it's been a tough weekend. A tough week. Even in the grand scheme of Marci things -my whole life - it's been one of the tougher ones. But through it, I have seen God's faithfulness, up close and personal. Just the way he sees our individual needs, in the moment, and meets them - meets us where we are...even if that's in the middle of the dark, or a bunch of crap, or our own self-loathing, it just blows my mind, every time. So anyway...what I started out today say was this: that if someone held a gun to my head and forced me to choose a theme song for my life...just one, I'd think I'd pick this one:
Blessed Be Your Name, by Matt Redman
Blessed Be Your Name
In the land that is plentiful
Where your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name
Blessed Be Your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed Be Your name
Every blessing you pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in
Still I will say
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name
Blessed be Your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's 'all as it should be'
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be Your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord Blessed be your name

My favorite will always be "worlds apart" by Jars of Clay. You've chosen a very very good song, but it'll never compare :-)
Hey Marc, God is Good! He blew me away today by his love and compassion! It was a hard day, but a good day as well! He's been right with me, holding my hand all the way.
Here's the chorus to a song thats been on my mind today! Its a Petra song from way back. it goes something like this
First Love, My First Love,
My Soul Longs After you.
Fisrt Love, My First Love,
I Want My Heart To stay so True.
Because You First Loved Me,
Jesus You Will Always Be,
You Will Always Be,
My First Love
You Will always Be,
My first Love
