#10 My Friend

In my head I’ll be the one to carry you into the sun, I know

To not jump ship, but break the odds, to discover the crypt of Noah and the Ark

On a Chariot we’ll be carried away

Exploring the Universe through time and space

Imma be best at everything, and Imma conquer lions standing in the ring

-There’s nothing I have seen that makes me believe in fantasy my friend

Yes, I’ve seen miracles, but magic is only for fools my friend

When she walked through that door today

I forgot who I was, I forgot my entire name

I hoped that she’d be interested,

But the way she moved led fear inside my brain

-There’s nothing I have seen that makes me believe in fantasy my friend

Yes, I’ve seen miracles, but magic is only for fools my friend

But she was real I swear, no magic could make such perfect hair my friend

When she creeps next to me, my belly leaps and my heart sings my friend

**Oh, love is real my friend

This love will take you to the end

Oh, love is real my friend

This love will take you to the end

Falling in love can be a strange thing… but, how do you know when you are truly “in love”

People will say, “When you know, you know.” I have heard this saying my whole life, and I thought I could force it on my own time. Needless to say, time does not care about me… Time cares about nothing, but the fact it keeps moving forward despite what event takes place. The Lord is outside of time. If your God is like my God, then we can agree that God is outside of time. If your God is money, then it is bound by the earth. If your God is yourself, then wait two hundred years and see if your God is still talked about… I refuse to take my chances down this road. I forever want My God to be almighty and above all things. I want ONE God. All I am, and all I have I give to the Lord. This is why Music comes first in my life. Music is my connection to God. When I play music is when I feel close with God. When I am playing music is the only time I feel like I am truly in the Will of the Father.

But I work. I am in school. I have my daily duties. In school we are talking about worship. A friend of a friend begins to talk about the biggest worship venues in the southeast United States. We all began to discuss venues, churches, and gathering places. He listed the three biggest SEC stadiums. You may already be familiar with them. College kids and families gather from all over to see their team play. The amount of money being poured into college sports and venues completely trumps what the church does to its community. I look at the city of Athens, GA. I look at Stanford Stadium. This is the greatest place of worship in Athens. This is also the poorest city in Georgia. Athens, GA is referred to as Sin City. Cougar Love has a presence there. It is not a big presence, but it is a presence. We are just getting started.
