Everything is Broken

Well life isn't easy. The "kids" Jaden and Nicole have been thowing up the past 24 hours. And Suzanne hasn't felt very well herself. I'm ok for now, but I'm heading to Colorado on Thursday, so I hope I get sick tonight so I'll be better by then (I think that's how it works).

My dad had a tough week with chemo, keep praying for him. He lost ten pounds and he was already really thin. Pray that God will provide for them also, he hasn't been able to work lately.

Went over to Todd's house today and, unless a miracle happened today, the divorce is final. I just can't believe it. A guy who has changed his life so much in the past year, who has lived in sacrifice and who is following Christ, has just been divorced. Prayers go out to you man.

In light of the crazyness and the brokeness that I'm sure everyone feels, at least sometimes, I leave a Bob Dylan song for you.

Everything is Broken
Broken lines, broken strings,
Broken threads, broken springs,
Broken idols, broken heads,
People sleeping in broken beds.
Ain't no use jiving
Ain't no use joking
Everything is broken.

Broken bottles, broken plates,
Broken switches, broken gates,
Broken dishes, broken parts,
Streets are filled with broken hearts.
Broken words never meant to be spoken,
Everything is broken.

Bridge: Seem like every time you stop and turn around
Something else just hit the ground

Broken cutters, broken saws,
Broken buckles, broken laws,
Broken bodies, broken bones,
Broken voices on broken phones.
Take a deep breath, feel like you're chokin',
Everything is broken.

Bridge: Every time you leave and go off someplace
Things fall to pieces in my face

Broken hands on broken ploughs,
Broken treaties, broken vows,
Broken pipes, broken tools,
People bending broken rules.
Hound dog howling, bull frog croaking,
Everything is broken
