Ace

I surprised at how much I like the Ace Troubleshooter cd I got. It has meaningful lyrics and a great sound. The only reason I can think of for their lack of popularity is that they must not have gone on any long tours and they didn't have a famous label. However, they were very talented and no matter how much I'm glad that John Warne joined Relient K, I wish the band was stil in existence.

A Bug

I took some pictures of a weird bug on our glass door.

Graduation

I went to James' graduation party last Sunday and it was awesome to see some old friends again. Some couldn't make it, so I was sad, but it was wonderful to see all that did come. I had an awesome time; just wish I could've stayed longer cause' it looks like the majority of the fun was after I left!!!

Perfection

Can we, as humans, be perfect? It's a thought to think about. The bible says that All have sinned and come short of God's glory, so we know we will never achieve this, neither will anyone in the future. However, Jesus, fully God and fully man, did it perfectly. Tempted in ever way but yet did not fall to a sinful nature like we do. He did not have Adam's curse because He was fully God, but was born of a woman's seed and maintained physical punity to be fully man. What an example. We must strive for perfection even though it is impossible. Not because we think we can do it, in fact we can not even keep from falling for one hour at a time, but because we want to please God and live for His glory because we love Him, not just for love, but because He loved us first!!! And there is no better reason because in spite our imperfection He loved us as His creations. He loved us.

The Road

By Micah Lang

It was a time that I looked down on all the unsaved lost
I felt that as a Christian I was better for the cross

I stayed away from those who sinned except when I’d reprove
I’d always stay in the same place, while tell others to move

I have to say that I was always such a hypocrite
I never spoke to men in love, not once a little bit

After all, it was I who knew the wrong from right
I puffed myself up with my pride and looked good in my sight

But it was once that I was walking down an old, dirt road
And like Paul, a bright light threw me down cause’ of a great load

I looked up in fear to the glory of my Lord and King
I thought that I’d feel glad, but I couldn’t feel a thing

His eyes were filled with tears and I didn’t know why
I asked Him ‘why’ and He just looked at me as if He’d die

He shook His head with sadness I had seen right from the start
I started to cry when He told me, “You’re breaking my heart.”

“How could you,” He said, “never know the fullness of my grace?
Can’t you see it in my eyes, my hands, my feet, my face?”

I replied that I had known this and I was faithful
How could He ever even think that I was not grateful?

He told me that if I knew His love was so very real
Then I’d treat others with that love because of how I feel

I dropped my head as tears filled my eyes consumed by my grief
I saw that what I was, was nothing but a lieing thief

I looked up to His eyes, those eyes so filled with worry
My eyes filled up with tears and I said to him, “I’m sorry.”

Within a moment, I was alone and the light was gone
I climbed up from knees for I was no more undone

I smiled to my new changed self, I knew the love of Him
I would now show the light and love that Satan could not dim

Jesus’ love inside was like a cup that holds the sea
Cause Jesus loved the least of these, yes, loved even me

Ignorance

How can Ignorance be bliss? If you are ignorant of things around you, then you are not knowledgable of them, and then you decide that they aren't even real, or exist. Sometimes people claim ignorance of things they can't understand; some more important than others. Such as, if we dismiss things that have no importance then we losing nothing of importance, but if we dismiss God just because we don't understand Him and cling to ignorance, then in the end we will not experience bliss. Just the opposite, except we won't understand why. We will not know why we suffer, but it was because we chose not to. Such a fate. How can Ignorance be bliss?
