He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast gladly about my weakness...for when I am weak, then I am strong. ~ 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

We call them fools
who have to dance within the flame
who chance the sorrow and the shame
that always comes with getting burned.
We call them strong
those who can face this world alone
who seem to get by on their own
those who will never take the fall;
But you've got to be strong when consumed by desire
cause it's not enough just to stand outside the fire.
We call them weak
those who are unable to resist
the slightest chance love might exist
and for that, forsake it all.
- Garth Brooks, "Standing Outside the Fire"

My Poetry
-
Work too hard at this friendship
Same thing every time -
She isn't in "The Complete Poems" on my desk.
If she saw a Marxist theme, she wouldn't understand. -
The only ounce of comfort is knowing that God’s still there.
He holds you, even when I can’t.
