Today's Thought of the Day !! - Anyway

Anyway Lyrics
Artist:Martina McBride


You can spend your whole life building
Something from nothin'
One storm can come and blow it all away
Build it anyway
(For those on the Gulf Coast)


You can chase a dream
That seems so out of reach
And you know it might never come your way
Dream it anyway
(For the young dreamers)


God is great
But sometimes life ain't good
And when I pray
It doesn't always turn out like I think it should
But I do it anyway
I do it anyway
(But still God knows what He's doing)


This world's gone crazy
It's hard to believe
That tomorrow will be better than today
Believe it anyway
(Often times how good this world is has to do with our attitude)


You can love someone with all your heart
For all the right reasons
In a moment they can choose to walk away
Love 'em anyway
(For all those who've given up on love)


God is great
But sometimes life ain't good
And when I pray
It doesn't always turn out like I think it should
But I do it anyway
I do it anyway
(No matter how bad things get God still loves you)


You can pour your soul out singing
A song you believe in
That tomorrow they'll forget you ever sang
Sing it anyway
Yea - sing it anyway
(Singing, Preaching, Mentoring, whatever the case may be)


I sing
I love
Anyway


It's like this. We can choose to try, knowing that sometimes we will fail...that sometimes this world will seemingly get the best of us. Or we can simply give up.

A lot of people seem to think that they are failures because they haven't accomplished this or that or because they have made some pretty bad mistakes. But God's Word is packed full of Grace for all of us sinners who seem to be messing everything up.

So when life gets you down in 2007, choose to live anyway, with the knowledge that God still loves you and that there is hope because He sent His Son into the world to show us a way out of our sin and hopelessness.

In the love of Christ,
