Life Has Taken Its Turns
Well I am at my house and listening to this song. This song really hits me hard, and makes me incredibly sad. Here, I'll go ahead and paste it here. The song is written from God's standpoint.
KUTLESS LYRICS
"Run"
Why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know I
just, just want to be with you.
Looking down from above as you watch TV
Wondering why, oh you're ignoring me
Do you remember, remember when I came to you
And you loved me
And I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you
Why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know I
just, just want to be with you, to be with you
Hey, why do you run why do you hide oh do't you know
I just, just want to be with you, to be with you...
Whatever happened to the love, the love you had for me
When you first came to me
Don't you know that I died, died so I could be with
you forever.
And I'm waiting for you
And I'm waiting for you
Why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know I
just, just want to be with you, to be with you
Hey, why do you run why do you hid oh don't you know
I just, just want to be with you, to be with you...
Find a place of solitude, and I'll speak to you
As you pray to me
Don't you know I'm waiting here, waiting for you to
read and hear my words
I'm waiting here missing the time the times we shared
oh, please come to me
So, why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know I
just, just want to be with you, to be with you
Hey, why do you run why do you hide oh don't you know
I just, just want to be with you, to be with you...
As I got to the second to last paragraph I came to tears. I need God, and I know it!
I just feel so lost in my life at times. Sometimes I seem to get a glimpse of my future,
but then I always seem to loose sight of it. As I listen to this song I realize what God is going through right now. Not just with me, but with every human here on Earth.
He's waiting for us. Why do we run? Why do we hide? All he wants is to be with us!! The Bible says that if we find a place of solitude and pray to God, we will find him. Maybe we all need to do this more often. Jesus went through so much, just so I could have the chance to truly live. And yet, my selfishness always tries to get in the way. God I need you! I want to be with you too.
As far as other news is concerned. Life is drastically different now than it was back in December. I only had one class during the second semester at Mariner. I practically disappeared fromt the school. One of the best things I have ever done, yet one of the things I regret the most. I needed to get away and straighten up my life.....but I feel like I walked out on everybody.......I hope I didn't hurt any of you. If you people really knew about all the family problems I had to go though....you would understand why I had to get away...........but I'm sorry and I miss all the times I used to share with ya'll.
I started college through the Running Start program in April and also started working fulltime at McDonald's. I've been going out with a girl named Cassie who attends Cascade and will be a Senior next year. For the most part we have a great realtionship......although we do have our ups and downs.
Anybody going to Edmonds? Holla back!
So, I guess I should set another 6 month goal for me and my life.....well let's see.....
I want to get at least a 3.7 GPA for the fall quarter, and be doing sucessful in the winter. Hopefully I will get a new job, or at least be a Crew Trainer. I hope to be attending Generation Church on a weekly bassis and getting involved with the people. I also plan on getting involved in a Youth Group at Edmonds Community, and if there isn't one......then I plan on starting a bible study. These are the things I want to get accomplished! And I know that if I put this all in God's hands....he will help me achieve all of these.
I love all of you out there! I miss you guys! But through Christ it is never good-bye.....just see you later. God bless, and e-mail me whenever you guys want. theandyman17@yahoo.com
