'wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.'

'i hope that last things last past these first charms, these pale charms.', 'last things last' by rachel's band. this will be a random and odd post, but hey... i think that way. but i listened to this song by rachel's and i was thinking about my prayer life lately... i'm at the point i always get to. that point being where my prayer time 'feels like i'm talking to a brick wall.' so God i hope my passion and want for you goes 'past these first charms, these pale charms.' that it will last through my 'pale charms.' which brings me on to the next song quote and realization of who i am now compared to who i used to be.... i used to count on me and no You Lord.

'And Your skin taste much better with aging not sweet like it was back in our sunday school.' this song is by manchester orchestra and it's entitled 'now that you're home.' i never was a sunday school kid, per-say. but it stands, Jesus you grow with age and wisdom. divine wisdom. i read the bible with new eyes and my heart sees with a new passion, a burning passion of how i will look, but how you look through me Lord. not saying it isn't rough, but oh how Your glory shines Lord. in the Psalms david asks 'where are you Lord?' many times like i do... and here you were the whole time, right here. now where was i?

'wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.'

here I am Lord, O here i am... all for You Lord. continuing after You. i know you are here, because before i didn't know where you weren't. that hasn't changed, You haven't changed. I love You Man.
