Be Ye Glad!!

Often many times we go through life wondering whats next, how much longer can i take this, what more God? I know for me personally I have restless nights just as many of us do. The many nights I wonder how am I gonna get through school, is it worth it, I allow myself to get bogged down by the little things in life that shouldn't worry me. What is it you are bogged down with? Is it a family member you are worried about, a friend who's lost, or something small like am i gonna make it through this semester? It's the holiday season so we shouldn't be so caught up in the things of our lives and give back to others and God will bless us with so much more than we could ever imagine. Whatever the things in life that get you down don't fret as a special frieeeend of mine would say, "just try hard and love Jesus." This is very true but sometimes when we don't think we can make it and we get discouraged and we cry out to Jesus but still don't think our cry has been heard keep your heads up. Just like one of my favorite things in the world is to crest the bridge to Oak Island and look off in the distance and see that lighthouse and at that moment I thank my God for bringing me back home one more time. That lighthouse to me is lights on the rim of the water giving me hope and comfort in the trails of my life. Beyond that lighthouse is my home, my refuge, a refuge to many who come seeking shelter from the world and long to be in the presence of God. Our lives are nothing more than a piece of a puzzle and there's is no disease, struggles, or anything that is going to keep us taking our spot in God's puzzle. So keep your heads up in times of trials and praise constantly b/c we'll never go through anything we can't handle alone. Be ye glad in all that you do.

Yea ok so this is a bunch of rambling but I don't know maybe it makes sense somewhere along the lines for someone out there reading this. Some of that comes from listening to one of my fav. songs entitled Be Ye Glad by the Christian group Glad.

So yea life is good, just trying to get through school. I wish I could be getting outta here and graduating sometime soon, I am tired of taking test and crap. Oh well it's gonna be a while before I finally graduate. The girl, special frieeeend, my PUERTO RICAN! (LOL) i miss her lots and can't wait to spend more time with her. So thats what Im looking forward to about being home all break is that we get to spend lots of time together which is gonna be super awesome! Speaking of Christmas time, gosh holidays already where has this year gone? It has def. flown by it just seems like I was at the beach a few weeks ago lifeguarding. Ahh but it's about time to fill out the application again and reunion coming up at new years so it's gonna be another busy holiday season. I def have to get a jump start on all my christmas shopping b/c I won't be able to come Dec 18th when Im laid up for a few days. Ok Im done I think, other than to leave you with a little something you want to know, ________ turkey!


Be Ye Glad
In these days of confused situations.In these nights of a restless remorse,When the heart and the soul of the nation,lay wounded and cold as a corpse.From the grave of the innocent Adam,comes a song bringing joy to the sad.Oh your cry has been heard and the ransom,has been paid up in full, Be Ye Glad.
(Chorus)
Oh, Be Ye Glad, Be Ye Glad,Every debt that you ever hadHas been paid up in full by the grace of the Lord,Be Ye Glad, Be Ye Glad, Be Ye Glad.
From the dungeon a rumor is stirring.You have heard it again and again.But this time the cell keys are turning,and outside there are faces of friends.And though your body lay weary from wasting,and your eyes show the sorrow they've had.Oh the love that your heart is now tastinghas opened the gate, Be Ye Glad.
(Chorus)
So be like lights on the rim of the water,giving hope in a storm sea of night.Be a refuge amidst the slaughter,for these fugitives in their flight.For you are timeless and part of a puzzle.You are winsome and young as a lad.And there is no disease or no struggle,that can pull you from God, Be Ye Glad.
