I wanted to post this new song that I LOVE! Carrie Underwood has a new album out and I love it :) I love all her albums but still…This one is called Play On…I love the lyrics. Check it out!
What you’re gonna do when the show is over
What you’re gonna sing when the song is ends
How you’re gonna cope when there is no closure
Where you’re gonna reach when the goal gets higher
How you’re gonna make it through
When you think you lost your chance
Play on when you’re losing the game
Play on ’cause you’re gonna make mistakes
It’s always worth the sacrifice
Even when you think you’re wrong
So play on
Even when the floodgates swing right open
Never let the current take you down, no
Even when you’re not sure where you’re going
Swimming through a mess and you can’t get out
Just going through the motions
Trying not to drown
Play on when you’re losing the game
Play on ’cause you’re gonna make mistakes
It’s always worth the sacrifice
Even when you think you’re wrong
So play on
Even through a storm on the darkest night
Don’t you ever give up the fight
Even when you feel you’re all alone
Play on when you’re losing the game
Play on ’cause you’re gonna make mistakes
It’s always worth the sacrifice
Even when you think you’re wrong
So play on
Yesterday at C3 was awesome! We’re still in the series: ‘The Sickness Within” and yesterday Pride was discussed. It definitely hit home to me… I just wrote about how at times I feel like I’ve got a handle on all my problems and I don’t want to bother God with it…. Sometimes I have the thinking of: ‘He’s got enough on His plate, I’ll just deal with this myself.’ And that isn’t trusting God fully… I’m so grateful for being a part of a church that is so real and authentic! I’m also so grateful for ALL the amazing people that make this movement happen every week! Seriously… it takes a lot of dedication and people who truly love Jesus and others… It’s humbling to look around at all the people who sacrifice each week to give of themselves and be a part of what God’s doing here. C3 truly is a family and I love all of these wonderful people!
Yesterday C3 also gave away a ton of backpacks full of school supplies to students in need! Amazing… This is truly what church is all about- reaching out and helping the community around you!
I got to meet tons of new students yesterday! I am pumped for our fall schedule of 413 (Our high school student community!) It’s gonna be a blast :) I hope all our students had a great first day back at school… Speaking of this… my sister started middle school today! She went from being in a small private school for all of elementary to a big public middle school… I’m hoping she has a really good day. I don’t think she’s too nervous but I sure am :)
Ok I think that’s all for now… I have like 682 loads of laundry to do that have been piling up… maybe a little bit of an exaggeration but still- it’s a lot :)
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28
This verse has been in my head for a few days… I am so grateful for this. It’s amazing to me that we can rest fully in Jesus- we can go to him when we’ve had enough, we’re exhausted- and he will take our burden and give us rest. Maybe it’s just me, but sometimes I find it so hard to not try to carry the “burden” myself….whatever it may be. Most of the time I feel like God’s got such bigger problems to deal with and in comparison to some, mine are so small. It’s almost like I think He can’t handle all the problems- so I think I’ll just take care of mine, myself… Wow is that wrong! It’s amazing how when I truly let Him carry the burden it gets so much lighter than it was… It definitely doesn’t mean we still won’t be weary… or that we’ll forget about those burdens… but I know for me, I can rest in the fact that Jesus has it- He’s got it under control and eventually it’ll all work out for His good!
Of course a little disclaimer… that thought process is always hard for me to reach! Whenever things happen I always go through days where I totally forget that Jesus has it- I go back to that “I’ve got to take care of this myself” mentality… Which only causes anxiety and stress for myself- and a definite lack of rest!
So I know I’ve been saying I’m going to post more pics from our Chicago trip… I figured I’d just post a link to look at them on facebook! :) Click HERE!
