Now Back to Me...

Hmm... mostly dealing with the music meme today.  I need to pick a song to describe myself.  Which requires that I know the self that I'm describing.

I don't spend a lot of time trying to figure out who I am.  I know that I ask a lot of myself, and that I don't always get there, but overall I like who I am.  I'm generally pretty easygoing.  I do my best to treat everyone around me fairly and with respect.  I get my work done and out of the way pretty efficiently, then focus on people.  I do my best to give and give and give as much as I can.  I don't know.  Like I said, I'm not perfect, but I'm trying to live as God would want me to.  And as someone wise once said, the glory of God is a human being fully alive.  So I guess that's the best way for me to describe myself... alive.  As much as humanly possible.


Day 15: A song that describes you

It's hard to pick a song for this.  How about these:

It feels a little bit like I'm taking the easy way out by choosing to describe myself through my relationship with God, but ultimately, it is the central defining feature of who I am and who I want to be.  Everything about the way I act and the way I treat others comes from my attempts to be right with him.  So yes.  Like Lifehouse, I'm still figuring everything out, but I don't want that to stop me from fully committing to what he wants from me.  And like Casting Crowns, I know I'm not perfect and I know I don't always live up to the standards I aspire to, but it's not about how I see myself; rather, it's about learning to trust the God who knows me better than I know myself.

What the heck.  One more song, based on the intro above.  Can't find a video because the song isn't that popular, but you can listen to it here.

Hey, I'm halfway through this thing.  Would you look at that...
