pushing in for the home stretch...

life never gets easier, have you noticed? working through a bunch of stuff, struggling to enjoy my last weeks here in vélez, looking forward to traveling with my dad. life keeps moving, always stretching us to the limit.
two songs from the david crowder band are encouraging me this week. note these lyrics:
You're everythingI could want / That I could need / If I could see / You want me / Could I believe? / 'Cause You're perfectly / All I want, all I need / If I could just feel / Your touch / Could I be free? / Why do You shine so? / Can a blind man see? / Why do You call? / Why do You beckon me? / Can the deaf hear the voice of love? / Would You have me come? / Can the cripple run? / Are You the one?
What can I do with my obsession / With the things I cannot see / Is there madness in my being / Is it the wind that moves the trees? / Sometimes You're further than the moon / Sometimes You're closer than my skin / And You surround me like a winter fog / You've come and burned me with a kiss
Chorus And my heart burns for You / And my heart burns...for You
And I'm so filthy with my sin / I carry pride like a disease / You know I'm stubborn, Lord, and I'm longing to be close / You burn me deeper than I know / And I feel lonely without hope / And I feel desperate / Without vision / You wrap around me like a winter coat / You come and free me like bird
if you're reading, say a prayer for your friends far away...they need it.
