I found this book challenge on a Facebook page and challenged myself and my mom to complete it this year. I will post about each book as it is read, be it a wonderful experience or a book I wouldn't recommend.
I am starting off with "a book by a favorite author" :) book review to follow!

{31 Days of Worship- Day 8} The Least I can Do

Image
I usually don't buy every song that I like, mainly because I don't have the unlimited funds to stock up on music as much as I would like. But when I heard this song on the radio a few times I had to get it. It truly brings out the true meaning of worship. We are given so much and there is no possible way that we could repay Him for all He has done. He deserves everything we could possibly give Him and the least we could do truly is falling on our knees to worship Him. We owe Him so much, things we can't even hope to Give. all we can give Him is our worship and Adoration. And he LOVES it! (I apologize that I could not find a link for this song, it isn't online and I'm not sure why!) The Least I can Do- Mark Roach You sent Your Son so tender mild The King of all Kings, the face of a child The Savior who'd typify our wildest dreams come true The least I can do is worship You The portrait of selflessness you serve You lavishly give grace undeserv...

{31 Days of Worship- Day 10} Tears

Image
It is so easy to worship the Lord when everything seems perfect. But what about when everything is falling apart? What about when we've lost all hope? How are we supposed to give God praise when we can't find anything to sing about? At times like this I have a few songs that help me cry out to Him in worship, even when it hurts the most. The way of this world is to crumble when we are faced with something difficult. When things are impossible to handle most people give up. What makes us different from everyone else is that when we are at our lowest we give God even more praise. It helps us realize that we are not alone, that someone is carrying us through our darkest times. And as we praise Him, it opens our skies allowing us to not only view our situation with a joyful spirit, but it brings us through to the other side. When The Tears Fall- Newsboys I've had questions without answers I've known sorrow, I have known pain But there's one thing that I cli...

Cherish

A single word can say so much. I have been thinking of a word lately. Cherish . When glancing through the definition these defining words stood out: protect, care for, love, hold, keep, dear. I had the great pleasure of attending my cousin's wedding yesterday, and the word Cherish became quite vivid to me. I looked at my little loves and saw their wedding days, far away and yet so very close. While my cousin was dancing with my aunt I found myself swaying with my little boy and holding him ever so close, wishing the moment would live forever. I looked over at my husband holding our little girl with the same look in his eyes. I realized that until then I had never truly known the meaning of the word cherish . I have known love, remember, even holding dear, but have I really known Cherish? This life moves onward so swiftly that one moment of busyness can result in years of forgotten moments. I cannot keep my precious ones little forever, but I can Cherish what I have with them in e...
