a life blessed

♫ "Stir in me a love that's deep, a love that's wide, a love that's sweet; and help me Lord to never keep it to myself. I wanna stay close to You. It's really that simple, I wanna stay close to You my whole life long."  ♫ It really IS that simple, and that is my desire. https://youtu.be/WjT61SrGYGI

We must always remember....There is no new thing under the sun. God is, and will always be, in control. Everything He allows is for our growth and for His glory. Looking upward, we can remember this.  Looking any other direction, we lose sight of this fact. In those not so sunny moments that God allows, whatever they look like, I just pray that I carry myself with grace and in a manner worthy of the Gospel of Christ, standing fast in one Spirit...with one purpose of bringing glory to Christ. Through it all, my eyes are on You, and it is well... https://youtu.be/YNqo4Un2uZI
