Ever feel like Charlie Brown?

Music: Ed Bogas
Lyrics: Artist Unknown

Race for your Life

It’s a new day
We all can agree that the sun shine’s
Brought to you absolutely free

Free as running water
Fresh as morning dew

No matter who’s the leader
When the sun sets down
It’s gone Charlie Brown
So race for your life

Take a chance cause there’s no second dance
Till it’s a new day

I’ll tell you a secret
You’re about to face a test
And you’ll have to do your best
Don’t forget, just remember
Just remember, don’t forget

Your life is free as running water
Fresh as morning dew

No matter who’s the winner
If you try, we’re behind you
Charlie Brown

Race for your life, Charlie Brown

Race for your life, Charlie Brown

Race for your life, Charlie Brown

Race for your life, Charlie Brown

Charles Spurgeon: Being Unfashionable

I found this quote waiting for me on my google reader this morning, and it got me thinking that maybe I’ve become way to fashionable.

The great guide of the world is fashion and it’s god is respectability–two phantoms at which brave men laugh! How many of you look around on society to know what to do? You watch the general current and then float upon it! You study the popular breeze and shift your sails to suit it. True men do not so! You ask, “Is it fashionable? If it is fashionable, it must be done.” Fashion is the law of multitudes, but it is nothing more than the common consent of fools.

Spiritual Amnesia

I have a bunch of excuses, I’ve been busy at work, etc, but that’s all they really are. I listened to this podcast by John Eldredge last night before i fell asleep and realized that they were talking, at least to some extent, about me.
