Graduation is coming up a lot sooner than I expected. I can hardly believe I've been in college for two years already... It's gone by fast. I wish it would slow down. One reason being, I have no idea what I want to do with my life. Better yet, I have no idea what God's plan is for my life. Several friends already have a general idea of what they want to do, what God is calling them to do. When people ask what I want to do after graduation, I panic a little, my palms become sweaty, and my heart pounds in my chest. How do I answer them? Can I only say, "I don't know"? That's not the answer people want. But, I don't want to just conjure up some wild idea and use that as my story to please their curiosity. I want give them the truth.

... So, here is the truth:  I don't know what my future holds. But I do know a God who does. Whatever He has planned, that's what I want. His dreams are my dreams. I want to always be in His will, following Him wherever He leads. When He opens a door, I'll go through it; when He closes it, I will wait. That's why I like the quote above by Oswald Chambers. 

That's where I'm at right now.

Shalom :]

I could seriously listen to this song all day and never grow tired of it... And I have.

How Can I Stand Here With You and Not Be Moved By You?

Lifehouse : Everything

Find me here, speak to me

I want to feel You, I need to hear You

You are the light that's leading me

To the place where I find peace again

You are the strength that keeps me walking

You are the hope that keeps me trusting

You are the light to my soul

You are my purpose, You're everything

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?

Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and You give me rest

You hold me in Your hands, You won't let me fall

You steal my heart, and You take my breath away

Would You take me in, take me deeper now

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?

Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

'Cause You're all I want, You're all I need

You're everything, everything

You're all I want , You're all I need

You're everything, everything

And how can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?

Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?

Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with You and not be moved by You?

Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

Would You tell me, how could it be any better than this?

Jon Foreman - Your Love Is Strong

Heavenly Father, you always amaze me/

Let your kingdom come in my world and in my life/
Give me the food I need to live through today/
And forgive me as I forgive the people that wrong me/
Lead me far from temptation/
Deliver me from the evil one/

I look out the window the birds are composing/
Not a note is out of tune or out of place/
I walk to the meadow and stare at the flowers/
Better dressed than any girl on her wedding day/

So why do I worry?/
Why do I freak out?/
God knows what I need/
You know what I need/

//Your love is, Your love is, Your love is strong//

The kingdom of the heavens is now advancing/
Invade my heart, invade this broken town/
The kingdom of the Heavens is buried treasure/
Would you sell yourself to buy the one you've found?/

Two things you told me/
That you are strong/
And you love me/
Yes, you love me/

//Your love is, Your love is, Your love is strong//

Our God in Heaven/
Hallowed be thy name/
Above all names/
Your kingdom come/
Your will be done/
On earth as it is in heaven/
Give us today our daily bread/
Forgive us weary sinners/
Keep us far away from our vices/
And deliver us from these prisons/
