Hey everyone! Sorry to be so scarce. We are in the middle of getting ready for our trip to WI - leaving the 7th!

My poor brain has been strained with trying to figure out lodging(that is pretty much all set) and picking a puppy name...not all set....see my thread on the CB about a Puppy Name Challenge!!!

Jilly...love the song "There Is a Redeemer"!!one of my faves....thanks!

someday I'll have a song running thru my breain instead of puppy names....I hope

Love you guys....keep in touch.

Sorry that I don't have any music to post, but I wanted to share something with you all.

For 6 weeks our AM station is having remote broadcasts at various locations of a grocery store to collect items for local Pregnancy Centers. Anyway, my boss scheduled one person from our department to tag along each week. Today was my day to go. It was fun to get out and meet some of our listeners and see how well they support the station. But the flip side to that is that I am having some pretty intense things going on in my life right now (which is a major answer to prayer by the way). Today was okay for me because I was able to get out of the office and be at the remote instead of sitting in my cubicle thinking about everything.

You just see God's hand on the situation and see how He makes everything work in a special way. It is amazing that He knew what would be taking place today in my life and that He would have my boss schedule me to attend this specific remote. I hope I never cease to be amazed when I see God's work in action!

God is so amazing. I am so thankful to know the truth and for believing in Him!

Sorry if this does not make sense. But I hope it does.

Beauty for ashes
A garment of praise for my heaviness
Beauty for ashes
Take this heart of stone and make it Yours, Yours

I delight myself in the Richest of Fair
Trading all that i've had for all that is better
A garment of praise for my heaviness
You are the greatest taste
You're the richest of fair</Font>

I will run when I cannot walk
I will sing when there is no song
I will pray when there is no prayer
I will listen when I cannot hear

Sitting in the waiting room of silence
Waiting for that still soft voice i know
Offering my words up to the rooftop to Your heart
Trusting that this closet is where You are

Lord I know if I change my mind
You will change my heart in time
Sovereign Lord this time's from You
So I sit in the waiting room of silence
Cause it's all about You

I will fight when I cannot feel
I will trust when You don't seem real
I will tell when I cannot speak
I will step when I cannot see

Sitting in the waiting room of silence
Waiting for that still soft voice i know
Offering my words up to the rooftop to Your heart
Trusting that this closet is where You are </Font>

 

[EdiePA]

too little money and too much time left until my next paycheck. Trying very hard to keep going through the limbo of my separation and ex's cancer. The Jack Nicholson line from "As Good As It Gets" keeps going through my mind:

WHAT IF THIS IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS???? Don't think I could handle that -- I'm hanging on by my fingernails here.

So, not in the mood to sing, but here's a prayer I found.

Patient Trust

Above all, trust in the slow work of God
We are quite naturally impatient in everything
to reach the end without delay.
We should like to skip the intermediate stages.
We are impatient of being on the way to something
unknown, something new.
And yet it is the law of all progress
that it is made by passing through
some stages of instability -
and that it may take a very long time.

And so I think it is with you.
your ideas mature gradually - let them grow,
let them shape themselves, without undue haste.
Don't try to force them on,
as though you could be today what time
(that is to say, grace and circumstances
acting on your own good will)
will make of you tomorrow.

Only God could say what this new spirit
gradually forming within you will be.
Give Our Lord the benefit of believing
that his hand is leading you,
And accept the anxiety of feeling yourself
in suspense and incomplete.
---Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Hope this helps someone. I'm going back to bed and pulling the covers over my head! Please pray me for me and my money situation.

Edie

 

[JC2]

Oh Edie! Hugs to you sweet sister! I'm praying for you. I am positive that God will be true to His Word and will provide for all of your needs according to His riches in glory, by Christ Jesus - just as His Word says in Phillipians 4:19.

I also encourage you to read Psalm 91, Edie. Let that really penetrate your spirit.

We're here for you.

 

[Saphire]

Jehovah Jirah, my provider, the Lord provideth for me.
Jehovah Jirah, my provider, the Lord provideth for me.
The Lord provideth all my needs
According to His riches in glory.
He will give His angels charge over me.
Jehovah Jirah careth for me, for me, for me.
Jehovah Jirah careth for me!

I have had to lean hard on these promises of God many, many, times, Edie. I pray that you too will find Him to be faithful, even in this time of deep financial need.

I agree with JC2 that Psalm 91 is a wonderful Psalm to meditate on. Rest under the shadow of His wings!

 

[JC2]

Hi Saphire! I love that song!!

 

[JC2]

<Font color="deeppink">
Oh the wonderful cross
Oh the wonderful cross
Bids me come and die
And find that I may truly live
Oh the wonderful cross
Oh the wonderful cross
All who gather here
By grace draw near and bless Your name

We bless Your name, Jesus
We bless Your name</Font>

 

[JC2]

<Font color="darkblue">
I will bless the Lord forever
And I will trust Him at all times
He has delivered me from all sin
And he has set my feet upon a rock

And I will not be moved
And I'll say of the Lord

You are my shield
My strength
My portion
Deliverer
My shelter
Strong tower
My very present help in time of need

Whom have I in Heaven but you?
There's none I desire beside you
You have made me glad
And I'll say of the Lord

You are my shield
My strength
My portion
Deliverer
My shelter
Strong tower
My very present help in time of need

You are my shield
My strength
My portion
Deliverer
My shelter
Strong tower
My very present help in time of need</Font>

 

[Hemi-mom]

I'm praying for you too, Edie. You keep singing girl...He hears your praises through the tears and to Him, they sound all the more sweet.
He wants so much to be your ALL in ALL....Father, I am lifting up our dear sister Edie now and asking you to cover her in your love and with your peace. Give her a sense of your presence and your love and provision to her. Help her to seek you now and always and to lean heavily on ALL that you have promised her in Your Precious WORD. Help her to know that she is your desire and that for her growing you will allow nothing more than she can handle to enter her life. Be her strength and her source. May she allow You to carry her now and may she trust You always for what you have in store...for the beauty that, through her trials, you will create in and through her. May all that she comes through with You by her side make her stronger and ready her to serve You and be for You a testimony to Your great and marvelous restoring power! May she always be drawn to the cross and the marvelous work done there for her and may it always remind her of the continual work that You are doing in her life to bring her to where You want her to be. May she always follow the way You have set before her and look to Your precious Holy Spirit for guidance, encouragement and leading. I pray all these things for Edie, your precious daughter, In Jesus' name. AMEN!!

Missing everyone here and praying for you ALL!

Saphire, I LOVE Jehovah Jireh...what an awesome promise of God's supplication to us!

JC, thanks for singing "The Wonderful Cross" chorus and the song above! I'm going to go reread Psalm 91 right now!

Again...missing you all and hoping to see more of everyone, soon!


Another song for you Edie...


SHELTER IN THE RAIN/4HIM

How long have you been
Waiting on a little sun to shine
To take away the night
Hold on for you are never alone
Through the darkest skies
There is a guiding light

For our God is a refuge
Where the weary can run and hide
in times of trouble
He’ll be the calm in the midst of the storm
‘Till it passes by
Oh, you need to know

There’s a shelter in the rain
There’s a hope for your tomorrow
There’s a cover through the pain
When you’re underneath the weather
Jesus is the shelter in the rain

Sometimes when hope is hard to find
We’ve got to walk by faith
Until we see the way
Hold tight for we are promised in time
Those who patiently wait
Will never wait in vain

For we know God is faithful
He’s a fortress to run into
In times of trouble
He’ll cover us with the wings of his love
‘Till we make it through
Oh, we got to know

There’s a shelter in the rain
There’s a hope for your tomorrow
There’s a cover through the pain
When you’re underneath the weather
Jesus is the shelter in the rain

So tell me why
Why could you ever run away
From the cover out into the storm
Just know in time
The rain’s gonna bring a brighter day
And the clouds will be gone
But while you wait on the Lord

There’s a shelter in the rain
There’s a hope for your tomorrow
There’s a cover through the pain
When you’re underneath the weather
Jesus is the shelter in the rain

 

[Princess Michelle]

{{{hugs}}} Edie! I am so praying for you right now. I hope things get better for you soon, I know they will.

I hope everyone is doing well. I'm way overdue for a song on here, since this is one of my favorites I'll sing it and hopefully be back tomorrow to sing some more! I love you guys!


Peace, peace
Wonderful peace
Flowing down from Heaven above
Sweep over my spirit
Forever I pray
In fathomless billows of love

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

He is here, hallelujah
He is here, amen
He is here, holy, holy
Let us sing His praise again
He is here, listen closely
Hear Him calling out your name
He is here, you can touch Him
You will never be the same

King of My Heart: Michelle Tumes


All the castles underneath the sky

Fit with kings and rulers

Could never measure all this glory inside

It makes me sing when we're together

Oh, and His words igniting power

Oh, His sweetness fills my hours

All that You are, all that You do

Like mountains of treasure

Like an ocean of jewels

You rule all the stars

Make me brand new

I love You forever

You're the King of my heart



You could tell the finest fairy tale

Where peace rules in the kingdom

And I would tell you this is how I feel

'Cause He reigns with love and wisdom

Oh, and He hears every whisper

Oh, He cares for every creature

You're the King, You're the King of my heart

Above everything You're the King of my heart

yeah

You're the King, You're the King of my heart




been listening to her and Vanessa Carlton on the secular side,they sorta sound alike at times


small bit of good news: DBF and I will be together a year in less than 3 weeks!

 

[CourtasanSatine]

Thankful: Caedmon's Call

I ran across an old box of letters

While I was baggin up some clothes for Goodwill

You know I had to laugh that the same old struggles

That plagued me then are plaguing me still

I know the road is long from ground to glory

But a boy can hope he's getting some place

But you see, I'm running from the very clothes I'm wearing

And dressed like this I'm fit for the chase



No, there is none righteous

Not one who understands

There is none who seek God

No not one, no not one



I am thankful that I'm incapable

Of doing any good on my own

'Cause we're all stillborn and dead in our transgressions

We're shackled up to the sin we hold so dear

So what part can I play in the work of redemption

I can't refuse, I cannot add a thing



'Cause I am just like Lazarus and I can hear Your voice

I stand and rub my eyes and walk to You

Because I have no choice



I am thankful that I'm incapable

Of doing any good on my own

I'm so thankful that I'm incapable

Of doing any good on my own



It's by grace I have been saved

Through faith it's not my own

It is the gift of God and not by works

Lest anyone should boast

 

[CourtasanSatine]

Soul Tattoo: Plus One

I just know that I've never felt like this

And I know it's because You exist in my life

Like hope shining bright through the stormy skies



And that's why I could never turn away from you

I'd be some kind of fool to think I could lose your love

You know that's something I can't do



'Cause You're the answer to the questions

The reason to the rhyme

You're the rhythm to my heart when it beats out of time

I'm so thankful, Lord, that You are mine

It's true, that You are my soul tattoo



Lord, You know all that I want to do

Is to spend my life loving You

It's Your love time and again that pulls me through

And I want to say thank You



repeat chorus



Etched on my soul

Your love is so true

Always in my heart

In Your arms forever

Stamped forever

Here in my soul



repeat chorus

 

[CourtasanSatine]

one from Sixpence None the Richer



Breathe

Take my sorrow and my sin

I will run into Your arms again

Hold me Father

Once again my tears are dried

By Your perfect love that's river-wide

Overflowing

As I stand on its bank

With my arms overhead

I am overcome



As I breathe

The air of Heaven

Drawing in Your fragrance

When I breathe

I feel Your fullness come alive

Inside of me

You're the breath that I breathe



Covered by the evening sky

I turn my gaze to where Your kingdom lies

Deep inside me

A silent whisper in my mind

Sweet surrender to Your love divine

Peace enfolding

In the stillness I empty my soul

And Your healing presence flows



repeat chorus



It's taking hold

It's second nature when I savor..

When I savor...

You

As I breathe





((((Edie))))

 

[stamper]

Hey everyone!

Edie...hang in there! I'll be praying as well.

Last week our old church hosted a VBS run by the youth of Victory Baptist in Rochester, NY....what a great bunch of kids! DD went and helped on Thurs. and Fri. and DS decided to stay and participate on Fri. We all went Fri. nite for the closing. I'd have to say that this was the one thing to happen in that church that has been "great" in a very long time! So....if you hear of a VBS in your area run by these kids.....Take Your Kids - they won't be bored!(it was a sports theme). There were an average of 150ish kids each day and over 60 decisions for Christ during the week.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A song from VBS -sorry can't do the motions here

I've got peace like a river
I've got peace like a river
I've got peace like a river
In my soul (in my soul)

I've got peace like a ocean
I've got peace like a ocean
I've got peace like a ocean
In my soul (in my soul)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

ok....short song but atleast I had one

Getting ready to head on our trip to WI...leave early Thurs. If you think of it, prayers for safe travel, a restful time, fun and good time visiting with our puppy's breeder would be wonderful!

Hey Jilly, wish you had been here yesterday. We went to our fave ocean beach. Climbed the rocks and walked the mile beach down and back. Parts of wrecked ship were washing up and we collected some driftwood. It was cool and foggy and I hadn't planned on getting wet, so only put on shorts not Bathing suit. Big mistake....the lure of the waves is just too strong even with the 56 F temp. I ended up going too deep and had waves break on me and splash up and I was wet! I know you'll understand! Stopped a DQ for the traditional "Blizzard"....ahhhh a good day!
