Our local Thai friend just lost his friend to suicide. This is never easy. Too many questions always unanswered.

A few weeks ago, about 2:00 AM, I woke up with the words to this song repeating and running through my mind. Don’t know why, perhaps I was subconsciencely thinking about my friend.

John 14:6 – Jesus says, “I am the way, the truth, and the life…”  We can only find our way through life by choosing Jesus. He shows us the way, gives us truth, and gives us a complete and meaningful life.

I wake up to the same old room
Same cracked paint, same tired moon
Bills on the table, shoes by the door
Some days I don’t know what I’m here for

My hands still shake when dawn breaks through
But I’m still breathing, still making it through
I don’t need perfect, I don’t need grand
Just one more morning to make my stand

If today is heavy
I’ll still take the weight

If the road is rough
I’ll still face the day

I choose life
I choose life
Even when it hurts
I choose life
I choose life
This one, this first
I’ll hold on tight
I choose life

Heaven knows every scar I hide
Every bad break, every sleepless night
But the Lord’s put hope under all that pain
A stubborn spark that still says my name

I may not glow, I may not shine
But I’m still here and it’s feelin’ fine
One more breath, one more step outside
One more chance to stay alive

If the dark comes calling
I’ll let it pass
I don’t need forever
Just need to last

I choose life
I choose life
Even when it hurts
I choose life
I choose life
This one, this first
I’ll hold on tight
I choose life

I’ve carried more than I can say
And I’m still standing here today
So let the storm keep testing me
I am not done, I am still me

I choose life
I choose life
Even when it hurts
I choose life
I choose life
This one, this first
I’ll hold on tight
I choose life
