Tito, get me a tissue.

I've seen this video quite a few times now and every time it never fails to make me cry. I don't know if it's because the message is so personally powerful to me or it's just a powerful message period. It might be a good idea to have something to wipe your eyes with after this. I know I needed it.



I found it again on Dustin's blog. He's got something good going on up in Alaska. You should check him out.

SOTW #3

OK, even though it might seem like it, I'm not in love with Brooke Fraser. Maybe her voice. Definitely her words. I promise, I will pick other artists but I mean, c'mon! This song just hits it out of the park for me. One of the girls at church yesterday just killed it. Did an absolutely marvelous job with it. Todd asked us to underline any part of the song where the words stood out, where you felt like God was speaking to you. I underlined "Still standing."

What did you underline?




Shadowfeet

By Brooke Fraser
Off the Album "Albertine"

Walking, stumbling on these shadowfeet
Toward home, a land that I've never seen
I am changing, less and less asleep
Made of different stuff than when i began
And i have sensed it all along
Fast approaching is the day

[CHORUS]
When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in you, still standing
When the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
When time and space are through
I'll be found in you

There's distraction buzzing in my head
Saying in the shadows it's easier to stay
But I've heard rumours of true reality
Whispers of a well-lit way

[CHORUS]

You make all things new
You make all things new
You make all things new
You make all things
You make all things

[CHORUS 2]

When the world has fallen out from under me
I'll be found in you, still standing
Every fear and accusation under my feet
When time and space are through
I'll be found in you

When time and space are through
I'll be found in you
When time and space are through
I'll be found in you

Starving Jesus

This is so rare as to be unprecedented I think! Two posts in one day. Here's the deal. I'm playing in a poker tournament on the internet, reading blogs when I stumble into Holy herectoclite's blog. I don't even know if I spelled that right but it's close. Anyway, there is this video on there about two young preachers from http://www.xxxchurch.com/ that go on a 40 day fast and a 40 day tour of the country. It's an amazing thing to watch and also for a good cause. If you have an hour (I know, almost impossible anymore) check it out. I am so glad that I did. Maybe the best video I've seen on the 'net. Here it is and I believe the website is http://www.starvingjesus.com/.





p.s. I won the tournament!!! See what a great video it was!

Alright, I can't make the google link work. If you REALLY want to check this out, type in "google starving jesus" and you will see the video link on there. I suck. Thanks.
