Tasteful Tatters Winner Announced!

Yay! We have a winner! And lucky #1 is Becca! Just email me your address and we'll get that shipped to you ASAP =) I just love giving away free stuff.


Here is a cover by Owl City that I discovered the other day and it almost brought me to tears. I love this song anyways, but what he wrote really stuck out to be and I hope it inspires you this weekend.

I was up late last night and decided to record a “cover song” of sorts.
Not for anything special, just for fun.
I’m twenty four years old, yet something about this song makes me bawl like a baby. The way the melodies and lyrics swirl together is so poignant and beautiful. If I were to count on one hand, the number of songs that have ever deeply moved me, this one would take the cake. Last night I probably spent more time actually crying at the piano than I did recording it. Such are the secret confessions of a shy boy from Minnesota.
As I’m so often reminded what a priceless gift my life is, I ache with everything in me to make it count, so that when I finally cross the finish line, I’ll hear the words, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”
To me, there is no greater reward.
Of course, all of this weighs heavily on the spiritual scale, so allow me to be completely honest and say none of it is intended to be “crammed down the throat,” if you will. That is not my intention. This is what I wholeheartedly believe, and to that belief, I remain steadfast until He returns or calls me home.
One thing is certain:
When He comes for His own, He will have no trouble recognizing me… because my banner will be clear.
