It covers me.

Yet again, God has just been so constant and faithful to me. I'm just, I'm so thankful for Him. Even on the days when I don't sense Him, I know He's here, because peace comes; eventually at least.

God has given me two songs this week which summarize His incredible love for me, even throughout my simple turmoil, and yours as well.

Don’t worry about it

My dear precious child,
You’ve got a lot on your mind
You’re not sleeping through the night
Tomorrow seems daunting
Even thought it’s not here yet, it’s haunting you
But don’t worry about it

I came that you may have life
I came that you may have love (only from above)
I came here to you for you

My dear precious child,
I have a plan for you life
So why do you lie awake?
Questioning my omniscient power
Your thoughts are cowering over you
But don’t worry about it

I came that you may have life
I came that you may have love (only from above)
I came here to you for you

Does worrying add a second to your day?
No, it simply steals another away.
I came and I have never left
Trust in me, and be filled with peace
And don’t worry about it

I came that you may have life
I came that you may have love (only from above)
I came here to you for you

So don’t worry about it
Don’t worry about it
Don’t worry about it

Love

My soul is on the floor
My heart just walked out the door
My mind is in a disarray
My body wants to run away.

When I get to this point the only option is to
Get down on my knees and hear the voice that says to me

Welcome back, it’s been a while
But I’ve been with you all along
I love you now and I always have and I always will
Take my hand, get off the floor
Walk back through my door
And know full well that you are loved

My soul is unaware
My hearts barely there
My mind is at stake
My body just needs a break

When I get to this point the only option is to
Get down on my knees and hear the voice that says to me

Welcome back, it’s been a while
But I’ve been with you all along
I love you now and I always have and I always will
Take my hand, get off the floor
Walk back through my door
And know full well that you are loved

You are loved by the King
He created everything
So open up your heart and soul.
He’s beckoning

Welcome back, it’s been a while
But I’ve been with you all along
I love you now and I always have and I always will
Take my hand, get off the floor
Walk back through my door
And know full well that you are loved

I can't say I know what'll happen tomorrow, either the one that will come after this sleep, or the ones that will come in fall, but I'm learning that it's okay to live for today. It's actually the best thing to do.

I can mourn yesterday forever, and sometimes that is completely necessary, but God's comfort comes when we need it, and slowly we can get up off the floor and receive His love.

I hope you all are having a great Easter weekend. Mine has been rather good. I played the song, 'Why' by Nichole Nordeman yesterday in the Good Friday service and sang on the worship team. It was fun to simply sing. Sometimes I get too comfortable because I have the piano to rely on and kinda hide behind, but it was good. I got to sing harmony, which I love doing, so it was good.

I love you all and miss you!

See you soon!!!!
