Busy, busy I have been, with adoption papers, being a mommy to Hannah (who turns two TOMORROW!), trying to stay on top of things at work, thinking about the future, the here and now, then the future again... I am busy but I am so blessed. As my little Hannita turns two tomorrow I find myself being reflective of so many things. I think about all that I have experienced, where God has taken me thus far in my life's journey, and wondering what's next in store for our ever growing family. I have my moments of anxiety, fear, doubt, about many things, but at the end of the day, when I see Hannah hold her little hands together to pray, all of my doubts fade and I realize how absolutely beautiful my life is, because it is being directed by my beautiful God.
Listen to this song...hopefully the link will work. The lyrics move me.
Beautiful, Beautiful
performed by Francesca Battistelli
Don't know how it is you looked at me
And saw the person that I could be
Awakening my heart
Breaking through the dark
Suddenly your grace
(Chorus)
Like sunlight burning at midnight
Making my life something so
Beautiful beautiful
Mercy reaching to save me
All that I need
You are so
Beautiful beautiful
Now there's a joy inside I can't contain
But even perfect days can end in rain
And though its pouring down
I see you through the clouds
Shining on my face
(chorus)
I have come undone
But I have just begun
Changing by your grace
(chorus)
