Sometimes I pray for a slap in the face,

Then I beg to be spared 'cause I'm a coward,
If there's a master of death I'll bet he's holding his breath,
As I show the blind and tell the deaf about his power,
I'm a doubting thomas,
I can't keep my promises,
'Cause i don't know what's safe,
oh me of little faith

Can I be used to help others find truth,When I'm scared I'll find proof that its a lie,
Can I be lead down a trail dropping bread crumbs,
That prove I'm not ready to die

Please give me time to decipher the signs,
Please forgive me for time that I've wasted

Doubting Thomas- Nickel Creek

I wish I could sing and play just one instrument

but alas I can not If I could I would want to sound like them

The Incredulity of Saint Thomas by Caravaggio.

Amazing image captured here. The detail is incredible, look at his hand and how Thomas is touching Christ's wound. I love it. This week has been the longest. Its Wednesday and it feels it should be Friday... I hate when that happens. My sister turned 12 yesterday and I felt so old. I remember when she was sweet, little and was always singing. Which she still sings all the time... she's so tall and is no longer sweet and innocent. I took her to Gamestop and bought her some Nintendo DS games and a Wii game. We have been battling like crazy on some Wii. I have mastered bowling and Mario Kart is my new crack. My grandmother is in town and is crazier than ever... seriously she makes me laugh with her crazy comments and opinions on things. I don't understand why she doesn't just move down here. She has about 3 years left with her job, she is getting to the point of not being able to move around like she used too. She has invested everything in her business and is covered in bills. But she is doing what she loves... can't argue with that. I pray she gets knocked in the head with sense and realize she can't do this forever. Everyday she amazes me with all the trades she knows how to do.. knitting, sewing, cooking, artistic out the butt, painting, she could build a house if you let her, plumbing, electric work, computer wiz for her age... and she wants to learn all the time. Her only downfall is her stink butt attitude at times. I started reading the Twilight series... I think I sorted crack when I agreed to read them. I like the way she writes so far but I haven't been able to get lost in the story yet. I wish I had my freaking Harry Potter movies.. I'm having with drawls lol. I am super pumped about the Half Blood Prince movie... I need to reread the book before the movie comes out.

Hope everyone is having a great week

grace and peace
