Heck Yeah Abandon Kansas



Since Joey V. of From Indian Lakes is going on the first leg of the living room tour with Jeremy I thought I’d share some of their wonderful music, in case (for some odd reason) you guys have never heard of them.

“Learn” off Ad Astra Per Aspera






"cut open my body, you won’t find me there. you can’t touch my thoughts, you can’t touch my dreams, ‘cause they’re not there. we need You, we can’t see You, we know You’re there… just like the air"

I think King David is really someone to look up to. He messed up, a ton, yet he was known as a man after God’s own heart. He was a great songwriter, and he came to God with this incredible balance of humility and confidence. He looked up to the heavens when he was afraid, convinced that the same God who formed the universe could protect him from anything he would face. He didn’t ask for an escape, just an assurance of aid in time of need.

There is tension between me wishing I didn’t have to leave, but refusing to stay, and there is tension between heaven coming my way and me being taken that direction. It’s that dynamic that I think makes our God unlike any other deity. He chases after us and woos us after him. It’s a constant metamorphosis towards a closer and more intimate relationship with our Creator. I keep the image of life as a storm in mind, as beautiful, scary, and unpredictable as a storm is. We have to get through this life before we can rest amongst the stars.

This Side of Madness: We all want what we deserveUnless it’s going to hurtAnd I would rather... 

extension147:

We all want what we deserve
Unless it’s going to hurt
And I would rather earn my bread
Off the sweat of someone else’s face
Than use my own strength

We work so hard to reserve this dream
That’s a nightmare
And now my eyes are used to the dark

There is no one left
Who isn’t better than…
