Go and Be

Just to let everyone know, the blog address is "goandbe" because it is the title of a song that is important to me.

Go and Be is a song by Audio Adrenaline
and in a way its a lifesong of sorts for me

Here are the lyrics:

you're like a letter that's never mailed
you're like a hammer without a nail
you've been standing in this place for far too long

you come to the table and you get fed
then you hide it inside your head
so why not open up and start to run

(chorus)
go and be
nothing less than you
'cause you begin in Him
He'll show you what you need to know
to go and be
every single day
go and be

you're like a winner without a prize
like a bird without a sky
you're not into the race until you run

so run with your life and you will find
all the things that you leave behind
don't mean that much when everything's brand new

go and be
nothing less than you
cause you begin in Him
He'll show you what you need to know
to go and be
every single day
who you are in Him
go and be

will you be the one
to come and see
will you be the one
to go and be

go and be
nothing less than you
cause you begin in Him
He'll show you what you need to know
to go and be
every single day
who you are in Him
one who loves as Jesus loves

now go and be
nothing less than you
go and be
nothing less than true
would you come and see
all there is to be
come and see
go and be

(I will go... I'm goin' now... I'll be goin' now...)

Little life, big world

Life is short.

It took a song by Ginny Owens the other day, along with some other events in my life to realize that we need to live in the moment as much as possible, that we need to take chances and make our dreams come true.

So in other words I turned my deposit in to study abroad in Scotland for 5 weeks this summer. I'm thrilled that I am taking advantage of this opportunity, and I can't wait until July gets here.
