"You're Getting Me Through the Night"

Hello friends! Long time, no blog. Alright, let's get my lame excuses over with. Last week, I found myself lacking inspiration in all sorts of ways. I did have a poem, but whenever I found time to blog, I couldn't find the notebook I wrote it in. And this week is probably the busiest of the summer, with me volunterring for a choir camp, Ellie and Danny at FCA camp, and Danny's baseball. Yep, we're packed, peeps.

So since I have a writer's block, I've decided to share a few songs that I adore with all my heart. Here we go!

This song is probably my favorite Christian song of the year. Every time I listen to it I feel relieved. It's really beautiful. God is ALWAYS with us.

In the midst of deep sorrow
I see Your light is breaking through
The dark of night will not overtake me
I am pressing into You
Lord, You fight my every battle
And I will not fear
(Kari Jobe, "I am Not Alone)
 
 
I finally got a chance to listen to this song and it is magical! I haven't seen Pitch Perfect and from I heard, it's not the cleanest movie around, but this song is amazingly beautiful. Take a listen:)

 
I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
(Jessie J, "Flashlight")
 
 
THIS SONG! I heard this song before it became popular and it is AMAZING. This is a tough, busy week for me so I've been singing this song to myself. It almost NEVER gets old. The lyrics are so inspiring. PLEASE LISTEN!
 
And all those things I didn't say
Wrecking balls inside my brain
I will scream them loud tonight
Can you hear my voice this time
 
 
 
Okay, so those are some songs! This week I've been listening to annoying music from the musical that we're doing, but it's looking up. Ellie and I will be gone all next week at Super Summer, an awesome camp. AND my request for "The Heir" finally got accepted! Yay!
 
How's your summer going? What's your favorite summer song?

Beautiful Words #8

"Above all, I have learned to love and forgive. Because without forgiveness, love will fail and without love, even the greatest acts of courage are in vain, if they even exist to begin with."

Hello! I just watched Cinderella, guys! It was flawless:D. BTW, I came up with this. It isn't from the movie. Anywho, have a great weekend!

A Little Poem

Every day, people break.
Then they cry,
Before they fade
And then they're gone.
I hope there's something more.

Every day, people run
Curl up in bed 
But the pain isn't undone.
Can't get along.
I pray there's something more.

Every day, people lose hope.
Watch themselves burn,
Suffocate in smoke.
It's so wrong.
Is there something more?

Every day, people die.
But be sure of this,
There is another life.
It is still a hopeful song.
I know there's something more.

I got inspired to write this after begining to read This Star Won't Go Out. Hope you like it:)
