• Voice of Truth;  Casting Crowns
  
  Oh what I would do to have
  The kind of faith it takes
  To climb out of this boat I'm in
  on to the crashing waves
  
  To step out of my comfort zone
  Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
  And He's holding out His hand
  
  But the waves are calling out my name
  And they laugh at me
  Reminding me of all the times
  I've tried before and failed
  The waves they keep on telling me
  Time and time again. "Boy, you'll never win!"
  "You'll never win!"
  
  Chorus:
  But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
  The Voice of Truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
  And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"
  Out of all the voices calling out to me
  I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth
  
  Oh what I would do to have
  The kind of strength it takes
  to stand before a giant
  With just a sling and a stone
  
  Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
  Shaking in their armor
  Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand
  
  But the giant's calling out my name
  And he laughs at me
  Reminding me of all the times
  I've tried before and failed
  The giant keeps on telling me
  Time and time again. "Boy you'll never win!"
  "You'll never win!"
  
  Chorus:
  But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
  The Voice of Truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
  And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"
  Out of all the voices calling out to me
  I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth
  
  But the stone was just the right size
  To put the giant on the ground
  And the waves they don't seem so high
  On top of them lookin' down
  I will soar with the wings of eagles
  When I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
  Singing over me
  
  Chorus:
  But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
  The Voice of Truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
  And the Voice of Truth says, "This is for My glory"
  Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me)
  I will choose to listen and believe-
  
  I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of Truth
  
  I will listen and believe
  I will listen and believe the Voice of truth
  I will listen and believe
  Cause Jesus you are the voice of truth
  And I will listen to you, you are-

  I scared myself today, and I listened to lies in my head.   I lost my focus, and suddenly missing shoes became more important then so many other things.

  
  

  I'm taking an online break.   I can't say when I'll be back.  It might be tomorrow.  It might be never.   I'm doing some serious praying.   And as I drove into town in between tears, and fears.  This song came on on the radio.  I'm in the process of downloading it on another window.  Man it hit me over the head, and between the eyes.

  
  

  God gave it to me.

  
  

  And then at my chiropractors.  Remember she's a childhood friend?  She listened to me, and I didn't share all, just some.  She massaged, adjusted, and then she had me sit down, and she prayed with me.

  
  

  The rest of the day was a lot of fun.  The kids and I enjoyed ourselves, we had our Cubbies closing ceremony, and we had some good giggles on the way home.  

  
  

  My number one priority in my life is my God.

  
  

  My number two priority is my husband.

  
  

  My number three priority are my children.

  
  

  I've completely lost track of the priorities.  And things are going to change.  Period.  God has forgiven my burst of anger, and so has my very very generous son.   And so I'll be back, or not.
