A Thread of Hope

Through Thanksgiving and the Christmas season I posted a series called, “I Will Sing“. It was a simple series where I shared a scripture verse and a song. Each were songs and verses that have inspired and encouraged me in this season of waiting for our daughter.

Each week it was been something I have looked forward to. Encouraging me to lift my voice in praise and hope-filled expectation. Reminding me that God is with us and that He is always faithful, never changing. He continues to sing songs of deliverance over our daughter and family.

I have decided to continue this series with a post once or twice a month until we bring our daughter home. A sweet sound, a thread of hope, a ray of light, in a season that is sure to bring days that can seem too quiet and hopelessly impossible. The path at times, dark and uncertain.

My hope and prayer is that this simple series will bless each of you, right where you are at.

Please feel free to leave a comment. I would love to hear how a song or a scripture verse has impacted you. Also if you have a song or verse that is meaningful to you, I encourage you to share. It may give me inspiration for a upcoming post.

Thank you for walking along side our family on this journey. I am looking forward to the beauty-filled plans God has in store for us in 2016! Our wait has been long although I know that the best things in life are worth waiting for. We wait with hope-filled anticipation for God’s very best!

May Jesus be your Hope, your Light, your Song.

Happy New Year with love from our family to yours!

Something Beautiful

“He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.”
‭‭- Ecclesiastes‬ ‭3:11‬

Something Beautiful Lyrics

In your ocean, I’m ankle deep
I feel the waves crashin’ on my feet
It’s like I know where I need to be
But I can’t figure out, yeah I can’t figure out

Just how much air I will need to breathe
When your tide rushes over me
There’s only one way to figure out
Will ya let me drown, will ya let me drown

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, ’cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I’m in reach
‘Cause I am down on my knees, I’m waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful

And the water is risin’ quick
And for years I was scared of it
We can’t be sure when it will subside
So I won’t leave your side, no I can’t leave your side

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, ’cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I’m in reach
‘Cause I am down on my knees, I’m waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful

In a daydream, I couldn’t live like this
I wouldn’t stop until I found something beautiful
When I wake up, I know I will have
No, I still won’t have what I need

Hey now, this is my desire
Consume me like a fire, ’cause I just want something beautiful
To touch me, I know that I’m in reach
‘Cause I am down on my knees, I’m waiting for something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful
