I wake to a day of
hopelessness and pain.
I look to the end before the
day even starts.
No matter what this day
holds, I will

I will rise up to the glory,
I will rise up to the honor,
I will rise up to the hope,
of Jesus.

I walk through my life
living with shame and guilt.
Each moment held together
by careful thought.
With all of this

I lay my head down hoping
for a better day tomorrow.
Thoughts run through me
in ways no one can explain.
As my eyes drift and droop
I will

Bridge:
The devil can not hold me down
There are better days ahead
Because of you, because of
you, I will rise up


(I have been going through an interesting part of my life right now. But above all things, there is Jesus Christ. My Savior and My Lord. There are better days ahead. Please tell me what you think, any comments are welcome)

Well I have not posted in about a month, life has drastically change for Susanne and I. On March 18 I watched as this woman, my wife, gave birth to our baby girl Elaina Wray. Susanne was awesome even more awesome that words can describe. I watched as the Susanne pushed and pushed until our baby entered the world, full of beauty and hair.

I stood next to Susanne as the nurses handed Elaina Wray over to Susanne, I looked and realized that these were the two most important girls in my life. I saw Susanne crying, Elaina crying, and yes myself crying of this blessing from God, was given to us healthy and awake.

Elaina now just over three weeks old and full of spunk and personality. She has her Daddy's (just getting used to that) hair, messed up and spikey. I have never been in a situation where someone relys on someone else so much than with Elaina. The past three weeks, in order to live, she relys on us to feed her, to keep her safe. That is an awesome responsibility of myself and Susanne.

God bless Elaina Wray and God bless her parents as they are figuring out what they heck they are doing. God has chosen to form and create her, and has given us the responsibility to raise her according to His ways.

I promise I will have some pictures later.

Hope for a brand new day
in which we can say
my God, "How Great thou art".

Hope in which we can to our part
to bring about salvation
to God's wonderful creation.

Hope for the coming one
who is the only Son
of our great and glorious God.

Hope is that we are the odd
to go against the grain of society
so that we ultimately practice sobriety.

Hope is that as God has a place
for us , he sheds His grace
upon us in this hour of need.

Hope is for which we beg, we plead
for the Savior's voice to say
that this is the day.


Been wondering about the hope for which we should have for the coming day of our Savior Lord and King Jesus Christ. For that is the day that He will bring about salvation to the His creation. I hope you are blessed in reading. Please comment and tell your thougths. Blessings
