A Song I Heard on the RADio Tonight

as sung by Joan Baez

called

God is God
(written by Steve Earle,)

goes as such:



I believe in prophecy
Some folks see things not everybody can see
And once in a while they pass the secret along to you and me
And I believe in miracles
Something sacred burning in every bush and tree
We can all learn to sing the songs the angels sing

Yes, I believe in God
And God ain't me

I've traveled around the world
Stood on mighty mountains and gazed across the wilderness
Never seen a line in the sand or a diamond in the dust
And as our fate unfurls
Every day that passes I'm sure about a little bit less
Even my money keeps telling me it's God I need to trust

And I believe in God
But God ain't us

God of my little understanding don't care what name I call
Whether or not I believe doesn't matter at all

I receive the blessings
That every day on earth's another chance to get it right
Let this little light of mine shine and rage against the night
Just another lesson
Maybe someone's watching and wondering what I got
Maybe this is why I'm here on earth and maybe not

But I believe in God
And God is God

Fun Fact #8

Bento is one of the neatest ideas this... and that! side of Japan.



"Bentō (弁当 or べんとう, Bentō?) is a single-portion takeout or home-packed meal common in Japanese cuisine. A traditional bento consists of rice, fish or meat, and one or more pickled or cooked vegetables as a side dish." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bento



I never realized the habitual tendency to play with my food could ever be so justified!

Fun Fact #7

In my earlier years, I really fancied a tree frog as a pet. You have to feed them bugs, though, and I just couldn't bring myself to sacrifice so many innocent lives. Oh well!

I've got to just trust God.
Do my best, and trust God.
What more can we do?


This is going to be a great fall.

Fun Fact #6

A running plan is officially in the works! Dad gave me a watch for tracking my progress but I have to say I couldn't help but feel like I was forsaking my inner hippie as each little hook of Velcro latched into place.
But that's okay, because I'm excited about this running thang.
