ok - so, today I've been cleaning my house and doing laundry.......Jake was out of school today because of Presidents day - so I was off work too......I really wanted to sleep in today - but isn't it funny when you want to do that - they wake up at the CRACK......and, when I need him to get up - he wants to sleep until 9:00!!!!!!
While I've been cleaning - I've also been either humming or singing this song that we sang yesterday at church......the words are powerful (by Big Daddy Weave).....
I am sure all of heaven's heard me cry
As I tell You all the reasons why
This life is just too hard
But day by day
Without fail I'm finding everything I need
And everything that You are To me
Every time I breathe You seem a little bit closer
I never want to leave I want to stay in Your warm embrace
Oh basking in the glory shining from Your face
And every time I get another glimpse of Your heart
I realize it's true
That You are so marvelous God
And I am so in love with You
Now how could I after knowing One so great
Respond to You in any way
That's less than all I have to give
But by Your grace I want to love You not with what I say
But everyday
In a way that my life is lived
This song is SO powerful when you listen to the words.......Every time I breathe - do you realize how many times we take a breath? Reality - (I sometimes have to break things down to my reality to get it) GOD is right here - every second of every day - right here beside me.......and when my day seems unbearable or something happens with Jake and I wonder - will he ever be "caught up" - I find that everything is ok because he is a marvelous God and I am so in love with him......and REALITY - he is so in love with me.
How much he loves me........he gave me a miracle baby.......a baby that would require much love, attention and patience.........he gave him to me - even though I didn't deserve a miracle baby - he chose me to care for Jake - even though I was the rebellious kid, the one who didn't want anything to do with him (god) for a long time - he still choose me to mother one of his angels.......
Every time I breathe I get a little bit closer!!!!!
