Let's see how this goes....

So I have decided I want to write a blog. We will see how it goes, because I typically have a hard time sticking to extra activitites like this. But maybe it will become a hobby. My goal really is to have a place to write my feelings, spread the word of the Savior, and show how he affects and changes everything about my life. And hopefully by his Grace I can impact someone else's life and ultimately lead them to him. There are going to be ups and downs, I know, because walking with him isn't easy. But this life is much to precious to go without a memory of it left behind. Plus, I like the idea that someday my children could read what I had to say and where I was in my life. Maybe even it will answer some questions for them down the road. Now, I tend to ramble- so just bear with me and try to get the jist. I love music and sometimes that is the only way I can express my feelings, through song. So right now, this is the song that is touching my heart this week. It is so true, Jesus- Please keep my heart alive!

I'm so tired of politics and all this bad news
I'm so tired of chasing the moment instead of chasing You
I let the World wear me down, I'm desensitized

Jesus keep my heart alive, keep my heart alive
Only You can save me from a world that's breaking right before my eyes
Keep my heart alive

Take these empty "hallelujahs", and fill my lungs again
'Cause I want to sing, and I want to mean it
I want to feel again
And let the world hear the sound of something divine

Jesus keep my heart alive (Only You can save me),
Keep my heart alive (Only You can save me)
Only You can save me when my world is breaking right before my eyes

Jesus keep my heart alive (Only You can save me),
Keep my heart alive (Only You can save me)
Only You can save me when my hope is fading, and I'm losing the fight

And when the world wears me down,
You're my lifeline
You keep my heart alive (Only You can save me),

Jesus keep my heart alive (Only You can save me),
Keep my heart alive (Only You can save me)
Only You can save me when my world is breaking right before my eyes
Keep my heart alive (Only You can save me)
Oh, keep my heart alive (Only You can save me)
You're my only hope, when my world is fading before my eyes
Jesus keep my heart alive
Keep my heart alive

Sanctus Real, Keep My Heart Alive
