Free to Run: And Then I Ate A Reese's Peanut Butter Cup...

Song for Bill: "Your Time to Fly"

Time to Fly

You took the call to serve and you took to the sky gave your time to the lesser kind lived by faith and not by sight I feel the need to follow you 'cause you followed Christ... You made a plan for your life and then you raised a family gave your love to friends in need stood for what you believed I feel the need to follow you 'cause you followed Christ... Your time to fly to reach the heavens and know the joy that's waiting there. Your time to fly, to finally know the answers we were always searching for. Your time to fly, to follow Christ in ways we can only dream on earth... I feel the need to follow you... 'cause you followed Christ You had a sense of selflessness, a quiet air of peace We knew that you were listening the way you paused when we would speak. I feel the need to follow you 'cause you followed Christ... Did you know that very instant that you had gotten your reward? Did you sit there waiting patiently as you were finally welcomed home? And was it you who spoke up first to God or did He simply look and... "hmmm..." I wish I could follow you 'cause you followed Christ, Your time to fly to reach the heavens and know the joy that's waiting there. Your time to fly, to finally know the answers we were always looking for. Your time to fly, to follow Christ in ways we can only dream on earth... I feel the need to follow you... 'cause you followed Christ.

My Right Now Song

Rock What You Got - Superchick

This one's for the beaten down
The ones who lost their rock and roll
Rise up you lost ones, claim your crown
You were born to rock inside your soul

Welcome misfits, orphans, all
The ones who feel they don't belong
You were made to rock, so stand up tall
Go rock the world and prove them wrong

Rock what you got
Rock what you got
Don't ever let them make you stop
Rock what you got
Light up the lot
No one can rock the way you rock

This one's for originals
Who strike out towards the great unknown
Fear not the missteps, take the falls
The rock you find will be your own

This one's for the beaten down
Who gave up on their rock and roll
Lift your eyes from what drags you down
You were born to rock inside your soul

I Got "Re"-Baptized on April 29, 2007!

Philippians 3:5-11 If anyone else thinks he has reasons to put confidence in the flesh, I have more: circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee; as for zeal, persecuting the church; as for legalistic righteousness, faultless.

But whatever was to my profit I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them rubbish, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God and is by faith. I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead.

My "Favorite" Song

I Am Free - Jon Egan (Performed by Newsboys)

Through You the blind will see
Through You the mute will sing
Through You the dead will rise
Through You all hearts will praise
Through You the darkness flees
Through You my heart screams, I am free!

I am free to run
(I am free to run)
I am free to dance
(I am free to dance)
I am free to live for you
(I am free to live for you)
I am free!
(I am free!)

Through You the kingdom's come
Through You the battle's won
Through You I'm not afraid
Through You the price is paid
Through You there's victory
Because of You my heart screams
I am free
I am free

Who the Son sets free is free indeed.
Who the Son sets free is free indeed.

My Life Song

Legacy - Nichole Nordeman

I don't mind if you've got
something nice to say about me
And I enjoy an accolade like the rest
You could take my picture
and hang it in a gallery
Of all who's who and so-n-so's
that used to be the best
At such'n'such ... it wouldn't matter much
I won't lie, it feels alright
to see your name in lights
We all need an 'Atta boy' or 'Atta girl'
But in the end I'd like to
hang my hat on more besides
The temporary trappings of this world

I want to leave a legacy
How will they remember me?
Did I choose to love?
Did I point to You enough
to make a mark on things?
I want to leave an offering
A child of mercy and grace
who blessed your name unapologetically
Leave that kind of legacy

I don't have to look too far
or too long awhile
To make a lengthy list of all that I enjoy
It's an accumulating
trinket and a treasure pile
Where moth and rust,
thieves and such
will soon enough destroy

Not well traveled, not well read,
not well-to-do or well bred
Just want to hear instead,
"Well Done" good and faithful one...
