this time aroundI have a lot to learn. Constantly, I’m reminded of this.
- Brandon and I have been studying Mark, and I have been amazed at what a great man God is making him. He has been so patient, and understanding. Brandon has been teaching me what it means to encourage. For those of you who don’t know him, he is very shy, and very serious and sometimes that comes off as him being a jerk, but i assure you, he isn’t. Brandon is the most self-denying, compassionate person you will most likely ever meet. I love him for it. The Lord is faithful. Brandon is wonderful. I’m the problem.
- It’s almost like i can’t just trust a good thing when I’ve got it. I”m constantly making drama, getting angry, being a butt-head. I’m a hand full and I know it AND I’m crazy complicated (and it’s unnecessary). I think it’s wonderful that God made Brandon the way He did b/c he’s the only person who can deal with me and yet still think I’m great. I have been learning that I need authority, I need to be reprimanded, I need to be encouraged, purged toward the goal of Christ, I need someone to rule over me. I am nothing without Christ, and His grace. I am made complete by my husband. If you took all of Brandon’s amazingness and some of mine (and discarded the complications of being Leah) then that would seriously be the very best, coolest, most terribly brilliant person EVER.
- ok enough ramblings. I love my husband. I love my Daddy and I’m glad he raised me the way he did. I’m glad he was hard on me. I’m glad my husband is learning how to be hard on me too. I’m crazy for admitting this b/c my flesh fights it daily. Thank GOD for his grace and for teaching the men in my life how to be gracious.
here is a song I wrote today about all this. It’s just a rough recording…
i love you… God couldn’t have given me a better woman… you’re beautiful in every way… i know i’m cheesy, but who cares…
thats also an amazing song…
I’ve only gotten to listen to about 50 seconds of your song, but I like what I heard. I will come back later and comment for real.
Listened to the full song. I like the chorus a lot, especially lyrically. I’m glad you write songs.
I think that you should do a concert, I will be the pyrotechnic so we can have fireworks going off left and right. We will try not to catch anything on fire, but the truth is that you can’t fight destiny, unless of course you want to(contradiction).
I love that song, it’s so pretty! You have SUCH an amazing voice! Anyhow, it’s cool that you can admit that it’s great for someone to be hard on you even though everything goes against it and such, I know I definitely wouldn’t be able to take it, haha. Then again, I have so much growth to come through, so who knows, I may end up the same way!
I’d love to be critique partners! You can view a lot of my writing over at my writing blog, which is the one I’ve named “The Scroll of Rhondelough.” I think you’ve seen it since it’s on your blogroll. Also, I’ll probably be posting some music occasionally on my “C for Catharsis” blog, but if you wanna check out my myspace music, it’s http://www.myspace.com/yellowivy
I definitely need a song critic to help me improve. And so you’d be perfect at that!
