And so my prayer is that your story will have involved some leaving and some coming home, some summer and some winter, some roses blooming out like children in a play. My hope is your story will be about changing, about getting something beautiful born inside of you about learning to love a man, about learning to love a child, about moving yourself around water, around mountains, around friends, about learning to love others more than we love ourselves, about learning oneness as a way of understanding God. We get one story, you and I, and one story alone. God has established the elements, the setting and the climax and the resolution. It would be a crime not to venture out, wouldn’t it?

Oh the lord, our strength and song, highest praise to him belongs
Christ the lord, the conquering king, your name we raise, your triumphs sing

Praise the lord, our mighty warrior
Praise the lord, the glorious one
By his hand we stand in victory,
By his name we overcome

Though the storms of hell pursue, in darkest night we worship you
You divide the raging sea, from death to life you safely lead

Praise the lord, our mighty warrior
Praise the lord, the glorious one
By his hand we stand in victory,
By his name we overcome

All the saints and angels bow, hosts of heaven crying out
Glory glory to the king, you reign for all eternity

Praise the lord, our mighty warrior
Praise the lord, the glorious one
By his hand we stand in victory,
By his name we overcome

Praise the lord, our mighty warrior
Praise the lord, the glorious one
By his hand we stand in victory,
By his name we overcome

The lord shall reign forever and ever
The lord shall reign forever and ever

Praise the lord, our mighty warrior
Praise the lord, the glorious one
By his hand we stand in victory,
By his name we overcome

We live in a society that is more concerned with how they appear than who they actually are.

The new Bethel album, The Loft Sessions, (and the new Kari Jobe one) has made my week 2435x better. 

It’s finally here! 

The dissatisfaction, coupled with a longing for peace and truth, can set us on a pilgrim path of wholeness in God. A person has to be thoroughly disgusted with the way things are to find the motivation to set out on the Christian way.
Eugene Peterson, A Long Obedience in the Same Direction
