He knows your name...

We talked about a lot tonight, a lot of good stuff that could honor the name of the Lord in so many ways but we never seemed to get to actual action points it seemed like. Was our talk pointless? Was tonight worthless? What good came of it? It wasn't pointless or worthless. Some people needed to get some stuff off their chests and that was progress for them and I'm so proud of the vulnerability; now take it to the next step. Some really intense topics were brought up and discussed and new ideas blossomed; now we take it to the next step. Some baby arguments arose which is healthy but didn't really go anywhere; calm little grasshopper, don't let your anger and bitterness steer you away from the path of righteousness. I don't know, I really enjoyed tonight. I feel like God challenged the mess out of me just today alone and I took a lot away from tonight. These last couple days have been really rough in general, no questions asked, and I needed to be challenged like this today God, thank you. Sometimes situations in life knock us off our keister for whatever reason and instead of getting up, we sit there and get mad at the thing that knocked us over. I didn't know how not to be mad, no questions asked, but this song has really helped bring it home, ya know? That is where I'm at right now with everything.

Really?

If I wanted to talk about it, I would and I don't! If you didn't act that way, that would save the majority of us a lot of trouble. If you remembered who you are and where you come from, you'd be a lot happier. If I wasn't so selfish, I'd love you better. If I knew how to love you well, I would drop everything. If you realized your potential, you would surpass so many. If you didn't scare the heck out of me, maybe I wouldn't be on all these medicines. If I quit taking my medicine, no one would ever see me. If you truly understood the ramifications of your actions, I would hope that things would change. If we realized how far our words really went, we would change the way we talked. If trusting people wasn't so hard, we'd be bestfriends. If you didn't lie, it wouldn't hurt. If you loved me, I would respond differently. If we were on the same page, there wouldn't be so much chaos. If I were able to change circumstances, I would in a heartbeat. If it were possible, you'd be mine about 9 years ago. If I were able to cry, it would be a disaster. If feelings were nonexistent, we'd all be screwed. If I understood your love for me, I'd stand with arms high and heart abandoned.
