Christmas Time Again


The main point of this song is about getting together and being joyful, celebrating all that God has given us, especially His Son.  It encompasses all the festivities and fun people associate with this season while keeping the main thing the main thing.
 
"And it’s Christmas time again
Time to gather with your family and your friends
And thank God for His gift of Love
On Christmas"

Why I am who I am

This song by MIKESCHAIR, All I Can Do, and this verse, 1 Corinthians 15:10, have become my favorites this cross country season.
I very often get asked questions like, "How do you run so much/so fast/like running!?"
I only can supply one answer.
 
There is no way I would be where I am and doing what I am doing if I didn't have the Lord.  My life has changed so much as I have grown closer to Him.  I see so many opportunities that He has blessed me with.  Lately I have just been overwhelmed with the grace I've been given.  I don't deserve this life at all.  I still sin and screw stuff up every day, yet He still loves and forgives me and gives me opportunities to serve.  I am filled with so much joy and motivation for life!
 
I am fast (in others' opinions), I love my life, I am joyful all because God has given it to me to be used to bring Him glory.
 
"By the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace to me was not without effect.  No, I worked hard...yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me."  1 Corinthians 15:10
 
All I can do is thank You for this life I never deserve.  Wanna thank You for the grace I know I don't have to earn.  You love me, You love me, Your mercy is proof.  All I can do is say thank You.
