God gives a song



I know sometimes there are situations in life when everything around me seems to be going wrong. It isn’t what I wanted or planned for my life, or for my future. I want things to be maybe just a bit easier. Raising twin boys mainly by myself (because my husbands job) is not what I had in mind for my life. After 4 years of wanting children and having beautiful miracles now my husband is hardly home because he works out of state for weeks at a time. Why would God do that to me? I cannot understand the sovereignty of God, but I can say God gives a song! And Guess what? I feel joy because I know it is from God. No, things haven’t changed “But I know He cares for me” and “I sing because I’m happy”.
Verse 1:
Why should I feel discouraged,
Why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be lonely
And long for Heav'n and home,
When Jesus is my portion?
My constant Friend is He:
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

Refrain:
I sing because I'm happy,
I sing because I'm free,
For His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

Verse 2:
"Let not your heart be troubled,"
His tender word I hear,
And resting on His goodness,
I lose my doubts and fears;
Though by the path He leadeth
But one step I may see:
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

Verse 3:
Whenever I am tempted,
Whenever clouds arise,
When songs give place to sighing,
When hope within me dies,
I draw the closer to Him,
From care He sets me free:
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He cares for me;
His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He cares for me.

Singing little boy


My little Walker, who is 10 months old was singing, AAAAAAA dropping the A sound high then low. Sometimes his voice cracked. A wise lady from church told me that I would learn how God feels about me through my children. Wow!! My little Walkers annoying AAAAA singing was beautiful to me and made me smile. That is how God feels about me when I sing!! Even though I don't sound good to others He still loves to hear my voice and it makes God smile! So make a joyful noise unto the Lord, even if you don't think it sounds good, it puts a smile on God's face.

Why am I not blogging more??? Well I guess I am just not commited like I would like to be! We moved to a different part of town in Sarasota FL. I am so blessed to have a house that has more then one room. I am so behind on all my "chores". Boxes, boxes, boxes.... I dread another move, although I would like to have our own place that we own someday. Glenn has been gone about 11 days now working in Alabama on cell phone towers. All that to say I've been busy!

The boys are 10 months now!!! Wow, they are doing good. Walker is somewhat under weight, he is healthy though! I am so thankful for that. I think of friens who have to take their children to the doctor every week. What a bless that I do not have to!

I had something great happen to me. A girl from PA wrote me a letter and is going to help me finish writing my story Lord willing! I cannot wait to post some more of God's miracles that he has done for me!
