This is my Anthem, This is my song...He's Always Been Faithful to Me...

If this doesn't get to our heartstrings, we may need to take our pulse...  Oh my goodness, I haven't heard this by Sara Groves in at least several years and it was on our Christian radio program, Bill Pierce, Night Sounds last night.   Wow.  I remember playing this at our secondborn daughter's graduation banquet at our church then.  The youth pastor was so sweet, he came and stood behind us putting his hands on our shoulders...We could not hardly contain ourselves, it was almost a water works;  photos of her growing up were being put up on screen as this song we chose played...  It's just as fitting today as it was then.  Late last night when I heard this, I felt strongly the Lord would want me to post this, so please be encouraged and comforted as we trust in the Father.

He's Always Been Faithful to Me

I'm reminded daily how God is so faithful, how He answers prayers and protects.  Just in little ways He reminds and does those little but big miracles in our lives.

 

Some shots from around the forest here, my sweet son in law, married to our daughter described above, he's pulling two precious grandbabies born months apart.  Our faithful and loving dog, Liesl looks on, she's such a sweetheart, so, so good natured...Isn't this scene a picture of innocence and just so appropriate to the song above?   God has been faithful to send two sweet godly son in laws to us.

One morning this week.

 

 

Morning by morning, I wake up to find
The power and comfort of God's hand in mine
Season by season, I watch Him, amazed
In awe of the mystery of His perfect ways
All I have need of, His hand will provide
He's always been faithful to me...

 

.

I can't remember a trial or a pain
He did not recycle to bring me gain
I can't remember one single regret
In serving God only and trusting His hand
All I have need of, His hand will provide
He's always been faithful to me

This is my anthem, this is my song
The theme of the stories I've heard for so long
God has been faithful, He will be again
His loving compassion, it knows no end
All I have need of, His hand will provide
He's always.... He's always been faithful
He's always been faithful... to me!

 

Special thanks to my blogging friends who are so kind as I have gotten to know some of you.  The pleasure and blessing is mine.  I appreciate those who read here so much and I thank God for you.   Your comments and exchanges especially bless my heart, those are extra bonuses from the Lord.

I've been quiet here, praying much and listening much.  It's been a busy time with family as well.


 

We remember....He's always been faithful.    This is my anthem...this is my song....God has been faithful, He will be again...His loving compassion, it knows no end.
