A few months ago I really started thinking about school and college and such and I've found it very over whelming. Towards the begining of May, I desided that I really wanted to live out my life for Chirst, and not just by going to church every Sunday and being involled in church, but really dedicating my life to Chirst. Espically my life after High School, as I have no idea what I'm going to do besides the fact that I want to go to College. Whatever God wants me to do, I am sure he will tell me in His time, weather it be next week, or three years from now.
Recently, I believe God has talked to me though the music on the radio. There are alot of new songs dealing with dedication. "Aware" By Salvador is one of them and one of my favorites. Chorus:
Make me aware, make me see
Everything I am is not all about me
Take my world, turn it around
So that the obvious can finally be found
Make me aware, make me aware
Another song by Laura Story "Mighty to Save" really touched my heart:
So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender
Yes I surrender
Savior
He can move the mountains
My God is Mighty to save
He is Mighty to save
ForeverAuthor of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
Chris Tomlin "Jesus Messiah"
His body the bread
His blood the wine
Broken and poured out all for love
The whole earth trembled
And the veil was torn
Love so amazing
Love so amazing
Jesus Messiah
Name above all names
Blessed Redeemer
Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners
The ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah Lord of all
All I hope is in You
All I hope is in You
All the glory to You, God
The light of the world
"You Watch Over Me" by Aaron Shust:
You watch over me in the darkest valleys
You watch over me when the night seems long
You help me to see the way before me
You watch over me; You watch over me
Take this frozen heart; awaken me
Never once have You forsaken me
Even though I walk through this shadow of death
You will guide and defend me
You'll guard and protect me
Even though I walk through this shadow of death
You will lead me home
"Your Not Alone" by Meredith Andrews:
You're not alone
For I am here let me wipe away your every fear
My love I've never left your side
I have seen you through the darkest night
and I'm the one who's loved you all your life
All of your life

A Prayer for my Generation
This is the prayer I prayed at youth group tonight as we sang "Give us Clean Hands". This song has really touched me and every time I hear it, I pray for my generation.
Dear God,
I pray that my generation will be the generation that will reach out and seek you, Lord God. I pray that they will not wander off your path into the dark, unknown vallies of this world, but look unto you in their times of trouble and dispare. Give us clean hands. Let us become examples to our friends who don't know you Lord so that they may see your glory, O God.
Amen.
We bow our hearts, We bend our knees,
Oh Spirit come make us humble.
We turn our eyes, From evil things,
Oh Lord we cast down our idols.
So give us clean hands,
and give us pure hearts,
Let us not lift our souls to another.
Oh give us clean hands,
and give us pure hearts,
Let us not lift our souls to another.
Oh God let this be, a generation that seeks
Who seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob.
Oh God let us be, a generation that seeks,
Who seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob.

Who seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob.
Oh God let us be, a generation that seeks,
Who seeks Your face, Oh God of Jacob.
