Heaven to Hold

I never thought you were a safe bet.
It wouldn't to be easy winning you. 
Winner takes all and that's worth the dues.
At the end of the game I just might fold. 
But you were always heaven to hold.
Yes you were slippery when wet. 
Still I could never forget.
You were always heaven to hold.
And if I could have your love.
I would risk everything to win everything.
To me it seemed worth the risk. 
Because if you loved me at the end of the day.
Nothing ever could get in our way. 
I might have to wait till I'm too old.
Or it may not happen at all.
I'll go ahead and make the call.
I'll wager my heart full of love
And ask for your heart of gold
It won't matter the outcome for I've already won.
Because you were always heaven to hold.

The Road Ahead

Driving down the road looking back 
Hoping somehow I'll get on the right track.
I know the future is straight ahead.
Why do I look back instead?
I've got to have faith. 
I've got to believe
That the God who got me this far
Isn't going to leave.
Instead of thinking about what I lack
I need to think about what I might receive.
Just around the corner a miracle
Could very well await.
I'll never know exactly my fate,
If I keep looking back on my way.
I won't see the future until it's my yesterday. 
I've got to have faith.
I've got to believe
That the God who brought me this far
Isn't going to leave.
Instead of thinking about what I lack
I need to get ready for what I'm about to receive.
I will stop focusing on mistakes I've made 
And start seeing the chances I could take. 
I will live in the moment and learn while I do
And look forward to the future as it comes into view.
I'm going to have faith.
I'm going to believe
That the God who got me this far isn't going to leave.
I won't be thinking about what I lack
I'll be getting prepared for all that I'm sure to receive.

Love Quote

Love is two souls intertwined in such a way you cannot find their meeting place,  nor can you tear it apart. It is one embodiment of pure pleasure and pain, joy and sorrow.

I'm getting excited about leaving. I think this quote is pretty.

Help For This Day

Expect God in all His varied forms. He is a master of disguise, a guiding star in the night, a lily left growing in the valley, or an answered prayer sent on the breath of an angel. God can use anyone as a channel of nourishment. Regardless of the channel, He is still the source.

How Did You Find Me?

I hear that song again on the radio. I think I know you. I think you know me.
Your voice is calling just to me. Singing that same old heart tugging melody.
How did you find me here? How do you know that and how can you see?
Into my soul you seem to go so easily. How do you know that about me?
I'm on a plane flying through the air. I'm resting my eyes and I hear that song again.
Just when I started to think it was all a dream someone next to me starts to sing.
Then I knew it was you singing that heart tugging melody. Where have you been?
Through the years I keep hearing you singing to me. Sweet words from an old friend.
I think I know you. Maybe it was a long time ago while I was walking in my sleep.
I went out wandering and walking the streets. I had tears in my eyes when you found me.
You carried me home. The rest of the night you stayed with me just singing quietly.
When I think very hard it doesn't make any sense. I think I know you. How could it be?
You're just a voice on the radio singing your song. I'm just a heart that you've touched.
With your music to give as a gift to the world, you could save a life with that heart tug.
You sing to the crowd or to yourself never thinking it means that much.
But it means the world to me. To think that someone else somewhere has felt as such.
How did you find me here? I thought I was hiding. How did you hear me here?
With my crying and hoping against hope, I want to stop trying. Then your voice rings clear.
And hope shines through my tears. I know that I got to get up and walk through my fears.
I have the faith of knowing that God will send the music to soothe and dry my tears.

Important Things to Remember

It's not the honors and the prizes and the fancy outsides of life that ultimately nourish our souls. It's the knowing that we can be trusted, that we never have to fear the truth, that the bedrock of our very being is firm.
****************************************************************************

All our lives, we rework the things from our childhood, like feeling good about ourselves, managing our angry feelings, being able to say good-bye to people we love.
