Dear Dallas...
Im realizing this is going to be harder than I thought.
Leaving you is not going to be easy.
We've gotten so close and you've crept in
You've wrapped yourself around my heart.
Here all this time I claimed no home.
And here you are exposing these roots.
Here I am wondering what to do...
Leaving you is not going to be easy.
We've gotten so close and you've crept in
You've wrapped yourself around my heart.
Here all this time I claimed no home.
And here you are exposing these roots.
Here I am wondering what to do...

In the atmosphere...
In this atmosphere You are found
Bigger than all circumstance
High above all fear and regret
High enough these chains are broken
In the clouds of Your sweet assurance
In this atmosphere You are found
Noone else matters
High above their opinions are lost and fade away
All I hear is your sweet refrain...
"Be still," my dear
In this atmosphere You are found
High above - all I hear is You
Though the storms and rain fall below
High above I have no fear
Though I must go
It's in this atmosphere that I find my strength
To take my cross with confident hope...
That you aren't just in this atmosphere
You are a fire in my bones
...So I will just leave this doubt up here...
Bigger than all circumstance
High above all fear and regret
High enough these chains are broken
In the clouds of Your sweet assurance

"Be still," my dear
In this atmosphere You are found
High above - all I hear is You
Though the storms and rain fall below
High above I have no fear
Though I must go
It's in this atmosphere that I find my strength
To take my cross with confident hope...
That you aren't just in this atmosphere
You are a fire in my bones
...So I will just leave this doubt up here...

An Excellent Sunday
A new favorite: Vegetarian Migas and talks of starting a wine/cheese/bookstore with friends. Excellent sunday afternoon, indeed.
Superwoman
Was talking to a friend a few days ago. We were talking about our dissatifaction with the nation's current political state and he made the comment that he just wished that he could be Superman and fix all the problems of the world. I nervously laughed it off (and Im sure was like...uhhh...ok...weirdo...) But then it hit me....HOLy STInK...I don't just wanna be Superwoman I flippin am there...unitard and all.
Is this a theme in my life or what...Superwoman...here she is people (rather arrogant little b**** if you ask me):
Family strife - I'll fix it
Work issues - I'll fix it
Friend's relationship issues - I'll fix it
My relationship issues - I'll fix it
Church issues - I'll fix it...(oh and give you my opinion too)
Mending broken hearts - I'll fix it
Healing my broken heart - I'll fix it (then after unsuccessfully doing so...ignore it)
My student's behavior - I'll fix it
My student's family issues - I'll fix it
Amazing how much easier life is when we can just hand over this need to fix everything...it's a huge weight that we don't have to carry. Our heavenly father does...and He is just so much cooler than Superwoman could ever be!!
"Entanglements. Distractions will come and especially as My focus with you intensifies.
Have you noticed how many times when you are on the verge or cusp of a breakthrough or at the beginning of something important I have assigned, a distraction suddenly occurs?
If you choose to cooperate withthese distractions, entanglements result to interrupt or even thwart My direction for you.
Right now you are in the middle of such a distraction.
You have believed a lie that everything depends upon you.
You must take charge and you must get totally involved or else things will unravel andfall apart. I say unto you, examine your priorities.
Recall My directions.
Study the prophetic words you have received.
Get back on track.
Re-focus.
Entanglements."
