You bought my life with the blood

That you shed on the cross

When you died for the sins of men

And you let out a cry, crucified

Now alive in me

*

These hands are yours

Teach them to serve

As you please and I'll reach out

Desperate to see all the greatness of God

May my soul rest assured in you

*

I'll never be the same

No I'll never be the same

*

Cause I know that you're alive

You came to fix my broken life

And I'll sing to glorify

Your Holy name, Jesus Christ

*

You've changed it all

You broke down the wall

When I spoke and confessed

In you I am blessed

Now I walk in the light

In victorious sight of you

*

Cause I know that you're alive
You came to fix my broken life
And I'll sing to glorify
Your Holy name, Jesus Christ

Loser~Loser

A sore one I am not.
I was busy sleeping on my cot.
Even though I was beat to the punch.
I did not know there was such a crunch.
The pressure was off because of a dream.
I thought I had it down like a scheme.
But that was just a wish that I will not see.
While the winners jump up and down with glee.
So it was just a small prize but a prize none the less.
I like to win and so I guess.
I will just wait 100 more though it may be a chore.
I think some others will be keeping score.
Or perhaps a better usage of my time shall become the habit.
Or I need to practice so my fingers are more like a jackrabbit.
All I know is I sit here in pain. Over the loss or maybe over being so so very vain.
Even though losing does not make me so sad.
It is the win that makes me glad.
So to the winners I smile and nod.
Enjoy your spoils!
And I stand and cheer for it is fun to rant and rave and gloat and jeer.
But this time you win and that is ok.
Next time your luck may just go astray.

Absolute.......

…Truth.

What would happen if you told the absolute truth?
ALL THE TIME???!?!?I was thinking about this today when I saw a number come on to my phone and I did not want to answer it. And I didn’t. You know what I am talking about. You see the number or the email or hear the voicemail or see them walking down the hall and your eyes rolls and you make that total disgust sigh. And if it is visual.. you pray that they did not see you and duck down the nearest hall/cube or turn the other direction.

What would happen if you told them the absolute truth?

“I really don’t have the time or the energy to talk to you right now.
I know you want to be my friend. But I can’t stand you.
I don’t want to hear about your trip anymore.
I gave you my advice now use it or don’t speak about the subject.
No, I don’t want to go out with you, your moral compass is broke.
That dress does make you look fat.- OUCH.
That hair style does make you look old- Double ouch.
NO-He REALLY is not going to call. Yes- You really were to easy.”
Oh I could go on. AND so could you.

BUT would we be less liked? More stressed?

Or can we handle absolute truth?

Can we take it from a friend?

Can I take it? That is more the question. Can I take absolute truth? Could I hear from a friend or trusted loved one the absolute truth?


And becareful to not mistake "Absolute Truth" with... "The truth IN LOVE" because I think there is a difference. Don't you?
