All his wonderful passion and purity,
O thou Spirit divine, all my nature refine,
Till the beauty of Jesus be seen in me. | | |
| I have not written in a while. Its just been a busy time...I think all the time is busy. Never thought my life weould get like this, especially after last year being without work for months. Not complaining though, cause I know God has given me these opportunities and I am blessed!
We are now working on the Hedgren/Penhale Farewell and Baby Song starts this Thursday - 3rd semester.  I love it!
Hope all of you are having a wonderful week. God Bless!
Peace and Love... | | |

“As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother's womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things.”
Ecclesiastes 11:5
The funny thing is, I saw this Scripture this morning before I read Jennifer's entries...God is so "other". The other that we strive for everyday...but that we fall short of daily. But the beauty is that God loves us in everything we do. I was praying last night, and listing the places and moments in life that I know God loves me. He loved me last night when I had to play solo cornet by myself at rehearsal...and I actually did a good job. He loved me when a request for money from the Billy Graham Foundation came in the mail and I threw it in the trash. He loves me as I sit this morning wishing I could be back in bed asleep. He loved me when I was able to help Cheryl pack the bags for Older Adult Retreat this morning. He loved me last night when I had planned to call Lee and did not.
He loves me...He loves you in those great moments and those moments you want to hide away and keep secret. Let him know how much you appreciate that today. Pray to Him for the safety and the survival of so many in China and so many other places this week where natural disasters occured.
Love and Peace to you...

| So Florida had our Youth Councils this past weekend. It was wonderful...powerful...rejuvinating! I was able to take photos again and am always glad to document this awesome event! I will be putting my photos on Flickr ASAP...possibly tonight for anyone to check out what an amazing time we had!
As I sat here and got on the internet this morning when I first got to work, I checked out the verse of the day at Biblegateway.org.
My sheep recognize my voice. I know them, and they follow me. I give them real and eternal life. They are protected from the Destroyer for good. No one can steal them from out of my hand. The Father who put them under my care is so much greater than the Destroyer and Thief. No one could ever get them away from him. I and the Father are one heart and mind. John 10:28-30
I find assurance in this verse for anyone who gave their life to Christ this weekend. I find reassurance for those that came back to Him and laid their burdens down at His feet...and left them there for good. As many of us know, these mountaintop experiences, as Oswald Chambers calls them, are strengthening and life-altering. The difficult part is having to walk back down the mountain to your everyday life and surroundings. This verse is for each of us that need that little reminder...whatever Satan throws at you today...a week from now...a month from now, Christ has us in His hand with a firm grip. Satan - the Destroyer and Thief - does ot have any power over you anymore!
Praise God...Praise Him!
Peace and Love for the journey... | | |
| “The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.”
Hebrews 1:3
Does that not give you chills? I love reading Scripture with fresh eyes, a fresh perspective! Radiance...Glory...Exact Representation...Purification...Majesty. Oooo what words! Words that can only reveal tiny bits of our loving an faithful God. I hope this encourages you today!
Peace and Love... | | |
