I am overwhelmingly blessed to have such wonderful friends. Thanks for your countless joy, laughter, encouragement, hope, wisdom, and even tears you bring me through Christ.
Many times, I forget how powerful God is. I was reminded of that today. I was reminded that, no matter how many times we fail, He still gives us love, grace, opportunities, and hope. It was a great encouragement.
Good day, though I am trying to be better about not basing my emotions on my days.
Tomorrow, I should try to make it to class. Scratch that. Tomorrow, I have to go to class.
You can do it! :)
ReplyDeleteYour second paragraph about God's grace made me think of a song lyric that has been on my heart for the past two days:
ReplyDeleteYou are good
You are good
When there's nothing good in me.
You are love
You are love
On display for all to see.
You are light
You are light
When the darkness closes in.
You are hope
You are hope
You have covered all my sin.
You are peace
You are peace
When my fear is crippling.
You are truth
You are truth
Even in my wandering.
You are joy
You are joy
You're the reason that I sing.
You are life
You are life
In You death has lost it's sting.
Oh, I'm running to Your arms
I'm running to Your arms
The riches of Your love will always be enough
And nothing compares to Your embrace
Light of the world forever reign.
You are more
You are more
Than my words will ever say
You are Lord
You are Lord
All creation will proclaim
You are here
You are here
In Your presence I'm made whole
You are God
You are God
Of all else I'm letting go.
Oh, I'm running to Your arms
I'm running to Your arms
The riches of Your love will always be enough
And nothing compares to Your embrace
Light of the world forever reign.
My heart will sing no other name,
Jesus, Jesus.
My heart will sing no other name,
Jesus, Jesus.
It's "Forever Reign" and it is my heart song right now. Take a listen to it!
And go to class tomorrow--even though you're on a Christian campus, there are still people that you can share God's love with :)
Thanks for the comments!
ReplyDeleteBetsy- thank you for the lyrics. Those words are very encouraging. I am going to look that song up.
