yes, i am actually still alive. i obviously haven't written in awhile. life has been crazy lately. blogging has been on the back burner...actually, it hasn't even made it to a burner until today!
a quick update...i am pregnant and expecting a baby GIRL november 22! we are all very excited. i think jonah doesn't really like to think about it, but once she's here, he'll love it! he's already such a good big brother. he'll give her (my belly) kisses and say 'i love you'! it's very sweet. but if we ask if he wants a little sister, he says, 'no!' it's cute.
like i said before, life has been very crazy lately. well, i 'discovered' this song last week. have you ever heard a song and felt like the songwriter took the words straight from your heart? that's how i felt when i heard 'faith to be strong' by andrew peterson. it has since become the cry of my heart so i thought i'd share it with you.
Give us faith to be strong
Father, we are so weak
Our bodies are fragile and weary
As we stagger and stumble to walk where you lead
Give us faith to be strong
Give us faith to be strong
Give us strength to be faithful
This life is not long, but it's hard
Give us grace to go on
Make us willing and able
Lord, give us faith to be strong
Give us peace when we're torn
Mend us up when we break
This flesh can be wounded and shaking
When there's much too much trouble for one heart to take
Give us peace when we're torn
Give us faith to be strong
Give us strength to be faithful
This life is not long, but it's hard
Give us grace to go on
Make us willing and able
Lord, give us faith to be strong
Give us hearts to find hope
Father, we cannot see
How the sorrow we feel can bring freedom
And as hard as we try, Lord, it's hard to believe
So, give us hearts to find hope
Give us faith to be strong
Give us strength to be faithful
This life is not long, but it's hard
Give us grace to go on
Make us willing and able
Lord, give us faith to be strong
Give us peace when we're torn
Give us faith, faith to be strong
