Good morning friends! I found a new song this weekend that has really spoken to me about how complete God's provision for us is - even in the hard times! It's called "Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)" by Chris Tomlin.
Amazing graceHow sweet the soundThat saved a wretch like meI once was lost, but now I'm foundWas blind, but now I see'Twas grace that taught my heart to fearAnd grace my fears relievedHow precious did that grace appearThe hour I first believed
My chains are goneI've been set freeMy God, my Savior has ransomed meAnd like a flood His mercy reignsUnending love, Amazing graceThe Lord has promised good to meHis word my hope securesHe will my shield and portion beAs long as life endures
My chains are goneI've been set freeMy God, my Savior has ransomed meAnd like a flood His mercy reignsUnending love, Amazing grace
My chains are goneI've been set freeMy God, my Savior has ransomed meAnd like a flood His mercy reignsUnending love, Amazing graceThe earth shall soon dissolve like snowThe sun forbear to shineBut God, Who called me here belowWill be forever mineWill be forever mineYou are forever mine...
Listen to it if you can, it really is beautiful.
Things seem to be progressing well regarding my sick leave. Hopefully by the end of the month it will be approved. My surgery is to be the last week in October - I'm a bit frightened but excited at the same time. One of the things the song reminded me about is that I don't have to go through this all alone - He has been on this journey with me all along and will continue to be with me or what is left of me when all is said and done.=-D
Friends, I pray that your holiday weekend was blessed and restful. Know that He loves you so much and longs to take you to new levels of intimacy in your relationship with Him. Dive in - let Him remove the chains and set you free to love and be loved. I'm praying just that for you today! Kari
