I think I did this a long time ago, but it's nice to bring it out again--it's fun to see the responses.

Your Life Soundtrack
IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
So, here's how it works:
1. Open your library (iTunes, Winamp, Media Player, iPod, etc)
2. Put it on shuffle
3. Press play
4. For every question, type the song that's playing
5. When you go to a new question, press the next button
6. Don't lie and try to pretend you're cool...
7. When you're finished, repost so other people can do it!

I put up a new song of the moment, finally found a way to get the new Rascal Flatts' song "Take Me There" on this blog, yay! :-p Warning: if you don't like country music, you have been alerted otherwise.

Also a new widget from ITunes letting people know what you're listening to & what's in your library currently...now people can see how crazy eclectic my music taste really is.

I haven't been able to find another song of the moment yet, but this is something new and exciting, if you're into country music and like the Rascal Flatts. (Which I do, sorry for those who don't like country, I was raised on it.) This is their new single, "Take Me There," which is off of their new album Still Feels Good that is being released on September 25th. I'm hoping to get to see them in concert when they come to Raleigh in August. **crosses fingers**

I've seen what you can do...

"I've seen what you can do
I've seen you make miracles
And hopeless dreams come true
You made the heaven and the stars
Everything
C'mon how hard can it be
To make her love me..."
--Rascal Flatts

Miracles are just that...miraculous events that happen to people. How often have I heard from people talking that they "hope for a miracle" to solve a situation that they can't fix themselves? That phrase is uttered so often, sometimes taken more lightly than is necessary.

I know that I have been guilty of asking God to work miracles in my life for situations that were not appropriate or worthy of having His grace to save. If something happens, I need to be more cognizant of the fact that He wants it to be this way because he knows what the larger plan is for my life. I tend to forget many times to just trust in Him and that He knows what is best for me. So I end up trying to take everything into my own hands and it usually ends up as a mess. One of the best things I have heard regarding this is "Let go and let God." I think if we could all try to let go of the things that bother us, even the littlest concerns and take confidence in the fact that someone with more power to handle our situations will take care of everything, then we'd all breathe a little easier.
