...however, i consider my life worth nothing to me, if only i may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me-the task of testifying to the gospel of God's grace... [acts 20:24]

Deliver Me

Going to chapel 3x a week might get annoying after awhile, but today's chapel was really special, especially in light of what's been happening in Virginia.
We sang this song, and I love it so much so I thought I'd share the lyrics with you.

This is "Deliver Me" by David Crowder Band (or Sarah Brightman, if you prefer):

Deliver me out of the sadness
Deliver me from all the madness
Deliver me courage to guide me
Deliver me Your strength inside me

All of my life
I've been in hiding
Wishing there was someone just like You
Now that You're here
Now that I've found You
I know that You're the One to pull me through

Deliver me loving and caring
Deliver me giving and sharing
Deliver me this cross that I'm bearing

Oh, deliver me

Jesus, Jesus how I trust You
How I've proved You o'er and o'er
Jesus, Jesus precious Jesus

Deliver me
Come and pull me through
Come pull me through

"I Will Wait" by Jason Upton:

I will wait for you, Jesus
You're the sun in my horizon
All my hopes in you, Jesus
I can see you now arising

There's a wall that stands in front of me
That I know I just can't climb
And like an eagle you will carry me
Its just a matter of the time

I will wait for you, Jesus
You're the son in my horizon
All my hopes in you, Jesus
I can see you now arising

Evil armies all around me
I believe in the word that promises me
So I will wait another day

I will wait for you, Jesus
You're the son in my horizon
All my hopes in you, Jesus
I can see you now arising

I will wait for you
Oh I will wait for you

Oh the doubt may try to come in
The disillusions may try to come in
I believe oh Lord
In the word that you promised
I believe it will not end
I believe it will not go

I will wait for you, Jesus
You're the son in my horizon
All my hopes in you, Jesus
I can see you now arising

In other news, tomorrow morning bright and early I will be flying to Virginia. Yesterday morning my great-grandmother passed away. My father flew back from Kz this afternoon for the funeral. At first I wasn't going to go, but then one of my family members offered to pay for my plane ticket.
Please keep me and my family in your prayers. Also, please pray I can get this Bible paper done. It's due Tuesday, and I get back to MO late Monday night.
