Verse of the Day:

~Ps 119:49-50

Excerpt of the Day:
“A saint’s life is in the hands of God like a bow and arrow in the hands of an archer. God is aiming at something the saint cannot see, and He stretches and strains, and every now and again the saint says, ‘I cannot stand anymore.’ But God does not heed, He goes on stretching till His purpose is in sight, and then He lets fly.”
~ Oswald Chambers seen in “How to Beat Disillusionment”

Verse of the Day:
I’m fairly certain my church at home in Colorado got to dance with Jesus a bit this weekend….

I am so lucky to have found a church that loves like this in every place I live.

Verse of the Day:
“ I was hungry and you fed me,
I was thirsty and you gave me a drink,
I was homeless and you gave me a room,
I was shivering and you gave me clothes,
I was sick and you stopped to visit,
I was in prison and you came to me.’
…
Then the King will say, ‘I’m telling the solemn truth: Whenever you did one of these things to someone overlooked or ignored, that was me—you did it to me.’ ”
~Matt 25

Verse of the Day:

“Listen to me now

And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own”

I think Jesus would have been in the middle of this dance floor…and I am pretty sure this is what he had in mind when he said let there be church.   What it does to your life when you get to be a part of one like this. And I get to be a part of two.

Quote of the Day:
“Photography begins with the mind of concentration:  a particular state of awareness that is penetrating, unified and focused, yet also open and permeable.  This quality of consciousness, though not easily put into words, is instantly recognizable.”
~ Robert Reese “Bert Ihlenfeld” in Focus Magazine 10/09

Lyrics of the Day:
“I run my life
Or is it running me
Run from my past
I run too fast
Or too slow it seems
When lies become the truth
That’s when I run to you”

Quote of the Day:
“Religion is the opposite of intimacy.”
~Jim Burgen of Flatirons Community Church

Lyrics of the Day:
“We bury our love in the wintery grave
A lump in the snow was all that remained.
But we stayed by its side as the days turned to weeks
And the ice kept getting thinner with every word that we’d speak.

And when spring arrived
We were taken by surprise when the floes under our feet bled into the sea
And nothing was left for you and me.

We’re not the same, dear,
And it seems to me
There’s nowhere we can go
With nothing underneath.
And it saddens me to say
But we both know, well, it’s true
That the ice was getting thinner
Under me and you.
The ice was getting thinner
Under me and you.”
~ “The Ice is Getting Thinner” by Death Cab for Cutie

Quote of the Day:

Lyrics of the Day:
“She said she didn’t believe
It could happen to me
I guess we’re all one phone call from our knees

We’re gonna get there soon

If every building falls
And all the stars fade
We’ll still be singing this song
The one they can’t take away

I’m gonna get there soon
She’s gonna be there too
Cryin’ in her room
Prayin’ oh, Lord come through

We’re gonna get there soon”
