the way i connect with God is through music, art, poetry. it's really deep for me. i think it probably stems from my baptist/charismatic church roots. a refrain is sometimes all it would take, to help me feel an overwhelming sense of His grace and get me through.
so the game is, if you've got a song, verse, refrain, stuck in your head, name the song. share the refrain. whatev.
I'm forgiven because You were forsaken. I'm accepted. You were condemned. I'm alive and well. Your spirit is within me. Because You died and rose again.
Amazing Love, how can it be? That You my king should die for me? Amazing Love, I know it's true! And it's my joy to honor You! In all I do, To honor You!
I thought up this phrase while ago, and it's been running through my mind ever since:
"Have you ever noticed that we Christians almost love to BRAG about whatever we HATE & is bothering us...but are too SILENT about the God that we LOVE?"
"When you've given your all and it's not enough, when the journey is too far and road is too tough... and you look inside and there's nothing left-- there is still hope if you only believe."

Lord it was You, who created the heavens. Lord it was Your hands, that put the stars in their place. Lord it is Your voice, that commands the mornings. Cause even oceans and their waves they bow at Your feet, oh God!
Lord who am i, compared to Your glory! Lord who am i, compared to Your majesty!
Cause i'm Your Beloved, Your Creation, and You love me as i am! You called me chosen, for Your kingdom, unashamed to call me Your own! I'm Your Beloved!
