Happy Birthday to Me!

That's right, I just had a birthday. It was quiet, but special. My family and close friends went out of their way to show their appreciation and love. It was very emotional. We really never get a full picture of how God is working through us, through me. Every year that God grants me is an opportunity for his purpose to be fulfilled in my life. So if you are struggling with what you are going through, if you do not understand "why this" nor the "why now," I encourage you to find rest in Him. He has a plan, even with the "why this." His timing is perfect. He has a way of using every circumstance we go through.


"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose" Romans 8:28


This being said, its only appropriate to play one of my favortie songs. I pray you enjoy it!

All I Ever Have To Be

by Amy Grant

When the weight of all my dreams
Is resting heavy on my head,
And the thoughtful words of health and hope
Have all been nicely said.

But I'm still hurting,
Wondering if I'll ever be
The one I think I am.
I think I am.

Then you gently re-remind me
That you've made me from the first,
And the more I try to be the best
The more I get the worst.

And I realize the good in me,
Is only there because of who you are.
Who you are...

And all I ever have to be
Is what you've made me.
Any more or less would be a step
Out of your plan.

As you daily recreate me,
Help me always keep in mind
That I only have to do
What I can find.

And all I ever have to be
All I have to be
All I ever have to be
Is what you've made me.
