Masquerading Goodness

Some things you just can't blog about. And that's a shame, since blogging helps me process life. Maybe someday. But for now, I'll share the words of the song that is playing on repeat in my apartment.

Heavenly Father, you always amaze me

Let your kingdom come in my world and in my life

Give me the food I need to live through today

And forgive me as I forgive the people that wrong me

Lead me far from temptation

Deliver me from the evil one


I look out the window the birds are composing

Not a note is out of tune or out of place

I walk to the meadow and stare at the flowers

Better dressed than any girl on her wedding day


So why do I worry?

Why do I freak out?

God knows what I need

You know what I need


Your love is

Your love is

Your love is strong


The kingdom of the heavens is now advancing

Invade my heart, invade this broken town

The kingdom of the Heavens is buried treasure

Would you sell yourself to buy the one you've found?


Two things you told me

That you are strong

And you love me

Yes, you love me


Your love is

Your love is

Your love is strong


Our God in Heaven

Hallowed be thy name

Above all names

Your kingdom come

Your will be done

On earth as it is in heaven

Give us today our daily bread

Forgive us weary sinners

Keep us far away from our vices

And deliver us from these prisons....

At the end of the day, this is all I need to know. That God is for me. So somehow everything God is doing in my life is good. It's just sometimes goodness that I don't recognize because it looks suspiciously like things I fear.

But why do I worry? Why do I freak out? God knows what I need. You know what I need.
