| So, right now I am just fumbling along in life. An inner battle wages over my mind. My body is weak. My soul strains for light in the darkness. Shadows linger all around me as I crash to the billowing depths of this rotting world. Where will I end up when I finish my life on this side of eternity? When will I be able to let go and let Him fight for me? I cannot go on. God will save me. He always does. Will it ever end? This war over my life? What is life? Is it more than breathing? Is there something I am supposed to be doing? How do we know that what we do in life is not wasted? Time is just an illusion. There really is no time for anything. What we do today effects tomorrow, true, but time just repeats itself. We never really escape the rotation and trap of the world. We are doomed.
But wait. Life. Where did it come from? There IS life. It is why I am here today. Where did I get it from? Did God give me my life? The Bible is clear that if we have life, it was given to us by God. Who is God? God is perfect. This world is certainly not perfect. Why is God not changing this world so that we can live in perfection and save us from this horrid place? Is He not perfect? Wouldn't He provide a way for us to escape this horrible world? Jesus Christ, God's Son. God did give us a way to escape! Why does no one seem to care? God sent His Son to earth to die an excruciating death AND pay the high price for our sins! Jesus Christ obeyed willingly because He is perfect. God is perfect! He saved us from the world WE created! WE sinned and created the imperfect world that he hate so much. He has given us a way to return to the Him, to perfection. Jesus Christ. Why do we continue to ignore him and live our lives in the world we hate, the world that hates us? Will we not return to the perfect God who created us and gave us life? He is waiting for us to return to Him. Who will tell the people about the escape God has for us? Here am I. Send me.

| One of the most random titles... hmmmm. "The Four Horseman" is a Metallica song, but I kinda switched it up cuz the song changed to "Ten Thousand Angles" by Kelci Paige. But anywho... lol
I had a roast beef sandwich for lunch today. It was so good! I don't know why, but I loved it a lot. The marriage of all of the different tastes... mmmmmmmmm! So good! Most of the ingredients I don't even usually like by themselves. The bun is kinda bland. The butter is just nastiness. The roast beef is so strong. The cheese is the only thing that I would normally eat plain. Together though, they become something so grand. So spectacular that it just makes you stop and think, "Wow! This is something special."
Why did I bring that up? Cuz it kinda reminds me of people. By ourselves we may not be anything spectacular by human standards, but when we work together for the cause of Christ, we become something spectacular and special. God uses us not only as individuals, but He uses us in much BIGGER ways when we work together. "A strand of three cords is not easily broken." We must stay strong for God. We must stay strong THROUGH God. We must stay strong as The Body of Christ. Just like a band is so much better when playing together and not alone, Christians can be so much better when working together. That's my thought for the day. lol
Today I went shopping. Twas fun indeed. I got shoes. Some Shaq daddies. lol Black on white of course. lol What else did I get? Um... I got some more photo paper. Some new Sharpies. CUZ SHARPIES ROCK! :] They make me happy! Like someone told me once... "Sharpies = Love" :D I also got something else, but it's a secret... so sssssshhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol 
Now I am off to go finish writing my paper. I can't wait 'til it's done! The rough draft will be finished tonight and I will finish it tomorrow so that it can be handed in. Yayers! Leave me messages if you can! I'll check them later tonight. Have a splendid day! I am! :D
In Christ Alone,

| It's Tuesday morning. I am happy once again. My rage is gone. I feel that I can trust God to take care of it. Life is beautiful. I am not going to let myself screw it up. God is so amazing. I want to give my WHOLE life to Him! No matter what. That is what I must do. Life is so precious. Life is so beautiful. I love it. I give it to Him. Anything less would be pointless In The End.
"In The End"
(It starts with)
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I don't even know who reads these. I do know that God is my Hero. Will we answer His call? I challenge you to really seek Him and learn to love God for who He is. You will not regret trusting Him. He will never let you down or turn His back on you. Pray.
Comment.
In Christ Alone,

| A saint.
Falling.
How far to the bottom?
He will find out.
Will anyone care?
He will find out.
Will he be alone?
He will find out.
Bars of music take on new meaning.
Masks and gloves.
Light is choked out by hate.
Good things don't always happen to good people.
Good people don't always do good things.
He loses his vision.
He loses his name.
Will anyone ever find David again?
