Amazing, Because It Is

By annie

Amazing, Because It Is -The Almost

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite songs. I understand the sentiment of  “I NEED you” – the guy singing gets it.

It being Sunday today, I went to church as I often don’t. Something about it seemed appealing this morning. Despite my rough night.  Despite my lack of makeup.  Despite my whore hair. Despite wearing workout clothes, (OK I changed to jeans last minute).  I needed familiar.

Amazing grace. How sweet the sound. That saved a wretch like me.

My tribe was there this morning.  Though I would see them later in the day, standing shoulder to shoulder and singing songs of praise was something I needed.

I once was lost but now I’m found.

No matter how many days I wake up, there are still days I  wonder “WTF?”  How did I get here?  Why did I do that? Why do I let people treat me that way?

was blind but now I see. I just wanna see.

I NEED YOU

Again

I need your grace.

Again

and not that I needed to go to church to get it.  It comes whenever I ask.  Where ever I am when I need it.  It’s amazing.  Because it is.  God is not contained in the four walls of the church.  He permeates everything, always.  He is the light in my darkness.  The lamp to my feet.  The light to my path.

I NEED you.

Again.

Still.

Always.

Annie – I can’t get into my Twitter account – my stupid mommy brain has forgotten the password and Twitter can’t seem to figure out how to email it to me! Those posts you see are from my phone. But I wanted to say hi and thank you for checking up on me.
All is well. I think I am getting ready to start blogging again, I just need to procrastinate a little while longer!

Annie, I love this.

and I agree with every last word here.

and I don’t have any more words, except to recommend if you are not familiar with “The Distance” by Live to listen to it.
