PTL

This song doesn’t really relate to me, I had a great dad. But after going through the Josh McDowell conference on Sunday, I realize how important the love of a Father really is. You can totally feel the pain of the girl in this song and then you are overcome with the rush of hope that comes at the end. We, as humans, take so much for granted in this life. We have such limited vision as to what is really out there for us. But God provide all things.

As a child she remembers bits and pieces
But most of it she's chosen to blockout
cause daddy never treated her the right way
He didn't understand what lovin was about
So she's opened up her heart to the whole world
Hoping someone will come and ease the pain
She's on the edge of a fatal decision
And she's drowning in the middle of the rain
She's looking for the love she never had
Looking for the love she missed from dear old dad
The world is out to get her
And she is left fadin’ away
She starves herself to meet a certain standard
Because the world says she's got to look so good
but Her heart is being eaten on the inside
And she'd do anything to change it if she could
See a father's love is something that we all crave
But something that so few of us receive
It's funny that so many feel forgotten
When all we've got to do is just believe
She's looking for the love she never had
Looking for the love she missed from dear old dad
The world is out to get her
And she is left fadin’ away
Now even the best dads fail sometimes
Being human they can only do so much
If we can't rely on them to be perfect
It must mean that we were made for Holy touch
That's why Jesus is the Love we've never had
He is the Love and Way to dear old Dad
He is out to love us
Yes he is out to love us
You'll never go hungry when you put your trust in Him
He is out to love us, and take us to a place of peace and rest

Okay so, the last few days in a dash. Monday night = workouts, oh yeah! It was a date with Billy Blanks. I’m actually really excited about working out again. I’ll probably get over the excitement soon, but I will persevere! Hah. While I was kicking imaginary butt, Justin was with is “little Brother” Joey. They went and played laser tag. That boy really loves Justin, but unfortunately he hates to lose just as badly as him too, I see some conflict in the future, haha. Yesterday I finally got to eat lunch with Tori after our month long hiatus. It was refreshing. Oh but that wasn’t the end of my Tori-Sunday. We got to test drive cars together after work…….hhaha, all the men at the dealership where doing their hail mary’s after we got back! Hey, they shouldn't try to make conversation while we’re driving. I told them not to let me sit up front with her because with our powers combined we become even worse drivers than when we are alone……..who knew? Then it was back home getting ready for bowling night. Well the guys (Kurt and Justin) had a work night at Ferguson that lasted too extremely long so me and Toby opted for last year’s 2 hour season finale of CSI…….oh and it was GOOD. Then my little Jus came home and we relaxed the rest of the night. In case I haven’t said it in a while being on call is FOR THA BIRDS! Church with our kiddies tonight where Dennis is making a big announcement that I can’t discuss until a later date. If I told you, I’d have to kill you. And I’ll leave you with an FSU sophomore year throwback……..PTL (aka: Praise the Lord)!
