till kingdom come

Steal my heart and hold my tongue.
I feel my time, my time has come.
Let me in, unlock the door.
I've never felt this way before.

The wheels just keep on turning,
The drummer begins to drum,
I don't know which way I'm going,
I don't know which way I've come.

Hold my hand inside your hands,
I need someone who understands.
I need someone, someone who hears,
For you, I've waited all these years.

For you, I'd wait 'til kingdom come.
Until my day, my day is done.
And say you'll come, and set me free,
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.

In your tears and in your blood,
In your fire and in your flood,
I hear you laugh, I heard you say,
"I wouldn't change a single thing."

The wheels just keep on turning,
The drummers begin to drum,
I don't know which way I'm going,
I don't know what I've become.

For you, I'd wait 'til kingdom come,
Until my days, my days are done.
Say you'll come and set me free,
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.
Just say you'll wait, you'll wait for me.

morelia mission

Unbelievable, unforgettable in ways I couldn't even imagine.
Stepping out of the tiny express jet and walking towards the miniscule airport, I was at first a bit apprehensive about the upcoming week. Mexico? I thought. What did i know about Mexico? What did I know about orphans and taking care of them? But God had a way of showing me His way, His plan, His love.
The 25 children that live in Morelia Mission are a blessing to the Casa Hogar Por Los Ninos Necessitos, and the Casa Hogar a blessing to them. Taken off the streets and removed from abusive homes, these children have experienced a lifetime more of pain that I have ever experienced. And still, they smile and they love with hearts opened and filled with a flow of life. Their undying spirits have inspired me more than they will ever know. It amazes me daily and I can't even begin to comprehend the way God has worked in their lives, how He has renewed them whole and given them another chance at life. These children have shown me a way to communicate without words, but through action. I know in their eyes and in their smiles, that even for a short while, I made a small difference in their life and that has made it all worthwhile. They taught me how to love unconditionally, whole-heartedly, to forget about the barriers that separated us, and just focus on the greatest thing in the world: Love. I will be forever grateful for this experience, and the Morelia children will always be in my heart.

"To love abundantly is to live abundantly, and to love forever is to live forever. He that would be happy, let him remember that there is but one way- it is more blessed, it is more happy, to give than to receive.
...They could not understand him, but they felt the love that beat in his heart."
