Two Months Waiting
Not a whole lot to report. Just the changes that are already posted. But something to ponder -- We recently went to the Skillet/TobyMac Concert with the boys (which was totally awesome, by the way....). TMac sang some of his new songs, but some old ones too. One of his songs reminded me of something. . . he didn't sing the whole song "Irene" just the chorus, but it goes something like this . . .
Hush little baby baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight
Hush little baby don't you cry
Daddy's gonna sing you a lullaby
Everything's gonna be alright
The Lord's gonna answer your prayer tonight
He just kept singing those words over and over. Suddenly those words sunk in and spoke to me. Of course everything is going to be alright. As believers, we know that, but it's so easy to forget that in the middle of a crisis or situation. I think in a world of instant gratification, it's easy to lose sight of the grand plan of things and get caught up in one little detail or set back.
But we have to remember, all those little things and set backs were already figured into the grand scheme of things, unbeknownst to us. These little things are not changing our path or His plan for us or for our family-- He already figured them into the 'package deal.' There's no fine print or hidden costs in His plan for us -- he already PAID it in FULL -- and guess what.... It's a free gift. Have you accepted it?
Thanks Toby for reminding me of something I already knew, but had forgotten for the slightest moment.
