Welcome, and Enjoy.

this blog is one outlet that i have for my thoughts and emotions, an online journal if you will. it is my life, or that is what it has become. i started out with not knowing what i wanted it to be. at first it was a place to just relay some funny things going on in my life like the Chick-Fil-A Chronicles. then it turned in to a place to post quizzes and the like that i thought amusing as time has gone on i have shared much of my person life. and after a few years of writing i realized what this blog is about. it is about me. all these thing that i have written about are about "where i am in my life".

* note - i almost never capitalize anything and i do not spell very well, and my grammar is not the best.

Song Writing

on saturday mornings i get together with a friend of mine and talk of life issues and our relationship with God. so one morning we were talking about God's love for us, and how it never fails. we decided to go outside on the deck and pray.

as i was sitting there and listening to him pray, the sun come out from behind the trees. i could feel the sun warming my face. so with my eyes closed i look up in the direction of the sun and let it radiate on my face. while enjoying the sun i got to thinking about our talk about God's love. i started thinking about the way God's love radiates to us, much like the sun on my face. this lead me to thinking about the moon as well. how it reflect the suns light to us in the dark night sky. and i compared that to our own lives, how we are to reflect the love of God with our lives. how we are the representation of Christ to the those that are in the dark.

when we finished praying i told my friend about what i was thinking. he inspired (and challenged) me to write my thoughts down, not just the details but how it might make a good song, so i did. i have never written a song before, so i spent a few hours working on it. then this last saturday we sat down together and put music to it and did some fine tuning. so here is the finished product.

On Bended Knee

I feel the sun, warm on my face.
Much like your lo—ving embrace.
Providing light all of my days.
So I can see all of your ways.

Chorus
You hold me in your mighty arms.
Where I am sure that none can harm.
You lift me up and set me free.
So I can kneel on bended knee.

The Moon reflects the golden sun.
My life replects your sacred one. (Jesus)
And in the dark the light shines through.
Your Love is shown always to be true.

Chorus
You hold me in your mighty arms.
Where I am sure that none can harm.
You lift me up and set me free.
So I can kneel on bended knee.

You hold me in your mighty arms.
Where I am sure that none can harm.
You lift me up and set me free.
So I can kneel on bended knee.
So I can kneel on bended knee.
So I stand tall on bended knee.

i do hope to get someone else to sing it, when i can get a recording i will post it.
