Video: “A Message To Myself” – Roo Panes

Going to get out of here, so many voices fill this place; Society is in my solitude.  Oh find me the corner of this great space!  If I’d heard every word, if I’d read every line upon the shelf, I’d still need a message to myself.

Searching for the elements, the roots of a fundamental love; Been reaching out to find my solid ground, ’cause I’ve never known peace lest from above.  So up in the clear, I’ll find the voice that I hold dear, and I’ll send a message to myself.

Song: “When It Was Over” – Sara Groves (with lyrics)

Oh love wash over a multitude of things, love wash over a multitude of things, love wash over a multitude of things; Make us whole.

There is love that never fails; There is a healing that always prevails; There is a hope that whispers a vow, a promise to stay while we’re working it out, so come with your love and wash over us.

Questions:

  • What are some different meanings of the word “tolerance”?
  • What is the difference between tolerance and acceptance?
  • What are some things we should not tolerate?  Why not?

Video: “Where I Want to Go” – Roo Panes

Well I’ve found what I need, in your arms.  And there’s nothing for me outside your arms.

Because your love takes me where I want to go!

Further than the eye can see, but nearer than the air I breathe.  I don’t need to see the end, to follow you all the way my friend.
