the next steps

just got back from camp and i really was feeling like listening to "rest for the weary" by cool hand luke... it drips emotion... so good, so good.

Hey, it’s me
I’m sorry it’s so late
I can’t sleep
I knew You’d be awake (Psalm 121:4)
You’re always home
Waiting by the phone
For nights like these
When I’m feeling all alone

I wish it didn’t always
Have to be this way
I wish that I could talk to You
Face to face
But nothing compares to the way
You always listen and know just what to say

Hold my hand
I can’t stand alone
Here I am
Waiting for You to take me home

Oh, I just want to sing
I only wish there was a word
For what You mean to me
I would only say it once
In hushed tones
So it would not grow old
But all I have
Is “I love You”

You’re my Jesus, You’re my hero
Everything I wish that I could be

You’re the one who comforts me
When everyone is gone away
I can’t stand alone
Here I am
Waiting for You to take me home

And I will keep on singing
Because You hear me
And I will keep on smiling
Because You’re near me

I’ll sleep well on a promise tonight.


i'm full of ideas for what comes next for teen world... and me. it was a week of frustration, but a good week. birth pains? my "once alienated" boys. the calls about quizzing - God, help the excitement last! "shallowness persists, i must resist." i want to study prayer in the pauline epistles - i want to help kids go deeper! too many rules? lol - i read galatians today!(law and Spirit - freedom) HAHA - this blog entry is like my brain right now... so much going on, little bits and pieces, scattered... collecting 'em and ordering 'em will be sooooooo important.
