     the following is from Josh Dies, the lead singer of the amazing band SHOWBREAD. i believe everyone should read this and hear the message!! and it goes a lil sumpthin like this...........
    Arrows are Deadly
    (a Review by Josh Dies).I realized this summer that it’s been nine years since the first I and my band Showbread pulled out of our driveway in Guyton, Georgia with months of touring ahead of us. Somehow in those nine years Showbread has done at least two incredible things: we kept touring and… well, we’re still a band. Some folks might openly disagree with the latter, but the former is indisputable.It would be a stretch of the truth to insist that we have always wanted one thing out of touring, but it stretches the truth less to say that we wanted to want one thing out of touring. What we wanted to want was to tell the world about Jesus: The miraculous story of a peasant, Jewish Rabbi in the ancient near-east that went around preaching that the Kingdom of God was near! The story of God himself stepping down into the world, in human flesh, and conquering death by dying himself and then being resurrected from the dead. And that somehow, in light of this beautiful, mesmerizing and mysterious story folks like you and me can be made right with God and enter into his presence now and forever.That’s what we wanted to be our focus anyway. For the most part, we’ve given it our best. Sometimes more than others and heck, often we’ve outright failed. But after nine years of spending more months each year in a van than at home, you start to think. We can’t help but see, time and time again in our travels, a world in desperate need of God’s redemptive power. We see a people oppressed by selfishness, greed, listlessness, anxiety, depression, despair… We see a church co-opted by the American dream and a generation taught to settle for the feeble, plastic freedom offered by legislation rather than the outright soul-liberating freedom of the living God. We’ve concluded, time and time again, that the world does indeed need Jesus and that Jesus is indeed at work in the world. And slowly, as those nine-years unraveled, Jesus taught his followers in Showbread—with infinite patience—what it means to make the Gospel the sole focus of a touring rock band.To me, that’s what Arrows Are Deadly was all about. A second wind. A breath of fresh air. The voice of God himself invigorating his kids, telling them “This is only the beginning, there is more work to be done!”I saw a middle-aged woman weep in front of a crowd of tattooed young people because God had healed her long pain-ridden feet. I saw a young man baffled by the fact that even though he did not believe God could or would heal his neck of chronic pain, God did it anyway. A young woman in Florida bawled in front of us as she confessed that it was on that night she first believed that God truly loved her. A group of perfect strangers in New York huddled around one another, joining hands and crying out to God on behalf of a wayward family member none of us knew.Almost a decade of traversing the countryside playing rock concerts and telling people about Jesus, but on this tour something unique was happening. We looked forward to our performances, we looked forward to fellowship and fun with our friends in the other bands, but we had an insatiable craving to see God move AFTER each show in the minutes and hours when we gathered in small circles to pray for one another. The focus, even after nine years, continues to be refined.Every day I read theologians and scholars pour over the Bible in an endless effort to unravel it’s endless layers. On paper, theology is captivating, it stirs the heart and mind and seizes the imagination. In person, theology is devastating, it shocks a man to his very core to see with his own eyes and feel in his very bones the truth that prayer changes reality and that Jesus, God of the universe, is moving in the world today.The current of this movement is one I simply must be swept away in.——————————————————————————-- Josh Dies

City And Colour - Sometimes (I Wish) lyrics

If I was a simple man, 
Would we still walk hand in hand?
And if I suddenly went blind, 
Would you still look in my eyes?
What happens when I grow old?
And all my stories have been told?
Will your heart still race for me?
Or will it march to a new beat?
If I was a simple man

If I was a simple man,
I'd own no home, I'd own no land
Would you still stand by my side?
And would our flame still burn so bright?

Sometimes I wonder why,
I'm so full of these endless rhymes
About the way I feel inside
I wish I could just get it right

If I was a simple man
And I could make you understand
There'd be no reason to think twice
You'd be my sun; you'd be my light
If I was a simple man...
If I was a simple man...

Sometimes I wonder why
I'm so full of these endless rhymes
About the way I feel inside
I wish...
Sometimes...[x12]

Song lyrics | Sometimes (I Wish) lyrics

........................................................... I was born at a very young age. I didn't have a nickel to my name or even a pocket to put it in if I had one. My first memory is of two nurses talking. They said that I'd be leaving the hospital the next day. What a way to start life out, broke, homeless and not a stitch of clothes to wear. I was very fortunate though. Two people, we'll call Mom and Dad, took me in. They fed me, bought me clothes and took very good care of me.
........................................................... I'M NOT PERFECT=====I have 1 goal in life, and that's to have no goals!!!!! im a guy who doesnt have any motivation!! Whats my motivation?===== Well I would like to live in the Hill Country of TEXAS some day. Somewhere WEST of Austin, such as Lago Vista or Volente, etc.=====
I am a pop culture affecienado!! Now i find myself obssessed with brands nonwadays , like brands of soda pop, shoes, ect.I may get into collecting logos, memoribilia, and such!!! U got a ? bout pop culture I can answer it. So test me if ya want.=====
I LIKE TO FOLLOW SPORTS, MAINLY HS, BUT COLLEGE AND PRO AS WELL.===== I LOVE the SA SPURS. BRING IT HOME TO TEXAS.===== IM A BIG LONGHORN AND DALLAS COWBOYS (WILL RISE AGAIN) FAN. BUT I ROOT FOR ALL TEXAS TEAMS. IT ONLY MATTERS WHEN THEY PLAY EACH OTHER.===== Im also very immature i fit right in with the 18-23 crowd. ===== I think i look around 26(OK maybe thats wishful thinking) and act around 21=====
MUSIC is a big part of my life, I consider myself an amateur promoter and i'm always trying to find the next big thing. If i had to choose between WARPED or OZZFEST, I'd go WARPED, but I like metal too===== I am very patriotic and proud of my state===== I love Texas, so dont mess with it. I kinda wish we were our own country. That would be neat.===== I am fascinated by the mountains and fresh water lakes!! I would like to get in to Mountaineering and Rock-Climbing some day. I hope to scale the highest peaks on Earth b4 i die.
Heres my business website:::::: www.advocare.com/0103260 I wish some of u city slickers could experience a keg party in a cow pasture or a hayfield===== Thats fun!! ....
