A Song That Says It All....

It seems as if there's so much going on that needs prayer right now.

1) CORA (See "The Macs" blog on the left side of this blog if you don't already know about the intense need for prayer for little Cora).

2) Job Losses: So many people right now in the country have lost their jobs due to the economy. It's starting to hit Wichita now. "Cessna" (where Marc works) is in the process of announcing layoffs. Not only do Cessna layoffs potentially affect Marc but also one other guy from our small group as well as several other guys we know from Sunday School.

3) On a much lesser note, I've been having a bit of a time lately getting myself organized and adjusted to everything I need to get accomplished despite staying home part-time. At this point in time, I'm almost feeling more stressed than when I was working full-time.

Today, I was rocking Luke before his nap. All of a sudden, a wonderful song popped into my head that I learned as a child in Sunday School. I know many of you know it. Doesn't it just speak the truth? So Simple, Yet So Powerful....Here it is....

My God is so big, so strong and so mighty.
There's nothing my God cannot do (Clap Clap)

My God is so big, so strong and so mighty.
There's nothing my God cannot do (Clap Clap)

The mountains are His.
The valleys are His.
The stars in the sky are His too (Clap Clap).

My God is so big, so strong and so mighty.
There's nothing my God cannot do (Clap Clap).

When I sang it to Luke, he just looked at me and grinned. Someday, he'll probably do the motions with me. Oh, how cute that will be.....

On a completely other note -- today in the mail was a "Happy Mail Day" for me. I received my second necklace with a photo of Luke.

I recently met a woman at work who makes these necklaces. She takes photos from you of your child (or children) and puts them in glass for a pendant. I ordered one back in November. I just ordered another one.

This photo doesn't do them any justice, but they are wonderful to wear around -- especially if you're not with your child. It's a great reminder to always pray for your child or children as well as a simple way to show them off :)

She also does glass magnets. One of these magnets is Luke. The other is a magnet for the upcoming holiday of Valentine's Day.

If you'd like one, give me a call or shoot me an e-mail. I'll let you know how to get a hold of Dana -- the woman who does these.
