Yesterday during communion I was so moved I cried. I don't ever remember doing that. I was so overwhelmed by His great love and sacrifice for me and my unworthiness. I cried out for forgiveness for the shame I bring His name; how I don't even want to please Him sometimes. I long for a desire to do nothing but live my life for Him, not allowing the selfish ME side to rule. It seems I always revert back to the worst possible actions. May He hear my cry and answer. Praise Him for His great love, mercy, forgiveness, faithfulness.

KNOWING

I knew you once. I DON'T KNOW YOU NOW (OR YOU DON'T KNOW ME). I long to know you again (or be known by you).

HIS LOVE IS BETTER THAN LIFE

Listen to the Newsboys.
I love the new Newsboys album! If you like Christian contemporary worship music, they are my favorite band and this album is a great one. You can hear a few of the songs at the above site, but not the ones I like the best. Maybe if you did a search online for the titles you could, but I am not computer savvy enough to do it for you! (Faith did all this for me--thanks, Faith!)
Three terrific other songs on the album ( and there are even more) are titled "The Mission," "Something Beautiful," and "Your love is better than life," of which I am going to print some of the words below: (NOTE: the "dunno" is said with the Australian accent)

I dunno nothing that I haven't been taught. (Please excuse the double negative here!) :>)
I dunno
Why I was born into the family I've got.
I dunno
If I ever had an original thought, maybe so, maybe not, maybe later.
I dunno, I dunno
How can I end a prayer, then turn on a friend.
I dunno
Why I still criticize the things I dunno.
I dunno but I KNOW
YOUR LOVE IS BETTER THAN LIFE
Without your love, I am just a broken machine
YOUR LOVE IS BETTER THAN LIFE
Without your love, it's all a mindless routine
Without your love, I'm in another free fall ; I'VE GOT NOTHING AT ALL
YOUR LOVE IS BETTER THAN LIFE
Without your touch I'm not a full human being.
If I should ever go, where would I go?
I look to you 'cause you're the lover of my soul.
I dunno when to walk away or stand and fight
Just when I've got it wrong, I'm sure I heard you right
When my arguments are watertight
You expose every hole
I hear you call in the eye of the storm
I know you've had my back since the day I was born
Still stoking my heart, still stirring my head
You're my pillar of fire, you're the wine, you're the bread, and
YOUR LOVE IS BETTER THAN LIFE

That's about all for now. May God be the lover of YOUR soul!
