9:32 PM, on the computer

Today was another blessed day, I woke up in a good mood, and spent the rest of the day that way. I suffered my fair share of persecution and insult today, which pleases me fine. It just means I'm doing something right, praise the Lord.

I was reading the sixth book in the Left Behind series, Assassins, and listening to a CD. I came across a song that really spoke to me, and I think I'll share the lyrics with you all:

Every New Day, from the Five Iron Frenzy album "Our Newest Album Ever" (and on their live CD as well)

When I was young, the smallest trick of light, Could catch my eye,
Then life was new and every new day, I thought that I could fly.
I believed in what I hoped for, And I hoped for things unseen, I had wings and dreams could soar, I just don't feel like flying anymore.
When the stars threw down their spears, Watered Heaven with their tears, Before words were spoken, Before eternity.

Dear Father, I need you, Your strength my heart to mend. I want to fly higher, Every new day again.

When I was small, the furthest I could reach, reach, was not so high,
then, I thought the world was so much smaller, feeling I, could fly.
Through distant deeps and skies, behind infinity, below the face of Heaven, he stoops to create me.

Man versus himself. Man versus machine.
Man versus the world. mankind versus me.
The struggles go on, the wisdom I lack, the burdens keep piling up on my back.
So hard to breathe, to take the next step.
The mountains is high, I wait in the depths.
Yearning for grace, and hoping for peace.

Dear God... increase.

Healing hands of God have mercy on our unclean souls once again.
Jesus Christ, light of the world burning bright within our hearts forever.
Freedom means love without condition, a beginning or an end.
Here’s my heart, let it be forever Your’s, only you can make every new day seem so new.

Or course, the song sounds so much better with music, it's quite emotional.

Something I was thinking about today, is how America's become these days... I think I'd better save this rant for another day, it may spoil my mood.

Aaaaanywho... I think I might mess with my page a little, I guess... I dunno... well it sounds like a good idea.

I just deleted about 4 megs of stuff from my site... I never knew I had so many Lara Croft pics... man, I used to be a real perv! Thank the Maker for delivering me from what I used to be, I'm afraid to think of what I'd be today if He hadn't!

I think I'm signing off for the night, I'm getting a small headache and I'd better sleep it off. G'night all and God bless!
