As I listened to boyce avenue's acoustic covers today I've realized even more how much I miss 'wasting time' on my piano or strumming a guitar to my own way. I miss playing a string of chords 'just because it sounds beautiful' and I miss having my thoughts run about as I play melodies that just go on and on on the keys of my piano. Sure they're not at a level of amazing or perfect but that's just how I like to spend my alone time. Just bumming with sounds that my mind and heart creates. Not bothered about people's expectations of me or rehearsing over and over again a piece I cannot perfect as I panic and get frustrated when I play the same mistakes repeatedly.
A friend posted about a note on how she's been an amazing blessing being a volunteer to teach music to Sudanese children who want to play music so badly. Even if there was just one student,that made her day. And it got me thinking..."lynn, you don't have to be who people expect you to be even if its out of their good intentions for you". There's a reason I'm doing what I'm doing and yes it is going to be tough and the competition out there is so great and 'everyone's doing it nowadays' BUT, there's a God out there who will open the Right door for me.
Uni starts next week!!!!! Year 3 here I come. *deep breaths*
IT IS A LAND THE LORD YOUR GOD CARES FOR; THE EYES OF THE LORD YOUR GOD ARE CONTINUALLY ON IT FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR TO ITS END (Deut. 11:12).......... THEREFORE DO NOT WORRY ABOUT TOMORROW, FOR TOMORROW WILL WORRY ABOUT ITSELF. EACH DAY HAS ENOUGH TROUBLE OF ITS OWN. (Matt 6:34)

Day for love?
Just great. I shall remember today as the day I woke up with cramps, scrambling around looking for my uphamol pill. =( Not cool.

Alone again, naturally
Yes, she was right. I am lonely. Just sometimes. But it's true.
This song is a good reminder that when all is not around me, Jesus is.
This song is a good reminder that when all is not around me, Jesus is.
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
Keep my heart alive
Only You can save me when my world is breaking right before my eyes
Jesus keep my heart alive
Keep my heart alive
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
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
Keep my heart alive
Only You can save me when my world is breaking right before my eyes
Jesus keep my heart alive
Keep my heart alive
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
