It's Obvious, I Have Blond Roots!

More like dirty blond.

I was cooking supper. I pulled the chicken out of the oven. I set the top to the pan on the counter and took off the pot holder to check to see if the chicken was done, it wasn't. So I grabbed the top with my bare hands, and of course burned my hand...and dropped the top!! (thankfully it didn't break!) That wasn't very smart of me, I know! But it really hurt!

How Firm A Foundation

How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word!
What more can you say than to you He has said-
You, who unto Jesus for refuge have fled?

In every condition-in sickness and health,
In poverty's vale, or abounding in wealth;
At home or abroad, on the land, on the sea,
As days may demand, shall thy strength ever be.

Fear no I am with thee, O be not dismayed!
I, I am thy God and will still give thee aid:
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee
to stand,
Up held by My righteous, omnipotent hand.

When through the deep waters I cause thee to go,
The rivers of woe shall not thee overflow;
For I will be with thee thy troubles to bless,
And sanctify to the thy deepest distress.

When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
My grace all-sufficient shall be thy supply;
The flame shall not hurt the: I only design
Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine.

The soul that on Jesus has leaned for repose
I will not, I will not desert to its foes;
That soul, though all hell should endeavour to shake,
I'll never, no never, no never forsake!

Our God is an Awesome God

When He rolls up His sleeves
He ain't just putting on the ritz
(Our God is an awesome God)
There's thunder in His footsteps
And lightning in His fists
(Our God is an awesome God)
And the Lord wasn't joking
When He kicked 'em out of Eden
It wasn't for no reason
That He shed His blood
His return is very close
And so you better be believing that
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

And when the sky was starless
In the void of the night
(Our God is an awesome God)
He spoke into the darkness
And created the light
(Our God is an awesome God)
Judgement and wrath He poured out on Sodom
Mercy and grace He gave us at the cross
I hope that we have not
Too quickly forgotten that
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Snow!!

Today I woke up at 7:30am by the sounds of my dad and brother talking. I sat up and looked out the window and what did I see?

SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course I just rolled over and went back to sleep, but that's beside the point!

Here are some snow pix. There was more snow in the road and in our drive way than there was in our yard! The first pic. was part of our drive way.

The Way, the Truth, and the Life

"Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me,In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know." Thomas said to Him,"Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?" Jesus said to him,"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."
-John 14:1-6

Last Post of the Year

I can't believe today is the last day of 2009! This year has gone by very quickly! I always love that moment of:

5, 4, 3, 2, 1 - (then everybody screams)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!

I'm anxious to see how the Lord works in 2010.


This is a hymn I've had on my mind lately:

Before Jahovah's awful throne,
Ye nations bow with sacred joy;
Know that the Lord is God alone,
He can create and He destroy.

His sovereign power without our aid,
Made us of clay and formed us men
And when like wondering sheep we strayed,
He brought us to His fold again.

We are His people, we His care,
Our souls and all our mortal frame;
What lasting hours shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to Thy Name?

-Isaac Watts
