Curious enough, but I have a new favorite song.
Which I find kind of weird because I haven't had a new favorite song since... well, a very long time.
The song makes me want to cry and sing and dance all at once. Because I really think that God is in it. It's not a heartbreaking song, nor is it extremely slow.
It's Me. It's God.
The song goes like this:

Seeing through a hole in time
looking at this world of mine
all the words we've had to say
all the dreams to light the way
it's been fine though we've been apart
but it's only just begun
far away from home
but baby I'm not alone

Lift me up
turn me around
got to get my feet off the ground

Lift me up
turn me around
sunrises in black and blue
sunsets say I love you
You said I had strength to stand my ground
said I had wings to fly
far away from home
but baby I'm not alone
and everyday away hurts a little more
But every day away is easy to ignore.


The song is "Lift Me Up" by Benjamin Gate. For me, it just brings so much promise. God is here, he's going to light the way. I'm not alone. My life is falling down, the sunrise is bruised, but you gave me wings to fly. I'm not alone. He'll lift you up, He'll turn you around. He'll pick your feet up off the ground so you won't trip on a rock. It says in Psalm 63:3:

"Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you."

That is no coincidence. He loves us, and his love is limitless. Just like LovelyLeah said: "take the deepest part of the ocean, multiply it by infinity, and God is still beyond that."
His love is limitless. God will never leave you nor forsake you. He is always there. He is everything we need.

I recently wrote my THIS I BELIEVE essay for school. I wrote about my mother dying and how I felt so lost, and so unloved, but God's love saved me.
When people in other countries are starving, murderers run around, war wages, it feels that there is no love. But it's because we're looking in the wrong places. God is in plain sight, yet we look in the bushes.
Enough said.

Trip, Ace & Demo,

P.S. Listen to Life Me Up. You'll see what I mean. Oh, and Astro Boy (which I finally see tonight!)

Wow, I haven't heard that song in so long! And Sydney, if you wouldn't mind I'd love to read your This I Believe. I've written two for different classes, and I love listening to how other people's personal testimonies that lead them to their believes. They're always so unique to every individual.
