| I just wanted to post the lyrics to this song by Nevertheless I am a lover. I am a shame.
I am appalled by what I fame.
I am a lover, but I’ve had my share of
flirting with the darkest affairs.
You can find me here with my head against the wall
lost in my regrets and every time I fall
you catch me in your hands.
You circle me like a wedding band.
I have a lover, faithful and true
cares for me in all that I do.
I have a lover.
My song you have sung with love on
your lips and grace on your tongue.
You can find me here with my head against the wall,
lost in my regrets and every time I fall –
you catch me in your hands.
You circle me like a wedding band.
A promise from Heaven, a promise from you,
a promise to love, I will hold onto.
God of new beginnings, to you I cry,
“Teach me how to love. Teach me how to die.”
In death there’s forgiveness, and forgiveness calls on new life!
You can find me here with my head against the wall,
lost in my regrets and every time I fall –
you catch me in your hands.
You circle me like a wedding band

| Desperate for changing
Starving for truth
Closer where i Started
Chasing after you
forgetting all i'm lacking
completely incomplete
i'll take your invitation
you take all of me -lifehouse I know this is an older song but it was stuck in my head. I guess sometimes I just feel like I'm so far off from where I should be. I've been going through a rough time lately. really desperate for change. I'm not gonna lie, things haven't been good. Internally things have been. . .ya know I don't have a term for it. I think I go through this quite often. A place where I feel stuck and unable to move. I hate that. A place where I don't like myself very much either. I don't like that either. I don't know if I'll ever know the answers to what causes this bondage (gabbie, don't you know you've been set free?). I know there is One I need to hold onto more than anything and so often I find myself pushing Him away or worse, just plain ignoring Him. How do we come to have an intimate relationship (what does this mean anyway?) with this Love, the Truest, Purest Love. Didn't He give us the ultimate example of love? Doesn't He continue to prove that love every day? So why do we push Him away? Is there something else out there that is so much better that could ever satisfy the voids in our hearts? If there is, I haven't found it yet. There is only One true Love I know. Honesty. Brokenness. Grace. Mercy. Faith. Love. (abundant)Life. Healing. Restoration. Redemption. I make life more complicated than I should. Grace, Lord, I need Your Grace. More thinking to be done, more journaling, things to read, ponder, take to heart. . . -gabbie (restore me.) (who I am hates who I've been) | | |
| I am reminded once again, I cannot find my satisfaction in anything other than God. I cannot find my self-worth in anyone else that is not Him! | | |
| Marvelous Light
Charlie Hall
I once was fatherless, a stranger with no hope
Your kindness wakened me, wakened me from my sleep
Your love it beckons deeply, a call to come and die
By grace now I will come and take this life, take Your life
Sin has lost it's power, death has losts its sting
From the grave You've risen victoriously
Chorus:
Into marvelous light I'm running
out of darkness, out of shame, by the cross
You are the truth, You are the life, You are the way
My dead heart is now beating, my deepest stains now clean
Your breath fills up my lungs, now I'm free, now I'm free
Lift my hands and spin around, see the light that I have found
O the marvelous light, marvelous light Went on a retreat this past weekend. All I can say is that it was amazing. Sometimes it's just good to get away from school and busyness and really spend time with God. Spend time in the Word and talking with people who are seeking God's face too. God showed me so much about Himself and about my heart, it astounds me. God sures knows how to restores hearts and renew minds. I will write more about this later. There's so much I have to tell. (I have to go bed now though) Thank You Lord, for being the only One (i've been waiting for) who can satisfy my every need, my every hunger and thirst. You alone complete me, You alone can fill all the emptiness that I have ever felt. Nothing else compares to You and Your wonderful work, Your wonderful love and Your grace that I will never deserve. You fight for us, You make us brave. You are God, You are God. -gabbie Be Bold, Be Strong, the Lord Your God is with You. Be a Prayer Warrior.

| Valentine's Day is coming up. . . I'm not alone, I really believe
You never go, You never leave
Here and now, You always stay
"I love you" could not be said a better way
It's everything You've promised
There's no greater love than this
From prophets until today
A man laying down His life for His friends
Your sacrifice has spoken, You gave everything
And "I love you" could not be said
A better way
I am forgiven, I clearly see
It's why You came to do all you did for me
Trading earth with heaven, You took my place
"I love you" could not be said
A better way
Because You redeem, I know what's to come
Everything I could lose here, You've already won
So You have my surrender, with passion obey
"I love you" could not be said
A better way
-Downhere Life has been crazy, thought I'd "update". Too much to say, to write it all out. If you want to know, really, just ask me. | | |
