• Song: “How He Loves Us” by David Crowder

    Isn’t it great to know that we are loved by our heavenly Father!  I am thankful for His never ending love, grace, and redemptive work in my life.  It seems like I mess up more often than necessary yet He extends mercy to me every day.

    He is jealous for me,
    Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
    Bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy.
    When all of a sudden,
    I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
    And I realize just how beautiful You are,
    And how great Your affections are for me.

    And oh, how He loves us oh,
    Oh how He loves us,
    How He loves us all

    And we are His portion and He is our prize,
    Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
    If His grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking.
    And Heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss,
    And my heart turns violently inside of my chest,
    I don’t have time to maintain these regrets,
    When I think about, the way…

    Oh, how He loves us oh,
    Oh how He loves us,
    How He loves us all
    How He loves

  • Song: “Glory Of It All” by David Crowder Band

    Jake and I were able to hear the David Crowder Band in concert at the Winter Jam 2011 in Greenville, SC.  The phrase “We Will Never Be the Same” really stood out to me in this song.  Do I look like everyone else or is there something different about me?  I have the privilege to know the one true God, yet there are days I am convinced no one sees His love, kindness and mercy in my life.  He knew me before I was born and will be with me until the end of time.  May we reflect His goodness in our lives because he truly is the one who deserves our praise “for the glory of it all”!
