Song of the Day:
"My Love Hasn't Grown Cold" (By: Bethany Dillon)


You shake your head
What is so hard to believe?
When you are in your bed
I sing over you the sweetest things
Because oh, my love does not tire
I'm awake when the moon is full
And I know the times when you feel lost
And you just aren't sure

Lo and behold
My love hasn't grown cold
For you

You cold steal away in the middle of the night
And hide in the light of day
While you cloak yourself in the darkest lies
But oh my love, it swims in the deepest oceans of fear
And as soon as you lower your head I am here

Lo and behold

My love hasn't grown cold
For you

If only you could see
How heaven stills when you speak
I know all your days
And I have wrapped you in mystery
And oh, my love for you
Is as wide as the galaxies
Just hold out your hand and close your eyes
And come be with me

Lo and behold
My love hasn't grown cold
For you

Quote of the Day: from "Do You Think I'm Beautiful?"
(By: Angela Thomas)

"We all pretend for a while or for a lifetime. But pretending is not living. It's a subcategory of living. It's like wearing a designer snow parka and sitting in the lodge but never really skiing down the mountain. When we pretend, we are alive and present, maybe sipping hot chocolate by the fire, but missing the bredth and depth that God intended for our lives. We miss the quiet ride up in the ski life, the beauty of the vista, the thrill of fresh powder, the wind in our hair, and that YEAH, I JUST CONQUERED A MOUNTAIN! rush at the bottom of the run. In pretending, there is safety, a middle-of-the-road, stick-with-the-flavor-you-know kind of living. But I believe that God meant for life to take our breath away, sometimes because of the sheer joy of it all and sometimes because of the severe pain. To choose living over pretending means that we will know both."
