"This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose"
Im sitting here at 2:40am and my iTunes is on shuffle and this song by Switchfoot came up. I have never thought of these lyrics this way before. But this is probably the most inspiring song ever.
Like I now realize that I am going to reach my dream no matter what people say to me and what obstacles are in my way. I now know that people are only human. Ya know?
Little kids believe in Santa. They have that faith that there is actually a guy in a red suit who flys around and gives gifts. I want that kinda of faith. I want to believe in "Santa". I think if we all knew that we were gonna reach your dream the world would be a very different place.
Well, Im gonna go try and sleep, I'll probably read this later when im actually awake and think its retarded.
I play guitar in my youth band at church. As I look out at everyone I see some people worshiping God and really going after him and THAT IS AWESOME!
But then yet again I see people that just stand there like a bump on a log. They stand there and just wait for the music to be done so they can go back and sit down.
Now when I'm up there and I see that is VERY discouraging.
Think of it this way. You have the oppourtunity to get a millions dollars and all you have to do is give, say, one dollar. So when you give a little you get ALOT. It's that simple. You worship God and press into him and you will be suprises what you get back.
At first it'll be weird(maybe) but the benifet is un-real!
Plus you're in church so who's gonna say anything?
I mean come on if people in other countries die every day because of their faith in Jesus Christ we should be able to raise our hands and clap with the music. I mean it's a shame to think of it really. You are missing out on something because you are embarassed.
We gotta move on make new tracks so more people will follow.
And for allf you people that are keep moving. Move faster!
You guys (and girls) are the sparks that are gonna start the fire.
But In order for the sparks to make a fire they have to get to the more flamable wood. Sparks have to be placed right so the fire will ignite. So next time you are worshiping encouarge others to join you. Jump around. Clap your hands. Sing loud. So you create more sparks.
Be the Spark the Starts the Fire.
( If this offends you than maybe you need to do something so it doesn't )
