Almighty God my redeemer
My hiding place my safe refuge, no other name like Jesus
No power can stand against You.
My feet are planted on this rock
And I will not be shaken
My hope it comes from You alone
My Lord and my salvation
Your praise is always on my lips
Your word is living in my heart
And I will praise You with a new song, My soul will bless You Lord
You fill my life with greater joy
Yes I delight myself in You
And I will praise You with a new song, My soul will bless You, Lord
When I am weak, you make me strong
When I'm poor, I know I'm rich for in the power of Your name
All things are possible
All things are possible
All things are possible
All things are possible
My hiding place my safe refuge, no other name like Jesus
No power can stand against You.
My feet are planted on this rock
And I will not be shaken
My hope it comes from You alone
My Lord and my salvation
Your praise is always on my lips
Your word is living in my heart
And I will praise You with a new song, My soul will bless You Lord
You fill my life with greater joy
Yes I delight myself in You
And I will praise You with a new song, My soul will bless You, Lord
When I am weak, you make me strong
When I'm poor, I know I'm rich for in the power of Your name
All things are possible
All things are possible
All things are possible
All things are possible

If you're feeling discouraged or just facing some tall mountains, turn this song up and sing along at the top of your lungs! That's what we did over here tonight.
I'm dedicating this song to my dear friend, T, who's waiting on the Lord to move His mighty hand in her life. "You're not alone, sweet friend! We're holding our collective breath over here, too, eyes glued on Him, watching and waiting for His next move."
Today has been a good day... I pretty much always say that, don't I? That's because it's true! With God at the helm, every day is good. It may not always be an easy one, and things don't usually go the way we plan, but every day with the Lord is blessed because HE is such an excellent Father and friend. Because of Him, we're never alone and we need never fear tomorrow. That's a good reason to rejoice, don't you think?
So, back to today. It was good. hehe! But I was a bit off kilter all day long. Not necessarily in a bad way, just not feeling as focused as I normally am. Things started out well with morning chores, breakfasts, and Bible studies. Then we started Monday chores... That went well for awhile, and then... well... I lost focus. It just seemed there were so many distractions, and before I knew it, it was almost 2 in the afternoon and the kids hadn't even started school yet!
I finally got the kids going on their schoolwork and I called my dear friend, T. We talked for a long time while I finished my Monday chores and other pressing duties. You'd think talking on the phone would distract me from my work, but I just throw my headset on so my hands are free, and the wonderful conversation with sweet friends keeps me motivated, and the time flies by. I love it!
I had all kinds of plans for today, some of which I didn't accomplish. But we got the important things done, and we had fun doing them. I spent hours talking to a very special friend, my kids enjoyed *not* starting school on time.... and Husband took me out to dinner because preparing a new and imaginative meal was one of the things on my list I never got to.
See? It was a good day!
Sweet dreams, Jellybeans!

Sometimes we all have difficult days or moments. As long as we continue to look to the Lord for his wisdom and guidance, we can and will get through anything. Even at that very moment when it doesn't seem possible, He will get you through it!

Dear Joy,
I'm waiting on pins & needles for your next installment of Cooking w/ Joy.
I think you might be trapped in the pantry pondering "oh, what can I entertain them by making this time", lol. I'd like to send out the officials, but I'm not sure who to call: Betty Crocker, Martha Stewart, Paula Deane, Rachel Ray...oh, wait, maybe missing persons is a better place to start.
Bring back our fabulous blogger!!!
