refreshment

some part of me has been rather dry lately...
uninspired

why?

who knows.

i'm slowly feeling more refreshed i think
and confident that the work here will be carried on to completion.

anyways
i adore Jon Foreman songs right now.

it's interesting how songs taken straight from the bible are particularly meaningful to me.

some of my favorite bits...


both of our hands
are equally skilled
at doing evil
equally skilled
at bribing the judges
equally skilled
at perverting justice
both of our hands

and both of his hands
are equally skilled
at ruining evil
equally skilled
at judging the judges
equally skilled
administring justice
both of his hands


would you create in me a clean heart, oh God
restore in me the joy of my salvation
wash me white as snow
and i will be made whole


this cross, my love, is mine, my love
to bear, my love, to die, my love
this cup, my love, this bread, my love
my life, my love, is yours, my love
come drink, my love, my blood, my love
my life, my love, in death, my love
my God, my love, my life, my love
is yours, my love, my bride, my love


all along-
thought I was learning how to take
how to bend not how to break
how to live not how to cry
but really
i've been learning how to die


baptize my mind
baptize my eyes
baptize my mind
for a seed to give birth to life
first it must die


i look at the meadow
and stare at the flowers
better dressed than any girl
on her wedding day

the kingdom of the heavens
is buried treasure.
will you sell yourself
to buy the one you've found?

two things you told me
that you are strong
and you love me

(that whole song- you're love is strong- is entirely superb)
