If You Told Me (A Year Ago) - 5/25/12

If you told me
I would meet with missionaries
I would take the lessons
I would be baptized
I would have said you're crazy

If you told me
I would read the Book Of Mormon
I would go to church every Sunday
I would have faith in God the Father and Jesus Christ
I would have said you're out of your mind

If you told me
I would enjoy missionary work
I would be trying to teach others
I would be trying to bring others unto the church
I would have said you're insane

If you told me
My life would change
My sins would be forgiven
I would have a new lease on life
I would have said don't play games with me

If you had told me
All those things
A year ago
I would have told you to get away from me
I never would have believed you

Its crazy how
Its insane how
Its amazing how
Its awesome how
Much one's life can change in a year.




One Day - 5/25/12

I was on a path
Thick with iniquity
Going nowhere good
I didn't like me

One day I decided
I would no more
I heard your voice
I opened the door

You were there
Waiting for me
Just as you'd always been

Bright and shining
The purest light
Smile on your face
Arms open wide

Daughter come hither
You beckoned
I ran to you
And was welcomed

In and out of the water I came
Taking upon
Your glorious name
My life never to be the same

One day when
Everything changed.

Puzzle Piece - 5/10/12

The hole inside
Nothing worldly can fill
No matter what you buy
You can't shake the feeling
Something is missing

You seek and search
But don't see what's in front of you
All you want is to be whole
Whole in your heart
Whole in your soul

Soften your heart
Open the door
Embrace the light
You'll find
God was there the whole time

He was there
He is there
Always and forever
He loves you
More than you can know

Embrace His love
Embrace His light
Have faith in His glory
Have faith in His might

In Him your heart is full
In Him your soul is complete
In Him your life is right

God is the puzzle piece
