AWESOME SONG.

He is jealous for me
Love's like a hurricane, I am a tree
Bending beneath the weight of His wind and mercy
When all of a sudden, I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory
and I realize just how beautiful You are and how great your affections are for me.
Oh, how He loves us so
Oh, how He loves us
How He loves us so.

Yeah, He loves us
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves.

So we are His portion and He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes
If grace is an ocean we're all sinking
So heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss and my heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets when I think about the way

That he loves us,
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves

He loves us,
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves

[Whispered]: Well, I thought about You the day Stephen died and You met me between my breaking
I know that I still love You, God, despite the agony
...they want to tell me You're cruel
But if Stephen could sing, he'd say it's not true, cause...[voice breaks]...

Cause He loves us,
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves

Yeah, He loves us
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves us
Woah, how He loves

Day of Silence

Today I have been participating in the Pro-Life day of silence, losing your voice for the kids that have never had one. I have learned that focusing on Jesus is the key. I have been praying all day for God to stop abortion, the facts are sad. This has made a tremendous impact on my other classmates, I really hope everyone will participate next year. silentday.org

Epiphany!

Here are some things I've learned recently:
1. I'm really hard on myself.
2. My mind wanders around a lot.
3. It's hard not to smile when I think about certain things.
4. I have not been able to hold still lately.
5. Choir is the most amazing class that ever existed.
6. It's not always scary when people yell stuff out their car windows to you.

Yeah, I really have not a lot to write...but I'm extremely bored because the teacher won't LET me do the assignment.

Inappropriate Movies

Okay, so I'm sitting in the library right now because I did not want to watch the movie "Anger Management" due to it's vulgarity and inappropriate content. I don't understand why in the world they allow us to watch these types of movies, but students get in trouble for emulating what they do in the movies. Does this sound a little bit hypocritical to you? If we are not allowed to emulate the content of inappropriate movies, then why are we allowed to watch them? It doesn't make any sense to me. I do give the school district props on allowing students to leave because of the content, but I think this should be outlawed.
