God's not dead memorable quotes

-I don't even know what I'm doing here. I mean, it's not like you even know who I am.
You prayed and believed your whole life, never done anything wrong and here you are. You are the nicest person I know, I am the meanest. You have dementia, my life is perfect.  Explain that to me.

-Sometimes the devil allows people to live a life free o trouble cause he doesn't want them turning to God. Your sin is like a jail cell, except it's all nice and comfy and there doesn't seem to be any need to leave. The door's wide open til one day, time runs out and the cell door slams shut and suddenly... it's too late.
 Who did you say you were?



-It's like I am a convenience to him except for when my faith comes up, then he becomes verbally abusive.
-I am guessing he's bright. Brilliant. Handsome.
-Yes.
-And his attention makes you feel special, gives you a sense of completeness.
-Have you been reading my diary?
-Psychologists call it the Cinderella complex. It's not my name for it, so don't get upset with me. Guys are capable of the same thing. It's just they don't have a name for it. But in essence, you are looking for his approval to give you a sense of self-worth instead of generating it internally. 
-Don't most people do that?
-Yeah, a lot of people do, sure.
-But, using romance to shore up self-image is an unstable foundation. 
Do you believe God's capable of error, bias, or bad judgment?
-No.
-So, if He's incapable of mistakes and he made you in his likeness and image, then it follows that he cares about you, right?
-Right.
-To the point where God's only Son would willingly be crucified again for you, just you if that's what was necessary. Well, if He loves you that much, who cares what your boyfriend thinks?
To the wrong person, you'll never have any worth. But to the right person, you'll mean everything.



-I can't day. I am not ready. I am an atheist.
-I believe it's God's mercy that brought me here right now.
-I am dying. How can you call that mercy?
-Because that car could've killed you instantly. And I'm sure right now you probably wish that it did but I'm here to tell you that it's a gift cause the God you don't believe in has given you another chance, another chance to change your final answer.
-I don't want to die, but I am so scared.
-If it's any consolation, so was Jesus. He was so scared, he sweat blood. He asked the Father if it could be removed from him, but the answer was no.
-He says no a lot. 
-He gives us the answers we'd ask for if we knew what he knows.
-"For as the Heavens are higher than the earth so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts are higher than your thoughts, says the Lord."
-Exactly. 
So, the question is-stay with me- Stay with me. Are you willing to put your faith in Jesus Christ? Are you willing to take that chance?
-Yes.
-God is willing to forgive you of your sins, all of them if you accept his Son and ask him into your life. That's all you have to do is just accept his Son. Accept his love and receive his forgiveness right now. Do you accept him as Lord and Savior?
-Yes, I accept.
-It's alright. In a few minutes you are gonna know more about God than I do or anybody else here does. It's okay. It's okay.

The Irrepressibles - In This Shirt (lyrics)


I am lost in a rainbow
Now our rainbow is gone
Overcast by your shadow
As our worlds move on

In this shirt I can be you
To be near you for a while
In this shirt I can be you
To be near you for a while

There's a crane knocking down
All these things that we were
I awake in the night to
Hear the engines pout

There's a pain it does ripple
Through my frame makes me lame
There's a thorn in my side
It's the shame it's the prize

Of you and me ever changing
Moving on now moving fast
And this touch must be wanting
Must become free to act

But I mean Jake to tell you
That I love you and never rash
And I bled everyday now
For a year for a year

I did send you a note
On the wind for to read
Our names there together
Must've fallen like the sea

To depths of the soil
Buried deep in the ground
On the wind I can hear you
Call my name held the sound

I am lost
I am lost in a rainbow
Now our rainbow is gone
I am lost in a rainbow
Now our rainbow is gone

I am lost, I am lost
I am lost, I am lost
I am lost

Youth - Daughter


"Youth"

Shadows settle on the place, that you left.
Our minds are troubled by the emptiness.
Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time.
From the perfect start to the finish line.

And if you're still breathing, you're the lucky ones.
'Cause most of us are heaving through corrupted lungs.
Setting fire to our insides for fun
Collecting names of the lovers that went wrong
The lovers that went wrong.

We are the reckless,
We are the wild youth
Chasing visions of our futures
One day we'll reveal the truth
That one will die before he gets there.

And if you're still bleeding, you're the lucky ones.
'Cause most of our feelings, they are dead and they are gone.
We're setting fire to our insides for fun.
Collecting pictures from a flood that wrecked our home,
It was a flood that wrecked this home.

And you caused it,
And you caused it,
And you caused it

Well I've lost it all, I'm just a silhouette,
I'm a lifeless face that you'll soon forget,
And my eyes are damp from the words you left,
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.
Ringing in my head, when you broke my chest.

And if you're in love, then you are the lucky one,
'Cause most of us are bitter over someone.
Setting fire to our insides for fun,
To distract our hearts from ever missing them.
But I'm forever missing him.

And you caused it,
And you caused it,
And you caused it
