Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to thee….
……How great thou art! I’m sitting in my kitchen. Chris and I were outnumbered today in the napping department. He apparently couldn’t sleep last night because I was snoring. (what?!) I slept SO WELL last night, BUT Chris seems to think that I have Mono right now… so literally I sleep and sleep and I’m ALWAYS tired and achy. Both boys decided they weren’t going to bed this afternoon… and I’m furious…it’s dark and rainy… PERFECT sunday nap weather. arrrrrrr……anyhoo… we still went to church today. It’s so wonderful to worship. Who thinks that they can truly experience God and NOT worship? This is something that is always confusing to me. I digress. As we sang how great thou art tears flooded my eyes. what a wonderful God we have. He loves us so much. I am so blessed.
Yesterday we celebrated our sweet baby girl’s first birthday. I can’t believe she’s one. I can’t believe we’ve been in Birmingham one year. God has been so good to us. How great He is….oh how my soul sings. I was flipping through an old notebook of mine trying to find a piece of paper to write out my grocery list and came across some words of a song I wrote right before we moved to Alabama… I had forgotten about it…it’s so fitting that I find it one year later. These words were as true then as they are now. Our God is the same..past, present, future…….His is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever Amen. I pray you all realize how great and mighty our Lord is…. and may all of your souls sing high in praise of Him today. May He reign in your hearts and forever be your Lord.
