• Song: Waiting Here For You by Jesus Culture

    It seems like so often we are not very patient people.  We want answers immediately.  Sometimes God has us wait for what seems like a long time before giving us the answer.  Faith can move mountains and at times that means we need to wait and let Him move those mountains for us instead of trying to do it ourselves.

    If faith can move the mountains 
    Let the mountains move
    We come with expectation
    We’re waiting here for You, waiting here for You

    You’re the Lord of all creation 
    And still You know my heart
    The Author of Salvation
    You’ve loved us from the start

    Waiting here for You
    With our hands lifted high in praise
    And it’s You we adore, singing Alleluia

    You are everything You’ve promised
    Your faithfulness is true
    And we’re desperate for Your presence
    All we need is You

    Hallelujah, Hallelujah, singing Alleluia, we’re singing Alleluia

  • Song: “Great I Am” by New Life Worship

    This song came to my mind recently while Jake was traveling for work.  I was getting worked up because our little road was busy with a lot of extra traffic one night (which is very unusual unless our family or one of the retired neighbors were hosting a get together), Skipper was barking a lot, and our old house was making a lot of creaks and noises.  Shortly after going to the door for what felt like the 50th time that night to see what Skipper barking about I decided to remind myself who was in control.  I had the Great I Am, protector, and all knowing God looking out for me.  Little creaks, noises, and a barking dog shouldn’t have me edge I need to trust in Him to keep me safe.  Awesome song with a wonderful reminder that we serve a powerful Savior.

    I wanna be close, close to Your side
    So Heaven is real and death is a lie
    I want to hear voices of angels above
    Singing as one

    Hallelujah, holy, holy
    God Almighty, the Great I am
    Who is worthy, none beside Thee
    God Almighty, the Great I am

    I wanna be near, near to Your heart
    Loving the world and hating the dark
    I want to see dry bones living again
    Singing as one

    Hallelujah, holy, holy
    God Almighty, the Great I am
    Who is worthy, none beside Thee
    God Almighty, the Great I am
