Song: You Are Faithful by Hillsong
God is always and forever faithful to his children. In the good times and in the bad He is always there to lean into. We will go through times of celebration as well as trials in our own lives. We will also walk through fun and hard times with family as well as friends. We can be encouraged that He is in each situation. He loves us, cares about us, and continues to always be faithful no matter what life throws our way.
You are faithful
Your joy is my strength
Lord you are my God
I rely on You
I put my hope in things not seen
Your promises all true
Always you’re with me
Your hand will lift me
My trust is in your hands
Always you’re with me
Your hand will lift me
My trust is in your handsSong: Lord, You Have My Heart by Delirious
Very simple, yet powerful song. Who does your heart belong to? Is your focus on heaven or this world? Do you humbly seek God’s truth and wisdom for your life? Or are you walking blindly through each day? Take time today to give Him your heart and seek His wisdom.
Lord you have my heart
And I will search for yours
Jesus take my life and lead me onLord you have my heart
And I will search for yours
Let me be to you a sacrificeAnd I will praise you Lord
And I will sing of love come down
And as you show your face, We’ll see your glory here.Song: Your Grace Still Amazes Me by Phillips, Craig & Dean

Thankful for his love and grace that covers us even though we have done nothing to deserve it. It has been neat teaching the girls about God because they have that fascinating and amazing awe when we talk about the various events in the Bible. Hopefully, we never lose our awe of the amazing grace of God in our lives. Let’s never forgot the numerous ways He impacts our daily lives, extends us grace, and forgives us even though we fall short.
My faithful Father, enduring Friend
Your tender mercy’s like a river with no end
It overwhelms me, covers my sin
Each time I come into Your presence
I stand in wonder once againYour grace still amazes me
Your love is still a mystery
Each day I fall on my knees
Your grace still amazes me
‘Cause Your grace still amazes meOh, patient Saviour, You make me whole
You are the Author and the Healer of my soul
What can I give You, Lord, what can I say
I know there’s no way to repay You
Only to offer You my praiseIt’s deeper, it’s widerIt’s stronger, it’s higher
It’s deeper it’s wider
It’s stronger, it’s higher than anything my eyes can seeSong: Give You My Heart by Hillsong
There are a lot of times during our life when we are thinking about what is best for us. When we give Jesus our heart and lives there is so much more for us to give. Our agenda and schedule may not be the same plans He has for us. If we truly give Him our heart how much more important is it that we follow His leading. He has great plans for us if we would only allow Him to lead.
This is my desire to honor You
Lord, with all my heart, I worship You
All I have within me, I give You praise
All that I adore is in YouLord, I give You my heart
I give You my soul, I live for You alone
Every breath that I take, every moment I’m awake
Lord, have Your way in meSong: You Lead by Jamie Grace
There are times when I feel like I have be in control of the circumstances in my life….usually this doesn’t work out well for me because God usually has different plans for me. Much better plans actually than I have for myself! When I let go of my agenda, personal calendar, or whatever I want to call it that day and let him lead me it is amazing what can be accomplished. Thankfully, he11 is very patient with me. It is my prayer that all of will allow him lead us in our thoughts, words, and actions not only today, but everyday of our lives here on earth.
I’ve got waves that are tossin’ me,
Crashin’ all over my beliefs,
And in all sincerity, Lord,
I wanna be yours,
So pull me out of this mess I’m in,
Cause I know I’m wanderin’
Lead my soul back home again,
I’ve always been yours,And this world may push, may pull,
But your love it never fails,You lead, I’ll follow, Your hands hold my tomorrow,
Your grip, Your grace, You know the way,
You guide me tenderly,
When you lead, I’ll follow,
Just light the way and I’ll go,
Cause I know what you got for me is more than I can see,
So lead me on, on, on and on,
Just lead me on, on, on and on,As a child I heard your voice,
But as a girl I made my choice,
There is no other way for me,
I’m devoted to you,
You’re my peace on the heavy days,
You’re the warmth of an autumn blaze,
Your love carries me away,
And it’s never too soon, no…Song: “You Keep Givin Me” by Brian Littrell
There are so many reasons to be thankful in my life. I have been blessed with a wonderful husband, two kids, my health, extended family, friends and so much more. Many times its easy to look at the little stuff that drives us crazy but when we take an honest look around us we really have a lot to be grateful for in our lives.
So many reasons to be thankful
So many blessings that I can’t repay
And I never would’ve made it here without You
Sending angels to guide me on my wayYou keep givin’ me joy
You keep givin’ me happiness
You keep givin’ me hope
You keep givin’ me everything I wish
You keep givin’ holding me
When I’m about to fall
And if even all of that was not enough
You keep givin’ me loveI know that I’m not always easy
And I know I put You through some trying days
But in spite of all the worries that I gave You
You never let my Angels get awayHave I told You lately
How Your love has saved me?
It takes me to place I’ve only dreamed
I’m so thankful, Lord, for sending me angelsSong: “The Marriage Prayer” by John Waller
This week Jake and I celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary! YAY! It is hard to believe it has been 12 years it has gone by so fast! We have created so many amazing memories together and I look forward to making many more as we journey through the years together. God has been good to us and faithful even in the storms. I am very thankful for a wonderful husband. Jake has been extremely loving, kind, and patient with me even when I don’t deserve it. I am very blessed. As I was thinking about all our years together I wanted to find a song in celebration of our anniversary week. I want both our marriage to continue growing stronger as well as our personal relationships with God and this song says it well.
