Second Verse

I successfully memorized my first verse of the 24 Bible verses in 12 months challenge:

For the Lord your God is with you. He is Mighty to Save. He will take delight in You. He will quiet you with his love. He will rejoyce over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17

This verse is a bit easier to remember, but still a great reminder nonetheless and one I'm sure I will need to refer to more and more over the coming months and years as we add another little one to the family and the boys quickly approach their teenage years (or so it seems)

34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:34

For Tamara:

Light up the Sky by The Afters

When I’m feeling all alone and so far to go
The signs are nowhere on this road guiding me home
When the night is closing in
It’s falling on my skin
Oh God will You come close

Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me
I, I, I can’t deny
Oh I can’t deny that You are right here with me
You’ve opened my eyes so I can see You all around me
Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me

When stars are hiding in the clouds
I don’t feel them shining
When I can’t see beyond my doubt
The silver lining
When I’ve almost reached the end
Like a flood You’re rushing in
Love is rushing in

Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me
I, I, I can’t deny
Oh I can’t deny that You are right here with me
You’ve opened my eyes so I can see You all around me
Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me

So I run straight to Your arms
You’re the bright and morning Sun
To show Your love, there’s nothing You won’t do

Light, light, light up the sky
You light up the sky to show me You are with me
I, I, I can’t deny
Oh I can’t deny that You are right here with me
You’ve opened my eyes so I can see You all around me
Light, light, light up the sky
Light up the sky to show me You are with me

I love this verse and song. This song speaks to me in so many ways. I was doing well on the verse thing until a 7 pound 15 oz. made an unexpected appearance. However, it was another verse that I clung to instead!
