Quotes
"... we may have a duty to rescue a drowning man and, perhaps, if we live on a dangerous coast, to learn lifesaving so as to be ready for any drowning man when he turns up ... But if anyone devoted himself to lifesaving in the sense of giving it his total attention -- so that he thought and spoke of nothing else and demanded the cessation of all other human activities until everyone had learned to swim - he would be a monomaniac. The rescue of drowning men is, then a duty worth dying for, but not worth living for. ... He who surrenders himself without reservation to the temporal claims of a nation, or a party, or a class is rendering to Caesar that which, of all things, most emphatically belongs to God: himself." C.S Lewis The Weight of Glory

What is truth?
What is truth?
Why do we play games?
Where is your light?
Where is your help in the midst of this?
I'm sure I'm crazy
Why do I see things differently?
Where is your guiding?
Oh God I am so insignificant in you vast universe.
I am a sinner
You are so holy
I feel you so near
I feel you guiding
I feel your presence, I pray other will too!
I pray you break this gridlock
I pray you free us from our chains
I pray you share you love far and wide
I pray you change our hearts
I pray we will see our dependence on you!
New International Version (NIV)
John 8
12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
Matthew 11
28“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Proverbs 3:5-6
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.
