way too long, I know....

I'm not sure where the time is going these days, but it sure does seem to be in a hurry! I realized it's been nearly a month and a half since my last post! Sheesh.

It's 12:47am, so I'm not gonna be long winded here. I am keeping my word to my cousin Carla that I would post today. =)

I just got home from a Jon and Kate Plus 8 party - Kate spoke at Willow tonight and then several women got together afterwards at a friend's house. It was great to see everyone and catch up on life. The worship at Willow was amazing. My favorite part was the emphasis on God's faithfulness. It centered around the song "Great is Thy Faithfulness." It was a song I very much loved growing up in church. I love hymns and I've been so blessed to reconnect with some old favorites these past few weeks at Willow. With the introduction of modern worship, I forgot how much I love the words of scripture in the hymns. It's a feeling of instant connect with God for me. I immediately thought of the ways God has shown His faithfulness in my life - providing people and circumstances always at the right times for me. Really, if it wasn't 1am, I'd share more. For now, I'd encourage you to reflect on the words of the song and God's provision in your own life...

"...Great is thy faithfulness, morning by morning new mercies I see. All I have needed Thy hand hath provided. Great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me."

Have a super day!
