I wonder how it must have felt
When David stood to face Goliath on a hill
I imagine that he shook with all his might
Until You took his hand, and held on tight

'Cause You were there, You were there
In the midst of danger's snare
You were there, You were there always
You were there when the hardest fight
Seemed so out of reach
Oh, You were there, You were always there
You were always there

So there he stood upon that hill
Abraham with knife in hand was poised to kill
But God in all his sovereignty had bigger plans
And just in time, You brought a lamb

'Cause You were there,
You were there
In the midst of the unclear
You were there, you were there always
You were there when obedience
Seemed to not make sense
You were there, You were always there
You were always there

So haven't I learned that my ways
Aren't as high as Yours are
And You alone keep the universe
From crumbling into dust
You are God and though we would
Not have understood You
There You were

Hanging blameless on a cross
You would rather die than leave us in the dark
Every moment, every planned coincidence
Just all makes sense
With Your last breath

You were there, You were there
During history's darkest hour
You were there, You were there always
You were the Victor and the King
You were the power in David's swing
You were the calm in Abraham
You are the God who understands
You are the strength when we have none
You are the living, Holy one
You were, You are and You will always be
the Risen Lamb of God

You were, You are and You will always be
The Risen Lamb of God

I give it to you Lord, it is all yours. 

I am so restless... and I do not know why...

Have I missed something here? Been so wound up in my own life that I have completely passed up something God had for me?  Or does He have something for me that is sitting right in front of my nose and I'm just not taking the time to look?

Lord, I wanna yearn for you

I want to burn with passion

Over You, and only You

Chapel service was incredible today! The topic was how our personal desires are somtimes just misdirected at the wrong things which is why we may get frustrated when something does not work out the way we want it to.  it was kinda a "lightbulb moment" for me... not to mention I desperately needed to hear that message.

Hope things are going well for all of you back in ATL!!

This weekend was absolutely incredible!  Eating at O' Charleys (Steaktips as usual lol) and somehow ending up with 2 lemons instead of the one I was given in my tea, shopping at two of the best stores on a whim, watching a "scary" movie (Don't make me imitate the sound...), seeing our british rower race (You can actually touch the boat! jk), Chili's lunch and funny stories, "Underwater caves" lol, sunsets followed by sunrises after a chilly camping experience, Sunday with PL and the family, Frisbee out front, and most of all... spending time with you.

I love you so much my dear...

“On the Wye in May”

Now is the perfect moment of the year.

Half naked branches, half a mist of green,

Vivid and delicate the slopes appear ;

The cool, soft air is neither fierce nor keen,

And in the temperate sun we feel no fear ;

Of all the hours which shall be and have been,

It is the briefest as it is most dear,

It is the dearest as the shortest seen.

O it was best, belovéd, at the first.--

Our hands met gently, and our meeting sight

Was steady; on our senses scarce had burst

The faint, fresh fragrance of the new delight. . . .

I seek that clime, unknown, without a name,

Where first and best and last shall be the same.
