You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again
Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again
You fill up my senses
Like a night in a forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again
If you want a great stylist and maybe, just maybe… a word from our Dad, or His Son, or His Spirit, give me a call and I’ll put you in touch with Jack, you won’t be disappointed! And he does quite a few good impressions as well… Popeye’s one of my favorites.
Life could be a dream, life could be a dream
Do, do, do, do, sh-boom
Life could be a dream (sh-boom)
If I could take you up in paradise up above (sh-boom)
If you would tell me I’m the only one that you love
Life could be a dream, sweetheart
Hello, hello again, sh-boom and hopin’ we’ll meet again
Oh, life could be a dream (sh-boom)

Today I celebrate life, 53 years of them, hopefully at least 47 more… I would like to live to 100. Maybe to see my boys mature into vibrant men of this world, maybe to experience all I can before this breath of a life catapults me into the next one. Maybe at 100 years old I won’t be doing much catapulting…
Either way I am at peace… at rest. I often say to people as I depart from them, “Rest in Peace!” I don’t usually get a favorable response, wonder why? What other rest is there? Oh yeah… the ones the world offers us, fear… stress… worry… frustration… anger… we know the rest of them.
I would rather rest in peace… and calm, relaxation, comfort, harmony, serenity, tranquility… right now… right here!
I have found it, I have found Him… and if I don’t drift too far away, I can get back there pretty quick. There’s no place like home…
It may happen in a moment or over many years. But, at some point in our lives, whether a “Christian” your whole life or never at all… we all need to find our way home.
