Hymn of the week #7

1. Morning dawn had arisen,
   Abraham saddled his donkey,
   Took his two young men with him
   And Isaac, his beloved son.
   Lord, You're God's only Son
   And of God begotten
   "This is My beloved Son, in whom
   I am well-pleased."

2. To his young men he said then,
   "Stay and we'll return to you."
   To Moriah he led him,
   His son Isaac, just them two.
   Just the son and the father,
   Speaking with one another.
   Isaac said, "My father!" Abraham
   said, "Here I am."

4. As You spoke with Your Father
   You bore the wood God laid on You;
   As a lamb to the slaughter
   Obedient to the death were You.
   Precious blood of a Lamb,
   Slain from when earth began,
   Laid Your life down for Your sheep, in love,
   that I might live.

4. Man of sorrows, I love You.
   From You men did hide their face.
   With no majesty to You,
   Despised, forsaken, and disgraced.
   For my sins You were crushed.
   Lord, I love You so much.
   Chastened, scourged and then pierced through, my griefs
   and sorrows bore.

5. Dead in sins and offenses,
   I'm a bruised reed—smoking flax.
   Yet to death You were given,
   For of Your sheep, You'd not lose one.
   Like the woman, I'd weep,
   Flow my tears at Your feet.
   Jesus Lord, I just love You—dear Lord,
   Jesus my Lord.

This is a great hymn because it tells a story of a man and his son and this is a picture of God with his son. Abraham gave his only son up to satisfy God's commandment, but he received back what was his, when God gave an offering up as a ram, caught in some bushes. I enjoy it because it has an impact on my daily life. I can consider that God loves me and that he wants the best for me, including dying for my sins, which are numerous and under the kingdom of Satan. Praise Christ! He can satisfy God's righteous requirement and I can become God's son!

Why every introvert should have facebook.

You don't talk to people. You are shy. Facebook gives you a way to connect that is unique in that you don't have to communicate with other people to know what's going on with them. For that reason, it caters to the introvert-stalker type and the extrovert-attention seeking type. To get the attention they crave is only a click away. I would recommend facebook.com to all my friends and family.

Last night on Earth

If this were my last night on earth. I'd like to thank everyone.

Thank you dad, for getting me to say Daddy as my first word, and for calling me pudding pie.

Thank you moms for putting up with me and sticking with me to the end.

Thank you Sayward for STILL loving me through my insanity and depression.

Thank you John for everything you've given me. I couldn't ask for a nicer person as a brother.

Thank you Grandma Coker for not giving in and not giving up. Now that's what I call spit n' vinegar.

Thank you Grandma Vaught for being stubborn and for your beliefs that everything will work out for good.

Ya'll are all important people in my life. And I appreciate you every day.

Hymn of the week #6

Seek ye first the kingdom of God
And His righteousness,
And all these things shall be added unto you.
Hallelu, Hallelujah!

Ask, and it shall be given unto you;
Seek and ye shall find.
Knock and it shall be opened unto you.
Hallelu, Hallelujah.

Man shall not live by bread alone,
But by every word
That proceeds from the mouth of God.
Hallelu, Hallulujah.

This song really made me think. How much of my life do I give to God? Do I seek Him? The answer is miserly: barely. Having a good relationship with God is important. I would like to speak to Him. Prayer. Set aside at least to talk a part of the day with him.

Also I'm wondering to anyone who likes reading, my mom is getting rid of a bunch of Christian literature and this is high grade spiritual stuff if anyone is interested. We just don't have room for it, bookcases being in short supply.
