Mary Did Know?

This song always gets me to sing along. The words, to me, are so powerful. My favorite is the last verse (of the Kutless version) always gives me chills. I just couldn't image being Mary and knowing that the baby that God had blessed me with was going to save nations...Save me.

Think about that.

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would one day walk on water?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would save our sons and daughters?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has come to make you new?
This Child that you delivered will soon deliver you.

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy will calm the storm with His hand?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little Baby you kissed the face of God?

Oooo Mary did you know...

The blind will see
The deaf will hea
The dead will live again
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of The Lamb

Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary, did you know
that your Baby Boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know
that your Baby Boy has come to make you new?
This Child that you delivered
Did you know
that your Baby Boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
The sleeping Child you're holding is the Great, I Am

Sometimes

Sometimes God calls you to do difficult things to further your relationship with Him. Letting go and letting God is the best thing you can do. Having faith in a world full of sin can be one of the most difficult things, but it is the most rewarding thing. God has so much planned for us. God's plan for us surpasses any plan that we could ever imagine for ourselves.

God Bless,

Missing

Do you ever have those days when you just feel like something is missing?

I have been feeling that way for a couple of weeks. Finally I realized that I was missing my family. I was so homesick. I only live an hour away from my family, but an hour is still an hour. Sometimes you need a hug from someone who genuinely cares about you, someone who genuinely cares about what's going on in your life.

I feel like I have just been down for the past couple of weeks. I mean, I am happy, but family was just missing. I read somewhere (don't believe everything you read, but...) that when you are unhappy for no reason at all it is typically because you are missing someone or something.

Well, I was missing my family.

However, today my mom, daddy, and grandma came to visit me at college. They took me to lunch and we went on some other mini-adventures. This was much needed family time. I feel as if now I am somewhat re-energized for school tomorrow. (The Spanish test that I have at 8am is not helping me.)

I truly have the best family. I love them with everything I am and I would do anything in the world for them. They have my back and I have theirs.

God Bless,
