Call me Crazy...

So, it's been a hectic day (...week, month...whatever). But listening to this song keeps me grounded and reminds me where my real rewards will be found. I hope you enjoy this song too and that it might speak to you.


Crazy
by Mercy Me

Why I would I spend my life longing for the day that it would end..
Why would I spend my time pointing to another man..
Isn't that crazy

How can I find hope in dying, with promises unseen..
How can I learn your way is better
In everything I'm taught to be..
Isn't that crazy

I have not been called to the wisdom of this world..
But to a God who's calling out to me..
And even though the world may think
I'm losing touch with reality
It would be crazy
To choose this world over eternity

And if I boast let me boast
Of filthy rags made clean
And if I glory let me glory
In my Savior's suffering
Isn't that crazy

And as I live this daily life
I trust you for everything
And I will only take a step
When I feel You leading me
Isn't that crazy

I have not been called to the wisdom of this world..
But to a God who is calling out to me..
And even though the world my think
I'm losing touch with reality
It would be crazy
To choose this world over eternity

Call me crazy
You can call me crazy
Call me crazy

I have not been called to the wisdom of this world..
But to a God who is calling out to me..
And even though the world may think that
I'm losing touch with reality
It would be crazy, It would be crazy, It would be crazy
To choose this world over eternity

Isn't That crazy..
Call me crazy
You can call me crazy
Call me crazy

p.s.

Erin was mostly right about the dress in my post a few days ago...

I bought it for sophomore prom, but wore it again for her wedding. :) I was SO flippin' excited that it still fits. Though I do have to rock the spanx now. I certainly didn't need those when I was 15!

E, your $20 in Monopoly money will be delivered to you the next time I see you. xo!

Things I Love Thursday



I'm totally stealing this theme-day idea from one of my favorite bloggers, Gala Darling. I thoroughly enjoy visiting her blog every Thursday to hear about the things she loooooves. :) So, it's my turn!


I LOVE...

- Pudding. Particularly vanilla flavored. I've been making my own at home with the Jell-O sugar free, fat free box mix. It's sooooo yummy. And chock-full of calcium! I'm eating some now. :)

- The smell of Thanksgiving. Turkey. Pumpkin pie. Spices. All of it. In all honesty I may love the smells even more than the tastes. Well, with the exception of pumpkin pie, of course. :)

- !!!!!!s and :)s Clearly. I'm an addict who has at least admitted. That's always the first step, yes?

- Summer flowers and my wedding band. But more importantly that they remind me of Hubster and my wonderful family.

- YOU!!! Really, I think you all are amazing. :) (ah! There I go again...)



What do you love??
