Now that you're near

the song was playing in my head the WHOLE day, talk about bad ear worms.

Hold me in Your arms
Never let me go
I wanna spend eternity with You

I stand before You, Lord
And give You all my praise
Your love is all I need
Jesus, You're all I need

My life belongs to You
You gave Your life for me
Your grace is all I need
Jesus, You're all I need

Hold me in Your arms
Never let me go
I wanna spend eternity with You

And now that You're near
Everything is different
Everything's so different, Lord
And I know I'm not the same
My life You've changed
And I wanna be with You
I wanna be with You

And I will sing for You always'
Cause in Your presence God is where I wanna stay

more decisions

I don't know what i have decided. It's difficult when i feel my heart's torn in every direction possible.

what i know:

I love E.W.S. it is for them i look forward to each school day. I love the way they crack me up and the way we talk like we've known each other since forever. I love the way we laugh and eat. I love the way we sing and share. I love the way we praise Jesus. I can only thank Him for giving me such wonderful, beautiful, amazing, inspiring, loving, warm, (insert superlative) friends.I feel happy that they did well for Os and that they can go to wherever they want to go, but i want us to be together still. I feel selfish for wanting them to stay with me. It's difficult to let go when i know something like this doesn't come easily.

I don't know why God gives then takes it back.
