Live from The Wire. Hope you love it!
Junior
Former NFL player Junior Seau was found dead today after an apparent suicide. Depression is heavy, share the burden. Friends: be present, serve each other, and love.
Things
You’re not entitled to them; you’re privileged with them.
Oceans Have No Favorites
1 Well, I’m afraid, God. I’m not totally sure where the next step is
Or even if said step is gonna take me any closer to heaven
What if the worst happens? And I walk West until I hit the Pacific
And I wash away in the ocean along with all of my habits
5 Good or bad, it’s no matter, oceans don’t play favorites
I just want to be able to know I’m doing your will with confidence
The worst part isn’t the drowning so much as it’s that you got what you wanted
Please don’t retract the calling, the writing, the screaming that I thought was sacred
9 I’ll try to give so much every night that my blood and sweat stains the floors
I promise I’ll do everything to make sure nobody remembers my name before yours
Happy Easter
To be separated from God is to be a son with no father
It’s like being an ocean bed with no blankets of water
There is one that took our place, His view of God’s face was severed
He became the drought so that we could drink from His side forever
Pushing It
The beauty of Christ isn’t simply that He died for your sins. He also conquered death through resurrection. Therefore, not only are your sins atoned for, but death has NO sting. If you’re not the church-going type, please consider going to church today. You may hear something that makes sense.
Gravity
When your world is turned upside-down, thank God for gravity.
We Are All Wrong
Found this today. Just some thoughts from a couple of months ago.
1 When something gets some attention
I’ve gotta find the flaws in it
Cause 6 million souls in just two days
Have seen apparent damage that moves them to work for heart change
5 It’s not to say that it was perfect
Or that I’ve pledged an allegiance
But the fact that I can’t escape
Whether wrong or not, our opinions are always God-ordained
9 I could set one off with just one word
A brother is set to draw his sword
But it looks like we all believe
God’s word ain’t verses, instead it’s one man versus everything
Happiness Is
Can I come home
Home so I can watch my kids grow
Implications
Paint me so I look like a drunk
I am done
I am done
Ain’t marriage great when there’s one in a cage
‘81, oh my, how you’ve changed
Litigation is required
I have to protect my funds
So I’m checked out
And made my own checking account
But you have to file
Cause I won’t file
I heard from God that I’m right and you’re not
That’s right, you were wrong this time
