Dare You To Move

Switchfoot Concert
March 1, 2007
London, Ontario

Was it worth it? I dunno. The bass was pretty overpowering. The few songs I did know was good though. Escaped the floor just when things got pushy. All good. Now I'm craving more Switchfoot songs...

With each event, I get a little firmer. A little more today than yesterday, a little more tomorrow than today. Not by my hands, but by Yours. I can't even meet You at the halfway point, but then, do I really have to? Arin't You already here? I'm still far from ready. But I know You'll keep leading. Cognition will never cease to be a defense, but waiting for higher stuff...I'm here again. God, How do I blow down this wall?

I chose not to pick up anything from the concert, though it was a bit tempting. I've been reminded of the path I've set out to walk. No, my mementos will not be Tshirts or CDs. It'll be my testimony. It will be the testimonies of my friends. The people we walk with. My fellowship.

Of course you're not ready. I sure aint. All the more reason to give it up to Him. I suppose I am on a bit of a concert high. God is good, nevertheless. God is good. Not enough time? All the reason to keep going. We still got a lot of work to do.

"As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." - Proverbs 27.17


Dare You To Move by SWITCHFOOT

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here, Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next? What happens next?

I dare you to move, I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move, I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened

Welcome to the fallout, Welcome to resistance
The tension is here, The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?, Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here
