I thank God that it happened quick

I thank God that you didn't suffer

I thank God for every moment that we shared

I thank God for every dance I had with you

Til we meet again

I love you!

Fuzzy about Fringes

Fringes, layers, short, long, curls, straight...

This is my most recent dilemma. I need a haircut before I go on camp and I have a hair appointment pending at 2 this afternoon. Looking through old pics I decided that I really need to get back to the fringe, I mean it really softens my face and makes me look pretty ... or does it?

Is it the fringe that makes me look good in photo's? Or is it the fact that I was really happy in all the pics that I look good in? What is it that makes a person beautiful in a picture? I mean we don't takes pictures of someone with a headache or someone on their death-bed. Isn't it a bit strange to anybody else? We don't have our picture taken when we just woke-up with a messy hairdo or after we just done a 10km run, wouldn't that be more real, more you? How good is my fringe going to make me look then?

Sorry, that was just my little rant for the day!

Any thoughts?

"holiday" shopping

Oh Happy Days!!!
I can't say that I'm a BIG fan of shopping but there is Magical when it is in the preparation of the year ahead. I found this funky little camping pillow that rolls-up just like a sleeping bag(It's for the gazillion camps I'm going on with Metaministry). Then there is the ever-handy flip-flops and lets not forget that you can't really take that pretty little clutch, not even your decent sized corporate purse is going to do the job. You need something that is going hold your snacks for the road, your camera and some other can't-live-without-goodies. So YES, you thought right, I just HAD to get a new bag. I also got Coco some lovely doggy treats to chew-on and keep busy while I'm gone.
Well, my feet are a bit sore and Coco is begging me to go to bed so that she does not have to nap alone in my dark room, so let me say...


Good Night!

My Contribute!!!

This is my contribute to Mari's blog!!!

Here I am, Lord, and I'm drowning in your sea of forgetfulness

The chains of yesterday surround me

I yearn for peace and rest

I don't want to end where You found me

And it echoes in my mind, keeps me awake tonight

I know You've cast my sin as far as the east is from the west

And I stand before You now as though I've never sinned

But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

Jesus can you show me just how far the east is from the west

Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been come rising up in m again

In the arms of Your mercy I find rest

Cause you know just how far the east is from the west

From one scarred hand to the other

I start the day, the war begins, endless reminding of my sin

Time and time again Your truth is drowned out by the storm I'm in

Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from You leaving me this way

I know you've washed me white, turned my darkness into light

I need Your peace to get me through this night

I can'tlive by what I feel, but by the truth Your word reveals

I'm not holding on to You, but You're holding on to me

You're holding on to me

Jesus , You know just how far the east is from the west

I don't have to see the man I've been come rising up in me again

In the arms of Your mercy I find rest

Cause You know just how far the east is from the west

From one scarred hand to the other

One scarred hand to the other

From one scarred hand to the other
