The Month of Silence is Broken...


I seriously did not mean to be away this long. As well, I seriously did not mean to time my return to be exactly a month later. It just happened that way. I have done many things this past month...most of it away from the computer. I've been busy with the business venture I am pursuing here in Southern Illinois with my family. As well, I have been pursuing new ministry opportunities, new friendships, and rediscovering old friendships.

With all that said, this month has left me unable to put my thoughts & feelings to words. However, something struck me this past week that I will share here. I heard a song on an episode of "House" in which I was drawn to immediately. Like I said, it had a force behind it. The song did not just touch me...it struck me...and I'm discovering it struck me and is continuing to strike me on so many levels. I have many thoughts to share about this song and its possible implications; but for tonight I leave you just the lyrics and the recommendation to go buy this song off of ITunes.

Glad to be back...and I hope you'll come back too when you find out I'm writing again.

RYAN ADAMS' "DESIRE"
Two hearts fading, like a flower.
And all this waiting, for the power.
For some answer, to this fire.
Sinking slowly. The wateras higher.
Desire

With no secrets. No obsession.
This time I'm speeding with no direction.
Without a reason. What is this fire?
Burning slowly. My one and only.
Desire

You know me. You don't mind waiting.
You just can't show me, but God I'm praying,
That you'll find me, and that you'll see me,
That you run and never tire.
Desire
