"It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man.
It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes."
- Psalm 118:8,9

Out to Eat...

... with Alyssa and Matthew!
They're quite the pair, I must say. ;)

Because she said so.

A wonderful, sweet girlfriend of mine sent me this picture and said it really needed to be put on the blog. :)
It was taken at a Friday school meeting at the Hazell's house, I think last year or the year before. Those were great times, and I definitely miss everyone a lot!

Ally, remember the fish dissection?? ... and what we named it? ;)

Girls

Lovely...

... yes,

... lovely.

John was in the ladies' restroom with Meg and Jen at the Wendy's restaraunt the other day. (They were taking him off Mama's hands for a few minutes.)
A sweet old lady said, "Well hi there, Honey! What's you're name?"
The little guy swiftly replied, "I'm Mitchel, and [pointing to the girls] this is Sally and Dorcas."

Neither of the girls bothered to correct it.
And, later, we all laughed a lot.

For the Moments I Feel Faint

Am I at the point of no improvement?
What of the death I still dwell in?
I try to excel, but I feel no movement.
Can I be free of this unreleasable sin?
Never underestimate my Jesus.
You're telling me that there's no hope.
I'm telling you, you're wrong.
Never underestimate my Jesus.
When the world around you crumbles,
He will be strong.
He will be strong.

I throw up my hands.
"Oh the impossibilities."
Frustrated and tired,
where do I go from here?
Now I'm searching for the confidence I've lost so willingly.
Overcoming these obstacles is overcoming my fears.
I think I can't, I think I can't.
But, I think You can, I think You can.
I think I can't, I think I can't.
But, I think You can, I think You can.
Gather my insufficiencies and place them in Your hands.
Place them in Your hands.
Place them in Your hands.

I know You can.
