Grace by Laura Story

My heart is so proud. My mind is so unfocused.

I see the things You do through me as great things I have done. 

And now You gently break me, 

then lovingly You take me 

and hold me as my father and mold me as my maker.

I ask you: "How many times will you pick me up, when I keep on letting you down?

And each time I will fall short of Your glory, how far will forgiveness abound?"

And you answer: " My child, I love you.

And as long as you're seeking My face, 

You'll walk in the pow'r of My daily sufficient grace."

At times I may grow weak and feel a bit discouraged, 

knowing that someone, somewhere could do a better job. 

For who am I to serve You?

I know I don't deserve You. 

And that's the part that burns in my heart and keeps me hanging on. 

I ask you: "How many times will you pick me up, when I keep on letting you down?

And each time I will fall short of Your glory, how far will forgiveness abounds?"

And you answer: " My child, I love you.

And as long as you're seeking My face, 

You'll walk in the pow'r of My daily sufficient grace."

You are so patient with me, Lord.

As I walk with You, I'm learning what Your grace really means. 

The price that I could never pay was paid at Calvary. 

So, instead of trying to repay You, 

I'm learning to simply obey You 

by giving up my life to You 

For all that You've given to me.

I ask you: "How many times will you pick me up, when I keep on letting you down?

And each time I will fall short of Your glory, how far will forgiveness abounds?"

And you answer: " My child, I love you. 

And as long as you're seeking My face, 

You'll walk in the pow'r of My daily sufficient grace."

At this Time of Writer's Block, We Pause For A Brief Moment of Inspiration!

You know, sometimes I wonder why I even have a blog if I never update it. Seriously though, if I had time to post something, I DEFINITELY would have. I almost think there should be two of me so I can get everything done that needs to be done and still stay sane. lol. But thats not gonna work so I must resolve to the fate of acting like a chicken with its head cut off (or else hire a secretary).

Right now, I'm working two jobs (as well as other odd jobs), which keep me quite busy. It seems like all I do is work... so when I do get a day off (like today), I could never be happier. :) To all of you who don't have a job yet, I would advise not working weekend hours. It seems like all of the fun things your friends/family have planned always land on the weekend you have to work. :-/ Oh well, that's life, eh?

I really miss this growing, growling, little guy... I don't get to see him nearly enough.

I know it's blurry but I like this pic anyway. :)

I wish I could steal him, but wouldn't get away with pretending he was my own because he looks *nothing* like me at all. Darn.

Someday, when I have time, I'm gonna actually ride my horses. Until then, they're getting fat and lazy in the pasture.

So anyway, that's my random moment of blogging. Congratulate yourself if you were able to decipher it.

Until next time (whenever that may be)...

Randomness Of My Nebraska Trip

 I really love that kid.

 Flying is incredibly fun!!!

 When you have a niece who happens to be almost as crazy as you are, you tend to have funny moments together. :)

 Lego cities are lots of fun to make!

 Sliiiiiide!!!

 Her Chubby Cuteness

 Janae and her babies

 Look out below!

Meeting a new friend is awesome! Especially when you have so much in common with them!! Love you Bekah!! :)

A Post That Doesn't Have a Title ;)

Here I sit, staring at a foreboding blank screen that is screaming at me to write something. And it's not that I don't have anything to write, I just don't know where to start!

I could write about my time in Nebraska (which happened to be three, very short months)... or the eventful months leading up to that... or about how to make a Wooden Spoon Splintered Milk Shake --compliments to my brother... or how after months of playing the piano day after day, I randomly forgot which end of the keyboard had the higher notes or lower. DUHH!! :)


So before I lose all of my readers (if I haven't already :P), I just wanted to let you know that I'm still alive and am, in fact, trying to get a post or two ready!! Until next time!

I Love Being An Aunt

Baby nieces and nephews are the best! :D

Well all of them are great fun! :)
