm giving it up 
I do what I do with deep conviction 
Something on the road, changed my world


THE KINDS OF THINGS THAT ARE RUNNING THROUGH MY MIND:

Podcast sermons
The One Year Bible
Living Overseas for a short time
Graduate School again
Selling my shoes on Ebay
Getting Married
Adopting Kids
The sins of our world
Studying Christmas Carols and Hymns - when was the last time I thought about the significance within the words?
The dramatic obedience of Mary and the virtue of Joseph as they gave life to their son, Jesus.
The Church should be a community of believers that rises to the challenge of supporting each other. And I have seen it in my life.

Pilgrimage 2009 - it's beginning with a whole lotta ideas about what God and I could do. And the world is His oyster, so I am going to pray for this ocean-side journey and pray that I can be obedient enough for this day.
