I must not be the only one...Sara Groves got "IT", too!

I know that I broke the pattern and didn't blog yesterday. I had to figure out some really high tech stuff so I could do this post. Trust me...it took an entire 36 hours to figure it out. I hope that it will actually work. I wanted to share this song by Sara Groves that completely speaks for me. I felt that it was very appropriate for this entry to follow the previous two. It is so cool when God allows your feelings to come through another person. She totally put my feelings to music.

Just Showed Up by Sara Groves and Joel Hanson

Spending my time sleep walking
Moving my mouth but not saying a thing
Hoping the changes would take by working their way from the outside in
I was in love with an idea
Preoccupied with how a life should appear
Spending my time at the surface repairing the holes in the shiny veneer
There are so many ways to hide
There are so many ways not to feel
There are so many ways to deny what is real
And I just showed up for my own life
And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright
I'm going to live my life inspired
Look for the holy in the common place
Open the windows and feel all that's honest and real until I'm truly amazed
I'm going to feel all my emotions
I'm going to look you in the eyes
I'm going to listen and hear until it's finally clear and it changes our lives
There are so many ways to hide
There are so many ways not to feel
There are so many ways to deny what is real
And I just showed up for my own life
And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright
Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
Oh the glory of God is man fully alive
There are so many ways to hide
There are so many ways not to feel
There are so many ways to deny what is real
And I just showed up for my own life
And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright


Guess what the tech stuff didn't work so great for me. Hope you enjoyed the lyrics!
