Quote of the Day:
Lyrics of the Day:
“It’s so like you just to show up at my door
And act like nothin’s happened
You think I’ll sweep my heart up off the floor
And give it to you
Like so many times before
You’re talking to a stranger
I’m not that girl anymore
That girl is long gone
Boy you missed the boat it just sailed away
Long gone
She’s not drowning in her yesterdays
Betcha never thought I’d be that strong
Well this girl is long gone”
~“Long Gone” by Lady Antebellum

Verse of the Day:
“O Israel, my faithless people,
come home to me again,
for I am merciful.
I will not be angry with you forever.
Only acknowledge your guilt.
Admit that you rebelled against the Lord your God
and committed adultery against him
by worshiping idols under every green tree.
Confess that you refused to listen to my voice.
I, the Lord, have spoken!”
~Jer 3:12-13
Quote of the Day:

Lyrics of the Day:
“What I’d give to make you coffee.
Find out how you like your eggs.
Wrapped around you in the mornin’.
A tangled lace of arms and legs.
What I’d give to let you love me.
Find out everything that brings you joy.
Wake up to your face above me.
I’d be that girl and you could be that boy.
Find out why that feelin’ is…
Oh, what I’d give. What I’d give.”

Verse of the Day:
“We should live in this evil world with wisdom, righteousness, and devotion to God, while we look forward with hope to that wonderful day when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be revealed. He gave his life to free us from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to make us his very own people, totally committed to doing good deeds. ”

~Calvin & Hobbs
Lyrics of the Day:
“You don’t know me,
But i, don’t even know myself
We can’t pretend that i’m someone else
Try to surrender, i try to understand
I can’t remember who i am
The evil things that i’ve done.
Wash away, in the warmth of your sun
The broken man that you see,
Is not me, just a shadow where i used to be”

Lyrics of the Day:
“I had a dream that I was falling, down
There’s no next time around
A storm wastes its water on me
But my life was free
I guess it’s the world that we live in
It’s not too late for that
This is the world that we live in
And no, we can’t go back
This is the world that we live in
We still want something real
This is the world that we live in
I know that…
This is the world that we live in”

I will trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I will not be afraid.
What can mortal man do to me? ”
~Ps 56:3-4
Quote of the Day:
“When I grow up, I’m not going to read the newspaper and I’m not going to follow complex issues and I’m not going to vote. That way I can complain when the government doesn’t represent me. Then, when everything goes down the tubes, I can say the system doesn’t work and justify my further lack of participation.”
~Calvin, “Calvin & Hobbs”
Lyrics of the Day:
“Do you wish your nose was longer
So you’d have an excuse not to see past it
Do you wish the lights were brighter in the city that you live
I am so sick of consequence and the look on your face
I am tired of playing defense
I don’t even have hockey skates
You can meet me at ten thirty
I won’t be there I’ll be gone
We can talk like we are friends
Going over it all again
Talking about everything I am doing wrong”
~ “Hockey Skates” by Kathleen Edwards

Lyrics of the Day:
“Let’s, you and me, make our way just beyond Haight Street.
Lets leave this life behind, forgetting all they say.
The time we had is time well borrowed.
Stay out all night, forget tomorrow.
Let’s, you and me, make a night of it.
Old enough to know, but too young to care.
Let’s, you and me, make a night of it.
Old enough to know, but too young to care.
The rear view mirror shows the times we’re abandoning.
Let’s leave this night behind, forgetting all they say.
The time we had is time well borrowed.
Stay out all night; forget tomorrow.
Let’s, you and me, make a night of it…”

Lyrics of the Day:
“Sarabeth is scared to death
To hear what the doctor will say
She hasn’t been well
Since the day that she fell
And the bruise, it just won’t go away
So she sits and she waits with her mother and dad
Flips through an old magazine
Till the nurse with a smile
Stands at the door
And says will you please come with me
Sarabeth is scared to death
Cause the doctor just told her the news
Between the red cells and white
Something’s not right
But we’re gonna take care of you
Six chances in ten it won’t come back again
With the therapy were gonna try
It’s just been approved
It’s the strongest there is
I think we caught it in time
Sarabeth closes her eyes
And she dreams she’s dancing
Around and around without any cares
And her very first love is holding her close
And the soft wind is blowing her hair
Sarabeth is scared to death
As she sits holding her mom
Cause it would be a mistake
For someone to take
A girl with no hair to the prom
For, just this morning right there on her pillow
Was the cruelest of any surprise
And she cried when she gathered it all in her hands
The proof that she couldn’t deny
Sarabeth closes her eyes
And she dreams she’s dancing
Around and around without any cares
And her very first love was holding her close
And the soft wind is blowing her hair
Its quarter to seven
That boys at the door
And her daddy ushers him in
And when he takes off his cap
They all start to cry
Cause this mornin where his hair had been
Softly she touches just skin
And they go dancin
Around and around without any cares
And her very first true love is holding her close
And for a moment she isn’t scared”

Lyrics of the Day:
“Feed me the words to explain this urge
With pressure and squeeze, from points underneath
The streams in your skin are ready
And I can, so I will, just as long as you instill
This fear in my heart
I just hope that you aren’t alone
“Did I do something wrong?” her eyes start to question
Yes, you did something wrong.
You just failed to mention
Hopefully you will see that the plans and the dreams
That we shared in this haze
They all wilt away”
