Praying Hard (thank you, OneRepublic!)
I want to encourage you in the middle of whatever is going on in your life to pause and consider life’s biggest questions and greatest mysteries. I included lots of metaphors and messages in the hope that something would trigger more wondering and pondering. Seek truth and you will find it. Seek God and you will find Him – He created us to thrive. We’ll keep praying hard! Thank you, OneRepublic, for your great music! May God bless you, protect you, and give you peace!

Music: “Counting Stars” (OneRepublic)
Words by me: Lately we been, we been going deep, wondering about life’s greatest mysteries. Grateful we been, we been praying hard. Shed tears, rejoice together – we’ll keep praying hard. Yeah, we’ll keep praying hard. We see our lives have been misaligned, shaken out of our slumber. In our faces, flashing signs – seek the truth and you shall find what’s true, but we need discernment. Yes, we need to learn the difference between right and wrong, not just sing the same old song. When we-e-e-e know something is wrong – don’t do the wrong thing. When we-e-e-e know something is right – just do the right thing. We’re alive, we’re alive, we’re alive! Everything that God does makes us really thrive!
