okay. this is NOT morbid. i am not planning on dying or anything, so relax. actually, i started writing this a couple months ago, and then last night i ended up finishing it (instead of sleeping). i even had a tune for it. neato.
And if I die
Before I wake
I pray the Lord
Your pain to take
You need not worry
You need not cry
You need not fear
Or question why
It’s the journey
I’ve been waiting
All my life to make
If I die before I wake
And if I die
Before I wake
I pray the Lord
This day to make
A new story
And new song
Started and
Continued on
It’s the journey
I’ve been waiting
All my life to make
If I die before I wake
And if I die
Before I wake
I pray the Lord
For His name’s sake
To make His glory
Shine today
In all of this
You do and say
It’s the journey
I’ve been waiting
All my life to make
If I die before I wake

hey thats cool.
the poem.
pretty saweet.
i forgot about your xanga site and we’ve been in the process of moving, it is good to hear about what’s going on with you. I got to visit with your family in the last couple of weeks, that was great! it’s so good to have family all over. we don’t know what we are going to do yet for work or should I say mula, me and micah have been working on this house that we moved into, but don’t have a plan for what to do to make some money, we are probably going to start a business and have been praying for ideas. we’re done with the painting franchise but might do painting on the side. anyway, we started leading youth group not long ago, i’m really loving it. I didn’t think that i’d ever want to work with youth (jr. and Sr. high) but God changed my desires and is making it fun. Elijah slept in his own room last night for the first time ever. it really wasn’t that bad. this morning we were so happy that he made it through the night by himself and told him how great it was that he slept all by himself and he was so proud. parenting is a crazy and exciting journey. I definetly wouldn’t want to do it without Jesus. (When i’m weak He makes me strong, i’d never get by living on my own abilities.) that’s from a song. well, i’ve got a lot to do yet, so i’m gonna actually do something. I hope to hear from you soon.
many blessings,
becky
Hey Rachel,
Long time, Tele has arrived. Steve left the classroom for a bit to go and meet him at the airport. I’ll be hooking him up with Starbucks coffee. If you want anything let me know. Maybe some tea, some Chai, some coffee of your own???

I have forgotten!!
Much love in Christ,
