a time to grieve; a time to dance

Have you ever found a glistening coin on the bed of a flowing stream? You point at it but your friend isn't quite able to see it. Or maybe your friend is pointing at something at a short distance and, for all your neck-craning, you can't quite see what it is.

This blog is exactly that. This is me pointing at something that I know is there and hope you'd see, too. Whether it's at a golden mask at the bottom of the well or an eagle soaring high in the sky, I wish you Happy Looking!

Times, Tenth Avenue North

I know I need You
I need to love You
I love to see You, but it's been so long

I long to feel You
I feel this need for You
I need to hear You
Is that so wrong?

Now You pulled me near You
When we're close I fear You
Still I'm afraid to tell You
All that I've done

Are You done forgiving?
Or can you look past my pretending?
Lord, I'm so tired of defending
What I've become
What have I become?

I hear You say:
My love is over, it's underneath
It's inside, it's in between
The times you doubt Me; when you can't feel
The times that you've questioned, 'Is this for real?'
The times you've broken, the times that you mend
The times you hate Me and the times that you bend
Well My love is over, it's underneath

It's inside, it's in between,
These times you're healing
And when your heart breaks
The times that you feel like you've fallen from grace
The times you're hurting
The times that you heal
The times you go hungry and are tempted to steal
In times of confusion and chaos and pain
I'm there in your sorrow under the weight of your shame
I'm there through your heartache
I'm there in the storm
My love, I will keep you by My power alone
I don't care where you've fallen; where you have been
I'll never forsake you
My love never ends, it never ends.

I recently heard this song over Klove.com. I needed to hear it. I needed to believe that God's love stays with me at all times.
