Mind's Eye

I had Mind's Eye by DC Talk in my head when I woke up this morning - yay! I like that song. It is off of their Jesus Freak album - you know the one that came after Free At Last and everyone said - wow they can sing lol I like that song and I am glad that God gave that song to me. I like when He does that :)

I survived VBS. Yay for Starbucks at church! I have decided that Lifeway is like the State Board for Educator Certification. They had smores for a craft for 1st-3rd graders that involved community sharing of a can of chocolate frosting. The elementary teacher in me was screaming nooooo on the inside. I even suggested to the crafts director who has never been a teacher that it be tweaked and that they put the frosting on the plates for the kids. Nope - she was sure Lifeway knew something about kids too. Thankfully it was not as bad as what it could have been.

Had fun following the tweets of Angie Smith yesterday. They had adventures in flying and some unauthorized "pets" in a hotel room in Sacramento (they are bugs that start with a c but can be called by r and I shall not name them here as I am afraid of them - ewww gross disgusting). And Allan's tweet about collagen lips and Hollywood made me laugh - how I wished I could have been there to help ease the shock that is California for the non-natives. I guess since I grew up there I just learned to ignore it or accept it lol.

Okay trying to figure out dinner. Lyrics are below.
_______________________________________________________________________________________\
[In my mind, I can see Your face
As Your love pours down in a shower of grace
Some people tell me that You're just a dream
My faith is the evidence of things unseen]



In my mind's eye, in my mind's eye
In my mind's eye, in my mind

You know what I'm going through
I know this is true
'Cause You stood in my shoes
Desire's inside of me
But it's hard to believe
In what you cannot see

Can you catch the wind?
See a breeze?
Its presence is revealed by
The leaves on a tree
An image of my faith in the unseen

(chorus)
In my mind's eye
I see Your face
You smile as you show me grace
In my mind's eye
You take my hand
We walk through foreign lands
The foreign lands of life

In my mind's eye, in my mind's eye
In my mind's eye, in my mind

In my mind I'm where I belong
As I rest in your arms
And like a child I hold on to you
In my moment of truth, yes I do

We can ride the storm
Endure the pain
You comfort me in my hurricane
And I'll never be alone again

(repeat chorus 2x)

In my mind's eye, in my mind's eye
In my mind's eye, in my mind

In my mind I can see Your face
Love pours down in a shower of grace
Life is a gift that You choose to give
I believe we eternally live
Faith is the evidence of things unseen
People tell me that You're just a dream
But they don't know You the way that I do
You're the one I live to pursue

Can you catch the wind?
[Can you see God, have you ever seen Him?
I've never seen the wind
I seen the effects of the wind
But I've never seen the wind]
Can you see the breeze?
[There's a mystery to it]

(repeat chorus)

In my mind's eye, in my mind's eye
[I see You there again]
In my mind's eye, in my mind's eye
[I know You'll meet me there my Friend]
In my mind's eye, in my mind's eye
[I know You're there, I can touch You there]
In my mind's eye, in my mind's eye
[I want You there, I need You there, I see You there, I know You care]
[And I believe, and I believe, and I believe]
