Agency

Agency. That word rings in my ear so clearly. God in all his wisdom gave us choice and a free soul.

Why do I not live like I am free? Why do I hide away from my heavenly Father, who lavishly shows His love for us.

Lord, teach me to use my time for your glory and nothing less.


A New Law
Derek Webb

(vs. 1)
don’t teach me about politics and government
just tell me who to vote for
don’t teach me about truth and beauty
just label my music

don’t teach me how to live like a free man
just give me a new law

(pre-chorus)
i don’t wanna know if the answers aren’t easy
so just bring it down from the mountain to me

(chorus)
i want a new law
i want a new law
gimme that new law

(vs. 2)
don’t teach me about moderation and liberty
i prefer a shot of grape juice

don’t teach me about loving my enemies

don’t teach me how to listen to the Spirit
just give me a new law

(pre-chorus/chorus)

(bridge)
what’s the use in trading a law you can never keep
for one you can that cannot get you anything
do not be afraid
do not be afraid
do not be afraid

why is it that you can always find a relevant song for your post?

sometimes it is not laziness. sometimes it is the fear of the unknown that is the consequences of our actions. which is actually very small, if we remembered to look at the Big Picture.

and Another season has brought us another chance. We’re together in this hot weather to dance.
