stuck in my head

You brought me out
You took me in
to make me Your child
You gave all you could give
how could i ever
thank You for this?

well i love You
over and over again
and i praise You
over and over again
and i need You
over and over again
my Lord, my Father, my Friend


This song helped me get through the day today. I was feeling sick but i knew that i had to go to work anyway. I started singing this softly at the busstop, a sacrifice to the Lord, and despite the many stressful things that happened to me today i never lost my cool. My feet and back feel a lot better today and i'm not running a fever like i have the past two nights. Thank you to everyone who has been keeping me in their prayers.

life verses

We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they are good for us--they help us learn to endure. And endurance develops strength of character in us, and character strengthens our confident expectation of salvation. And this expectation will not disappoint us. For we know how dearly God loves us, because He has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with His love.
~ Romans 5:3-5, NLT

Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance: perseverance, character: and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us.
~ Romans 5:3-5, NIV
