Mmm.

What can I say?
You've stolen my heart.
I had this realization
sometime near the start.
When you fell,
I fell for you.
Of this realization,
you have no clue.
Our progression may be slow,
but I know that God has plans.
I try to follow His path,
but sometimes give in to my heart's demands.
When I hear your voice,
I go weak in the knees.
I can't form clear sentences,
or even say please.
When I see you smile,
it's like the fourth of July.
To others I'm outgoing,
but around you I'm much too shy.
My sentences become clipped,
my tongue becomes tied.
These feelings inside of me?
No longer can be denied.

Senioritis... what?

At the beginning of the year I had senioritis. I pined for college, camp, and friends in general. After a few weeks of drawn out school days of wishing the time away and late nights mentally decorating my dorm room, I came to a realization. Something that I thought was so normal was getting in the way of me following God. Not only was I wish away precious time that I could be spending in the word, but I was wishing away time that I could be spending talking to the kids at my school about Jesus. I've heard from many speakers that they look back on high school and wish they would have reached out more to those around them. While praying for my classes this year, I had felt God calling me to get out of my comfort zone, and while at first it was... uncomfortable not being in choir with the people I had grown to call my friends, it was alright. I've grown to love it. To love who God is shaping me to be. I know that everyone expects you to have senioritis, but once I started actually pursuing opportunities God gives me throughout the day to talk about Jesus, church, or anything God related or even to just show kids God's love. It's been amazing seeing what God is doing in my school this semester. Instead of saying "Oh man, I have another semester left in this dump?" I think "Yes, God has given me another semester to love on those around me" and that is what I intend to do. So while many seniors will be wishing their time away, I will be eagerly awaiting the start of each day and what God has instore for it. Praise the Lord.

When I close my eyes I can almost see it
in all it's unabashed glory
those pearly gates, those golden streets
no worries, darkness we did defeat
just awstruck wonder at your beauty.

Letters from a sinner

When I know I've let you down
all the lies I've told are falling all around
these stick webs of falsities catching me
telling me what I've become
to your words I am numb
I've blocked out your voice
with the world's overbearing noise
of your words not taking heed
instead all the sins I've over seen
these are letters from a sinner
with the knowledge that in life, I'll never be a winner
without your aid.
Lord, I'm afraid.

The Game of a Lifetime

A whisper in the wind
a flashback of all the times I've sinned
letting you down
on your head is the crown
that reminds me of your glory.
You're totally and completely holy.
Oh how I love thee.
I truly want to make you happy.
To make you smile at me,
to wash over me completely.
To show me that life is more than a board game.
More than someone screaming my name.
calling out the plays,
people pulling me every which way.
Help me Lord, I plee.
you come to me, so willingly.
My heart you own.
And somehow, I know that I am not alone.

Memories

Sometimes I wonder if it was all in my head
all those things felt and said
Those memories that I hold so close
are just memories to you at the most.
