A heart filled with Praise!

I'm not sure why it is so hard to believe when God does amazing things for us. We pray for money to come in, but as it does I can't believe it! I'm learning a valuable lesson about my faith right now...or rather my lack of faith!
I had the priviledge of being a part of an amazing wedding the other day! I had the further priviledge of listening to an awesome (truly awesome) arrangement of Amazing Grace, My Chains are Gone sung by a man who would tell you he is noone special just Redeemed! My heart was full from that, but then he sang His Eye is on the Sparrow at the reception and I was truly rebuked. I pray and I talk "BIG" when people ask how it is going, but in my heart I don't believe that God is going to provide the money needed for Baby Radford. What a hypocrite I am.
Another song has been running through my mind this week (probably because Pete is singing it incessantly). Here are the lyrics...I hope it blesses your heart like it has mine.

Blessed be your name
in the land that is plentiful.
Where Your streams of abudance flow
blessed by Your name.
Blessed be Your name
when I'm found in the desert place
though I walk through the wilderness
blessed by Your name.
Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise.
When the darkness closes in, Lord
still I will say...
Blessed the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name.
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
Blessed be Your glorious name.
Blessed be Your name
when the sun's shining down on me,
when the world's all as it should be
Blessed be Your name.
Blessed be Your name
on the road marked with suffering
though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name.
Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise.
When the darkness closes in, Lord
still I will say...
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name.
Blessed be the name of the Lord,
Blessed be Your glorious name.

I hope you are praising the Lord with me today!! His eye is on the Sparrow...and I know He watches me!! GLORY!

  1. Thinking and praying for the Radfords today! Soon you will have a sweet little face to piece all of this together. God is doing a great thing through you. What a joy to watch this journey unfold for you again.
