We are living in an ever greater political world, and an even smaller (by that i mean proportionally) christian world. and with so much happening in politics thisweek i figured id post a few song lyrics. The first is a song by pink, in the form of a letter she speaks to George Bush. she was brave enough to be one of the first to stand up and say hey man thats enough!

Dear Mr President
come take a walk with me
lets pretend were just two people and
your not better than me
id like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly


what do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street
who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep
what do you feel when you look in the mirror
are you proud????

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
how do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
how do you walk with your head held high
can you even look me in the eyes
and tell me why


dear me president
were you a lonely boy
are you a lonely boy
are you a lonely boy
how can you say
now child is left behind
were not dumb and were not blind
theyre all sitting in your cells
while you pave the way to hell

what kind of father would take his own daughters rights away
and what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay
i can only imagine what the first lady had to say
youve come a long way from whisky and cocaine

how do you sleep while the rest of us cry
how do you dream while a mother has no chance to say goodbye
how do you walk with your head held high
can you even look me in the eye
and tell me why



Let me tell you about hard work
minnimum wage with a baby on the way
let me tell you about hard work
rebuilding your house after the bombs to them away
let me tell you about hard work
building a bed out of a cardboard box
let me tell you about hard work
hard work
hard work
you dont know nothing about hard work
hard work
hard work


how do you sleep at night
how do you walk with your head held high
dear mr president
youd never take a walk with me
would you??

Its such an incredible song i think, and i think it really details that political figures ignorance of how much earthly power they have, and they never seem accountable to anyone do they?? Well let me tell you right now they are accountable to GOD, just as i am, just as you are, the president, prime minister and the people who shine their shoes are ALL accountable to GOD. so just lay your life down to hiim, open your heart to him, because if you do, you will reap the rewards of his love,and they are worth more than you can ever dream of!!

Sorry for the rush, its just i have swine flu n i feel pretty rotten!!

Lots of love x x x

Hmmm....

Do you ever feel like your working hard with no reward? Like you give your heart and soul just for a door to be slammed in your face? Like you will never be able to truely connect with people, to inspire them, to help them, as if you are a bit of a spare part? Well i say this to you, trust in the Lord and push on!! Miracles happen everyday even if you dont get to see them, hearts are changed before you are able to witness salvation. Let the Lord do his work as you also do yours. Remember that as you witness in the name of the Lord, he does not just sit back, he creates oppertunity, and he will flood you with them, reach out! be brave!

I have just witnessed the biggest transformation i have ever seen! I know a man who was a church go-er, part of a god orientated family who turned on the church. (many people do this, loose God when they are young and please remember thats ok, just keep praying!Trust in God)
When i first new hiim, he wouldnt even let me talk to him about it! couldnt even bring the church up, i got dirty looks and horrid comments whenever i mentioned Jesus! 2 years later, He just came back, just walked back into church one day, at my side and all i could do was cry and praise God. I dreamed of the day but never had faith that it would actually happen, i didnt trust enough. But yet again God loves and cares about what happens to each of us. This man just let god into his heart, just a tiny bit on one day (saturday) and sunda he was at church.

Its led me to believe that you can close your heart to jesus but you can never close your eyes and ears to his works, you will always see and hear jesus in everyday life! The Lord and his blessings are around us take heed from them and give thanks!

Have you ever disliked a person but had to kind of "put up" with them being around? Have you ever felt like they had a hold over something that is very precious to you, something very close to your heart, ever felt like you cannot understand why they are there? I felt like that recently. I hold a place very close to my heart and could not understand why someone was so heavily involved as they werent oging to be here for very much longer, i even felt pushed out, so much so that i thought about not following my heart. But this week i realised that this person evidently has something god wanted to place inside this part of our church, she obviously has something to give, even if it was just for a short amount of time it is evidenly enough. Think of jesus, his ministry may have been relatively short but look at his impact!!! So of course she has a role. I learnt so much from that, not to be selfsih, and to reaelly open my heart, for i shouldnt be closing it to the world, i should open it and embrace the world, thats the only way i can make a difference! Im sory for the way i may have treated this person, i relaly am, ive learned alot from it.

Recognise your mistakes and recify them, you may learn something!
