Just give me Jesus...

Since last night I've had a song stuck in my head. The chosen song for over 24 hours? "Give me Jesus" Sung by Jeremy Camp. Here are the words.

In the morning, when I rise

Give me Jesus

You can have all this world

Just give me Jesus

When I am alone

Oh, when I am alone

Give me Jesus

You can have all this world

Just give me Jesus

When I come to die

Oh, when I come to die

Give me Jesus

You can have all this world

Just give me Jesus

Give me Jesus

You can have all this world

Just give me Jesus.

These lyrics have spoke to my heart all day, I've found myself constantly humming them. When Life is crazier then crazy and stuff doesn't seem to be going how you thought you'd like it to go. And you have no idea which way to go next. When you look at your future and it makes no sense and you're not sure where God is leading. When the world around you is falling apart. When there is strife in the middle east. It doesn't matter the situation.. because at the end of the day- You can have All this world, Just give me Jesus.

Seasons come and seasons go - Most of the time

The following is a statement from our daytime/weekend weather man. "Keyc Mankato Snow Facts about our notable season: Since November 1st, 84.5 inches of snow. That's nearly 30" more than what we had last year (56.5", which seemed like a lot!) We've had snow on the ground since November 13th. That's nearly 4 months of snow... 1/3 of the year! -Meteorologist Mitch Keegan" Now don't take me wrong. I LOVE winter. It is by far my fav season. But most of our seasons aren't normally this long, we have lots of "in-between seasons". The truth? I'm tired of having to wear sunglasses anytime I'm outside to not be blinded by the sheer whiteness of everything. I'd like to see some green, and wear a t-shirt without a hoodie. pretty please? Oh And well.. even with our 25 foot dikes they're really worried about flooding. :( North Mankato is well below the dike line and there's already talk of people moving stuff out of the...

I Believe In A Lie

Everyone has a lie that plays in the back of their head so often that they don't know when they started believing it, or where the lie came from, it's just a recognized fact. My lie is that I am alone in the world. I don't think anyone ever told me that I was alone in the world, or that it was my job to protect myself from the universe, but it is most definitely how my brain has functioned for as long as I can remember. Wherever I've moved or whoever I'm around, this lie follows me. As I've gotten older I have come to a place in life where I recognize that this is a lie, and some days I can even not believe it. But still, this lie persistently lives in my head. I think I can say with confidence that this is a lie of the enemy that I will fight the rest of my life. Recently, this lie has been winning more battles than I care to admit. Let me explain. You see, throughout college, God was pushing me and molding me. Part of this molding was le...

I battle not against flesh...

" Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and...
