"Call me Ishmael"

So, I thought I would give this a try. Being 5 years late to the party seems to be my M.O. anyway. I mean, I didn’t start watching House until 2008, and just found out about Arrested Development last year, so I guess 2012 should be the year for blogging, right?

I'm still not sure why I'm doing this; I'd like to think I'm being altruistic, but in reality I probably need someplace to vent, and what better place than the internet for that, right? This may be more of an online diary (that no one reads), than some useful informational blog, but that's ok.

Anyway, the title. I suppose the first post would be a good place to explain it. Instead of being original, its part of a song I like. From a band I like. It goes something like this.

Oh Lord, I want to lay down

So that You'll pick me up

I've been defined by being found

By Your perfect love

And so I'll pick up my cross

And follow hard after You

Your grace is more than enough

Please, help me get through

And teach me to die

That You might live and reign inside

This heart of mine is Yours to keep

And Yours to define

Oh Lord, I accept this gift

Of grace you offer me

Jesus, I'll keep my eyes on You

Please lead me

And teach me to die

That You might live and reign inside

This heart of mine is Yours to keep

And Yours to define

I don’t needs signs, only You

I don’t need wonders, only You

I don’t need miracles, only You

I don’t need anything but You

And teach me to die

That You might live and reign inside

This heart of mine is Yours to keep

And Yours to define

Define
