Really Good Words

This just made my day guys. Here, we can see that people have found my writings blog by searching for a few things online. Interestingly enough, we can also see that my blog has some really good words. I guess it’s official now – I write some good stuff. Check out my really good words here.

Heartbeat

Heartbeat
by Bleach

It’s been a long long time since
Since I’ve spent some time with you
I’m seeing lonely moments
Seeing lonely truths
A distant tone has come to me
And now I find I’m missing
That old familiar tune
A song your heart has played me
A rhythm I once new

So lay me down at your feet
And sing the words that you know I need

Cause I’m here I want to hear your heartbeat
Please put your love around me
And just let me know
That you’re here
Now I’m an arms reach from you
From the lover of my soul

And so I’ll fight the current
I’ll fight the undertow
Help me swim away from
Where my weakness grows

This song is really well done. I hoped to write about it, but I’ll just say it speaks for itself.- Zach

It’s Late Again

It may not be the latest I’ve been up, but it’s still late. I was up some late nights this week. Yesterday I took a nap, the first one I’ve taken in possibly years. It messed me up. I mean, I had no idea what was going on when I woke up. I mean, I wake up, the sun is setting, and I’m in our apartment by myself and I don’t know where anybody is. So I’m alone and don’t have any idea what is happening, and just really did not have a single thing to do (except for homework, but it was Friday and I was really wiped out). To be honest, I was kinda (read, “very”) bummed, depressed, whatever that feeling was. Useless, maybe.

I suppose I could have called somebody, but to call and say, “Hey, Charlie’s gone and I’m a loser with nothing to do,” didn’t really sound appealing. So I read some stuff and I started feeling better, but still a bit thrown off from the nap. Then I wrote something and posted it on my writings blog.

Then I rearranged my room. Moved it all, my desk, my dresser, my bed on top of my dresser, the whole deal. It took quite a while by myself, but I’m fine with that. I didn’t really feel like being around people. Well, that’s somewhat true, because I know there are some people that I would have loved to be with. But it’s all good, because I just turned on some music and ended up really liking Bethany Dillon’s newer CD (Waking Up). Then I actually ended up writing two more things/poems. It felt good, being the second time I’ve ever written three in one day.

I don’t really know. I don’t know if I should spend time with songs or people in a way. Last night was good, just listening to her music and being by myself. Or did I just appreciate being away from something?

Today was different. Halo is not good for me. I had a good time today, sure, but I just can’t do that. Rocking out was awesome, but it probably wasn’t even for ten minutes. Hopefully I’ll have the chance again though, because it’s probably my most favorite thing in the world.

In Hope of the Glory

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

- Romans 5:1-5

God will be glorified. In the hope of the glory of God. This hope does not fail, for He will be glorified.

Rejoice. That’s what I need to do.
