Caught in suspension

I still can’t connect to my FTP, so the layout would have to wait. Another pending layout must be finished this weekend, but it’s late, so I have to go because I have some serious journalling and praying to do before I lose these realizations. I’ll share them next time, but in the meantime, here’s some things I’ve been using to reflect on things…and life, in general.

[God] often takes us aside every other source of comfort so that He alone can have our heart’s attention.
Captivating, John & Stasi Elredge

That quote has been on my Livejournal for months, and only now did it really strike me. Next, a song:

ANYTHING
[Mae, The Everglow]

Love, it’s the wave I ride
That won’t ever reach the shore
Overwhelmed by the tide
but wanting nothing more..tonight
Than to take this time and make it all mine
It’s coming around again

[Chorus]
Every now and again sometimes
I get lost on the wind of a dream
The air gets clean and the seas get wide
and I can do anything
The pain it won’t even cross my mind
There’s wonder in everything
The rope gets loose and the chains unbind
and I can do anything

Hope, it’s the light that strikes
that burns inside of me
It’s a blinding light but somehow I can see…again
When I’ve lost my way
It’s becoming very clear
And it’s coming around again

Every now and again sometimes
I get lost on the wind of a dream
The air gets clean and the seas get wide
and I can do anything
The pain it won’t even cross my mind
There is wonder in everything
The ropes get loose and the chains unbind
and I can do anything

Somewhere between the darkness and the light
My spirit takes to fly
The colors fill the sky
And I’m free
Oh-oh…

It’s coming around again
It’s coming around again
It’s coming around again

[Chorus] 2x

I’ve been playing Mae’s songs nonstop since yesterday. Gotta love their music. Anyway, I’m off to write. :D Good night everyone!
