A Song Idea

So when I got home tonight I had this song idea. So I sat down with my accoustic, thank you Stephen, and began trying to right this song.
I got the idea from just thinking about all the things that I am currently dealing with in my life and who I am as a person and how through it all, through the struggles and the sin God is with me every step of the way.

Here are the lyrics, and you guys are more than welcome to shoot me feedback, I would appreciate that. At no means am I “married” to these so please constructive criticism is appreciated.

I’m a ship lost at sea
In need of a light to guide me home
And I’m in the midst of living hell
Needing a hand to hold on to
(Chorus)
And It’s You
And It’s You
Only you

I’m a sinner born with hate
Struggling to make it through the day
And I’m a man in need of a savior
Who paid it all so long ago

(Repeat Chorus)

So it has been a while since I have posted anything. Since I am not really doing anything except sitting in the back lounge of the bus listening to music, I figured I would give a new post here. Well… I am finally getting this whole diabetes thing down. In a couple of weeks hopefully I will be on the pump and that should really help get everything under control even more, so I am looking forward to that. It’s amazing how much it has become routine within just a month of being diagnosed.

Also, Winter Jam has been amazing! Standing side stage every night and watching the thousands of hands go up every night that are giving their lives to christ has been unbelievable. God is really doing some amazing work through Tony and the entire tour. To be apart of this tour has been an amazing experience, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. God has really been working on me through the tour and brought several things to my attention.

Just within the past few days something has been very heavy on my heart that would bring me to big crossroad in my life. It would involve leaving the comfort of my surroundings and the love and support from family that I am familiar with, which I think would be a good thing and a good experience for me. I have been praying about it and I am positive that God’s will will be done.

peace,

Cameron



What If…

Well a new chapter has begun in the U.S. presidency and while watching the ceremony yesterday i found myself becoming more acceptable to the fact of Obama being our president.  Many of his beliefs and things do clash with mine completely, but what if he can turn this thing around…would anyone be against that. I mean don’t get me wrong I am republican and support the party 100%, but lately the party hasn’t done anything to jump out of my seat and get excited about. I thought Bush did a good job with the hand he was dealt. I mean he did inherit 9/11 and the economy, well it fluctuates every now and then. But back to Obama, you must say he does talk a good game! And if he can turn us around then I am fully willing to stand by and let it happen, unlike some who hope he falls on his face and wants a republican to be in office and get the glory. To them i say what does it matter what party, race, or color as long as it is turned around. But I will say this, I don’t believe anything will happen until America returns to ONE NATION UNDER GOD! 

On another note it made my heart feel good that America did take the step of electing a black man into office. Whether you support him or not it shows the progress that America has made over the past 50 years. I am not a very political person, but for some reason this became very heavy on  my heart yesterday. But I know like i stated in my last post, God is in control of everything and as a christian that has to warm your heart at least a little. Hopefully while in office Obama will not turn out as liberal as his record shows and he can help America change. I feel strongly that everyone should stop crying now because he got in office and for the betterment of our country support and pray for our government, no matter who is in office. 

peace,

Cameron



A new life!

Well earlier this week i was handed a new direction in life….I was diagnosed with diabetes. From the month of July until January I had lost 40 lbs. Also, I had become very thirsty all the time and began peeing all the time.  So i went to the doctor and within 15 minutes of being there i found myself in a state of nervousness and confusion! The doc took my sugar level and it was off the charts, 430 to be exact. So when they found this out i was immediately rushed to the ER. After I got there they began giving me insulin and hooked my up to an I-V. It was quite tough, but i finally was able to get out after spending the night 

Through all of this I realize that it is tough, but it is something that i can control and will work very hard at to do so. Also going through this i have realized that everything happens for a reason, I knew this before but it is clearer to me now! And i know that he never gives you more than you can handle and is with you every step of the way.  Also people, more now than ever, question the things that are going on in their lives, but just remember EVERYTHING is for his glory!

Peace,

Cameron
