Just Me and Nothing More
This blog is about me, the good, the bad, the ugly. Its where I post about life, love, struggles, friends and things God is doing. I'm finding out what being me is all about. I'm finding out what it is I wanna do. I'm finding out just where all my passions Lie. It's falling into place now one piece at a time. I'm finding out who I am, what I love, where I belong. It's all about me being Just Me and Nothing More.

Not Just Another Sunday
I woke up right on time. Got up and showered then had bargain brand cheerios because lets face it... I'm broke. It is just another Sunday I told myself. Sat through Sunday school attentively and prayed sincerely as we shared needs amongst our group. As we talked about upcoming events and goings on at church I contributed where I could and then it was time to worship. Focus I told myself. You need to focus in on the word and what God is saying. Oh was I ever right. As Pastor Gary told us of some of his college adventures he spoke of finding a place to rest and restore and find encouragement. He spoke of a place where you're not alone, where people love you and care about you and after a worship set that had brought tears to my eyes I thought to myself... this place, this church, these people, this is where I find peace and hope and rest and where I come to seek refuge. This is what he is talking about. His words struck my heart as he talked about a heart of expectation and I thought about the true meaning of worship. There is nothing better than coming before God and entering his presence. And as if to solidify my thoughts and to bring joy and a smile much needed there, in the entry way at church sat care packages and one had my name on it. The ladies of our church took an evening to pack boxes full of treats and love for all the young adults in our church. This is what church is guys. A group of people loving, challenging, supporting, and guiding each other. A family of people who love God and love each other and love their neighbors ad themselves. There is no place I would rather be.

Stormy Nights
Days months and years go buy
You never once cross my mind
Then all of a sudden
Out of the blue
A fire work goes off
Thunder cracks across the night sky
And there I am
A little girl In the middle of a never ending storm
Feeling the pain of many moons ago
Hearing your words echo once again
The smell of your aftershave
It takes every ounce of strength I have
To say no
This is today
I am safe now
I am home now
You're gone.
Dead and gone
Memories fade in the distant past

Song Lyrics at 2am
They hold me together.
A prayer lifted high holds me a lil tighter
Just you and me God in this lil place.
Just you and me God
Lord fill this empty place
Dark and twisted paths
Leading through the night
Its undeniable
I'm lost with no sign of light
If only you were here
You'd know just where to go
Lead me to find safety where you are
Hope faith and love
They hold me together
A prayer lifted high holds me a lil tighter
Just you and me God in this great big place
Just you and me God
Lord fill this empty space
Running the the woods
Stumbling cross the roots
yearning for break of day, still hours away.
Falling on my knees looking up I cry out.
Where are you God of mine, please come and show the way.
Hope faith and love.
They hold me together.
A prayer lifted high holds me a lil tighter.
Just you and me God in this big ol world
Just you and me God Lord fill this broken girl
I'm running in circles.
Looking for you're face.
Stumbling through this darkness feeling out of place.
This isn't where I belong God.
This I know for sure.
Meet me here dear father.
Come to your little girl.
Its then I hear these words said, in that still small, quiet voice.
I'm right there with you daughter, can't you hear my voice.
Look around you and you'll see.
I never left your side.
I've been right there with you child.
I'll always be your guide.
Hope faith and love.
They hold me together.
A prayer lifted high holds me a lil tighter.
Just you and me God Just you and me God
Just you and me
