One More Chance

One More Chance

Have mercy, on me O God.
according to Your steadfast love.
Let your mercy blot out my sin,
Wash me thoroughly,
Wash me thoroughly.

I wanna see with my own eyes.
To see You glorified.
I wanna know that I’m still loved.
To be able to love and be loved.

I know all my offenses.
My sin is ever before me.
Be justified in Your words.
Teach me wisdom again,
Teach me wisdom again.

I wanna see with my own eyes.
To see You glorified.
I wanna know that I’m still loved.
To be able to love and be loved.

O God of my deliverance,
Renew a right spirit in me.
Restore the joy of your salvation
Cast me not away,
Cast me not away.

I wanna see with my own eyes.
To see You glorified.
I wanna know that I’m still loved.
To be able to love and be loved.

You do not delight in sacrifice!
except for a broken soul,
a shattered contrite heart,
You will not despise,
You will not despise.

I wanna see with my own eyes.
To see You glorified.
I wanna know that I’m still loved.
To be able to love and be loved.

Not Enough Time

So I have written a little about my new project. Unfortunately, it hasn't gotten much attention this summer. Of course, on top of it all, my computer crashed. Luckily, I had it saved elsewhere, or I would have lost it all. I'm at a place where I feel a little stuck and unsure how to proceed. I have two ideas...one that would have launched the story right away, and one that will help character development. I will likely use the second idea, but I still need to work through it all.

My problem now is finding time to get all the things I want to get done, done. Hopefully I will have a decent rough draft done by the end of the year, but that may be optimistic.

Unfortunately, the person I asked to edit it has moved to a job outside of the company I am currently at. This will make the revisions take a little longer, but I am confident that they'll get done and get done soon.

As of right now, I am planning a trilogy. While I do not have the individual names for the books, I do have the series title: The Pheonix Tear.

I will try to post updates periodically.

Godspeed.
