Lead, Kindly Light

Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see The distant scene; One step enough for me.

“Wonderwall” by Oasis — on repeat.

Today is gonna be the day
That they’re gonna throw it back to you
By now you should’ve somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don’t believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I’m sure you’ve heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don’t believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
I don’t know how

Because maybe
You’re gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You’re my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day?
But they’ll never throw it back to you
By now you should’ve somehow
Realized what you’re not to do
I don’t believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to you
I don’t know how

I said maybe
You’re gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You’re my wonderwall

I said maybe
You’re gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after an
You’re my wonderwall

Said maybe
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
You’re gonna be the one that saves me
You’re gonna be the one that saves me

“In Your Hands” by SonicFlood

Sometimes my prayers seem so empty
Your voice seems so far away
But in my pain I see You molding me
You are the potter, I’m the clay

In Your hands, for every storm there is a reason
In Your hands, there is a time for every season
Though my tears may fall, You hold me close
And love me through it all
In Your hands…

When the clouds form all around me
I know the rain will bring new life
With every trial just keep molding me
As your plan unfolds before my very eyes

You turn my weeping into dancing
You give my feet a place to stand
You will not turn away the asking
Even when Your ways are hard to understand

In Your hands, for every storm there is a reason
In Your hands, there is a time for every season
Though my tears may fall, You hold me close
And love me through it all
In Your hands…

Too Good to be True?

Maybe. Possibly.

I hope not.

Shared a plate of sushi among friends.

Talked the whole way back, sharing an umbrella in the rain.

Danced in the kitchen.

It’s everything I hoped it would be – and more.

And Then There Were Two…

No longer just two individual ones, but one two.

Suddenly life took on a new shape – it felt different. And looked different. Independence started to slowly, almost imperceptibly, evolve toward interdependence. A degree of freedom lost, but in exchange — the chance of a victory to be won.
