Sunday Reminising

Before The Throne of God Above
Before the throne of God above, I have a strong and perfect plea
A great High Priest whose name is love, Who ever lives and pleads for me
My name is graven on his hands, my name is written on His heart
I know that while in heav'n He stands, no tongue can bid me thence depart
No tongue can bid me thence depart

When satan tempts me to despair, and tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him there, Who made an end of all my sin
Because the sinless Savior died, my sinful soul is counted free
For God the Just is satisfied, to look on him and pardon me
To look on him and pardon me

 Behold Him there is the Risen Lamb, My perfect spotless Righteousness
The great unchangeable I Am, the KIng of Glory and of grace
One with Himself I cannot die, my soul is purchased by his blood
My life is hid with Christ on high with Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God
One with Himself I cannot die, my soul is purchased by his blood
My life is hid with Christ on high with Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God

This song made me just about cry! Our music director sang this acappella during Communion and the the feeling that was put in to it screamed unworthiness and utter longing for the perfection of Jesus.


I was going through some old school notes (Both the kind that I made that pertains to the lecture and my notes to my friends) when I found my Misson Statement made for Mrs. R's leadership class 2-2 1/2 years ago. It's still pretty close. I've added some to it since then and edited wrong information (the font in Italic is the add on).

                                                            Mission Statement
 My mission is to be the best person I can be with God's help. I would like to Five years from now be at St. Marys College College of Southern Maryland pursuing a career ans a physical therapist's assistant. I also want to after a brief term of service with the navy as a corpsman, become a Christian filmmaker. I want to champion the rights of a family as a unit of, Father, Mother, and Children (both biological and adopted) in the media. I will also be active in doing THE WORD now, not just in the future. I will help other orphans find their identity and encourage them. I will go and transform into "a nice young lady" that loves kids, that is active in helping the community, that is unmatched in her ardor to do things, and that loves the LORD. I will be unforgettable.

Looking back on this I have no idea what was running through my mind as I wrote this. I think I might have had a list of words to use and knowing my flair for the theatrical, I used the biggest  and smartest sounding ones possible. That might explain the "I will be unforgettable" part...Any way speaking of things I want to do a wrench got thrown in my immediate future plans. I was surfing the internet for apartments, don't ask it's just another one of my personal and odd , not making much sense plans that I'm oh so fond of making, the boarding house (yes those still exist) is called Thompson-Mackward Hall. It's a single bedroom on capital hill  that cost  $925 a month but includes breakfast and Dinner and a whole list of things like free phone line and nice house rules! It started out as a christian boarding house for young girls who wanted to work at the capital. Now I can't decide if I want to stay here untill I graduate high school and have a few college classes under my belt, take a year off work at some cute little shop in D.C. while getting my foot in the art community. Then go back to college with the navy and serve 3-4 years. So many choices and I don't have my head clear enough to think.
