PTL!

PTL for moderate motivation and good productivity!
: )



p.s. I agree . . . 23 days doesn't sound as long as six weeks!

p.p.s I don't know why the picture of a piano. I just liked it. Sweet memories of plunking away at Grandma's house. and wishing I had more time for photography right now. Hmph.

Say what?

Guess what??!



. . . 38 days left . . .

. . . 28 days of school . . .

. . . only 24 days of classes . . .

Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere
Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare

This is where the rubber meets the road
This is where the cream is gonna rise
This is what you really didn't know
This is where the truth don't lie

{Chorus}
You find out who your friends are
Somebody's gonna drop everything
Run out and crank up their car
Hit the gas, get there fast
Never stop to think 'what's in it for me?' or 'it's way too far'
They just show on up with their big old heart
You find out who your friends are
Everybody wants to slap your back
wants to shake your handwhen you're up on top of that mountain
But let one of those rocks give way then you slide back down look up
and see who's around then

This ain't where the road comes to an end
This ain't where the bandwagon stops
This is just one of those times when
A lot of folks jump off

{Chorus}

When the water's high
When the weather's not so fair
When the well runs dry
Who's gonna be there?

{Chorus}

You find out who your friends are
(yeah, yeah)
You find out who your friends are
Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch way out in the middle of nowhere
(Well man, I've been there)
Or get yourself in a bind lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor, need a couch, need a bus fare
(Man, I've been there)

Man, I've been there
Oooh yeah.


Find Out Who Your Friends Are, Tracy Lawrence


This song seemed entirely appropriate and applicable in my life right now. During the last month and a half several friends continue to check in and reach out, even though they could have just returned to their normal routines. Thank you!

I Can Trust

Yes, I know that You have paved a path for me
Yes, I know that You see what I do and don't need
But when it comes to the deepest things
I have a hard time relinquishing control, letting go

God it hurts to give You what I must lay down
But when I let go freedom's found
God it hurts to give You what I've held so dear
Because of Your love it's clear

I can trust You with this
I can trust You with me
I can trust You

Lord I know that You are worthy of my trust
And You have shown me time and time again
You're faithful and yet
I'm so scared of letting go of this
Afraid of what You might do with it
How could I forget who you are like this?

Me forsaking, heart is breaking
I let go of what I've held so tight
Freedom's mine now, for the taking
I move in faith, and not by sight
Let Your will be done


~ Rebecca St. James
