Breathe in, breathe out
Tell me all of your doubts
Everybody bleeds this way, just the same
Breathe in, breathe out
Move on and break down
If everyone goes away, I will stay
We push and pull
And I fall down sometimes
And I’m not letting go
You hold the other line
Cause there is a light in your eyes, in your eyes
Hold on, hold tight
If I’m out of your sight
And everything keeps moving on, moving on
Hold on, hold tight
Make it through another night
In every day there comes a song with the dawn
We push and pull
And I fall down sometimes
And I’m not letting go
You hold the other line
Cause there is a light in your eyes, in your eyes
There is a light in your eyes, in your eyes
Breathe in and breathe out
Breathe in and breathe out
Breathe in and breathe out
Breathe in and breathe out
Look left, look right
To the moon and the night
Everything under the stars is in your arms
Cause there is a light in your eyes, in your eyes
There is a light in your eyes, in your eyes
There is a light in your eyes, in your eyes
Therefore I am now going to allure her;
I will lead her into the desert and speak tenderly to her. There I will give her back her vineyards,
and will make the Valley of Achor (trouble) a door of hope.
There she will sing as in the days of her youth,
as in the day she came up out of Egypt.
In that day, declared the Lord..
You will call me ‘my husband’
you will no longer call me ‘my master’
In this season of “the desert” I sit in hopeful anticipation to see the fruit on His time. When I feel as if there is “no comfort in the waiting room”, I am reminded that character, hope and trust are developed in the desert and that He will never leave me or forsake me.
I hope in the fact that even in this dry season of unsatisfied longings and unanswered questions, my mind is being transformed and renewed.
Even though at times I have come so close to compromising, I choose not to settle for the things that may temporarily satisfy in the hope that there are better things to come, and that His timing is perfect.
If everything comes down to love
Then just what I am afraid of
When I call out Your name
Something inside awakes in my soul
How quickly I forget I’m Yours
I’m not my own
I’ve been carried by You
All my life
Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free
When my life is like a storm
Rising waters all I want is the shore
You say I’ll be okay and
Make it through the rain
You are my shelter from the storm
I’m not my own
I’ve been carried by You
All my life
Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free
Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free
You’ve become my hearts desire
I will sing Your praises higher
Cause Your love sets me free
Your love sets me free
Your love sets me free
A music video we shot for the opening of the “Bringing Back the Magic” series at 12Stone. You will see me along with my brother Brandon and sister Krista in the background at the end of the video cheesing it up. Enjoy!
Continue to be faithful in the small things. Continue to believe in the midst of unclarity and confusion. Continue to live for the things that don’t bring immediate gratification, but develop character and a promising future. Continue to lay down your selfish desires and lusts for the greater hope in the end.
When you can’t see the payoff in the moment, continue to believe that good things will come. In the midst of uncertainty with jobs, families, relationships and health, continue to believe that God is good and that he will work everything out for the good of those who love him.
Keep believing, keep hoping, keep choosing to live for things bigger than yourself.
The Fray – You Found Me Lyrics
I found god
On the corner of first and Amistad
Where the west was all but won
All alone, smoking his last cigarette
I Said where you been, he said ask anything
Where were you?
When everything was falling apart
All my days were spent by the telephone
It never rang
And all I needed was a call
That never came
To the corner of first and Amistad
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
In the end everyone ends up alone
Losing her, the only one who’s ever known
Who I am, who I’m not, who I want to be
No way to know how long she will be next to me
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
Early morning, City breaks
I’ve been calling for years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never send me no letters
You got some kind of nerve, taking all I want
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Where were you where were you
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
As many of you know, my house is a spectacle on Halloween. My dad works for days hand building a haunted house and decorating our entire yard for the thousands of kids that come every year. He has been creating this Halloween phenomenon for 30 years. Many adults have been coming since they were children. The news has caught wind, and usually stops by the night of to do a story.
He receives letters and thank you cards from kids all over the state of Ga that thank him for making their Halloween extra fun, and letting him know this is a tradition that they look forward to every year at my house. I cant reveal the secret set up for this years extravaganza, but here are some pictures from the past. Please come and stop by the night of Halloween and see how this has impacted a community.
Love God. Passionate about events and giving back to my community. I'm a recent grad from GA State University with a degree in Managerial Sciences and will soon figure out what the real world is like after college.
