The last few days, as I've reflected on our sweet Hudson's words of encouragement,
"All day long I'll praise and honor You, oh God, for all that You have done for me"
Psalm 71:8
I've been reminded that no matter how long, hard or frustrating my trial may be, my focus should remain on God...His love, kindness, grace, sovereignty and suffiency. Too often, I get bogged down by circumstances and lose my focus. And then, I'm reminded; if He did nothing more than forgive my sins and give me eternal life with Him...which is so much more than I deserve....that should be enough! Yet, He has done abundantly more!!!
You all know how much music ministers to me and the last few days this song has been on my heart and in my head:

How Can I Keep From Singing
Chris Tomlin
There is an endless song
Echoes in my soul
I hear the music ring
And though the storms may come
I am holding on
To the Rock I cling
How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing
I will lift my eyes
In the darkest night
For I know my Savior lives
And I will walk with You
Knowing You'll see me through
And sing the songs You give
How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing
I can sing in the troubled times
Sing when I win
I can sing when I lose my step
And fall down again
I can sing 'cause You pick me up
Sing 'cause You're there
I can sing 'cause You hear me, Lord
When I call to You in prayer
I can sing with my last breath
Sing for I know
That I'll sing with the angels
And the saints around the throne
How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart ....
I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart ....
I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart .... want to sing
Christie
