"A Mother's Song"

I see your mommy when I look at you
The cute things you say, the sweet things you do
I see your mommy when she was too was three
She’d too want a kiss, when she skinned her knees

I see your mommy when I watch you sleep
That beautiful face, my heart skips a beat.
I see your mommy in your innocence
She as a child is still now my princess

Rememberin’ about yesterday my how the years have flown
I can’t believe she has a son, raising him alone
In ways she’s still my little girl, I guess because I’m mom
It’s hard to give my baby wings but she too is now a mom.

I see your mommy when you stare at me
The way that you smile, a treasure I’ll keep
I see your mommy when you fall and cry
You both get back up, give it one more try.

I see your mommy when I comb your hair
You and your mommy, you make quiet a pair.
I see your mommy, when you run to me
I wish your mommy, still lived here with me.

Rememberin’ about yesterday my how the years have flown
I can’t believe she has a son, raising him all alone
In ways she’s still my little girl, I guess because I’m mom
It’s hard to give my baby wings but she too is now a mom.

Charlotte, NC

Well, it's been a while since I've posted anything because life has certainly been full for a long while.

Nine of us went to Charlotte, NC this past weekend to see Priscilla Shirer and Vicki Yohe. Priscilla is expecting with her third child and she's absolutely gorgeous. She is a walking Bible and it's evident that she seeks God wholeheartedly and knows Him intimately. Vicki Yohe is incredibly talented and her personal testimony about her adopting two children was very touching.

Thursday and Friday were two of the most relaxed days I've had since.... well, I can't even remember. On Saturday, I could tell I was headed back home because things began happening on the way back. I was able to take it in strides and with laughter due to my relaxing and non-stressful two days that I once again, am extremely thankful for.

I posted pictures on myspace for those of you who read this and would like to be my friend on myspace.

I hope you have a blessed week and I hope to get back to the weekly blog entries if at all possible.

Can We Talk? New study by Priscilla

Hey girls,

The new study by Priscilla is out!!!! We'll try and plan on doing this study sometime in the near future. You can check it out on Lifeway's site.



Also, be sure and invite a friend to the upcoming conference. Penny found out that there are still a lot of tickets available for the conference at the end of this month in Charlotte, NC. You can purchase these through Lifeway.

Worship Leader for Conference

This is a video I found dated November 2006. I wanted to post this because some of you have never heard of Vicki Yohe who is going to be leading worship at the conference we're going to at the end of the month. Enjoy.

Psalm 71:1-16

I must confess, today has been a very difficult day for me. I can't really go into it at this point but I thought someone else might be struggling so I wanted to share with you what I found. As I was looking out one of the windows on the back of my house, praying as earnestly as I knew how I happened to look down and found the March issue of "The Daily Bread." Because my eyes were filled with tears at the time, I couldn't focus on what month it said on the front of the cover. As I was staring into the gray sky with such depth, trying to see if I could reach God with my eyes the thought came to mind, "why are you looking so hard into that big sky as if you are searching for God when He's right here."

I finally focused on the "Daily Bread" booklet and thought, this can't be a mistake in my finding this so of course I turned to today, March 14. The passage is Psalm 71:1-16. When I read the first half of verse 1, I knew it was no mishap that I found it.

If you are struggling over a situation that has taken you by storm or caused your faith to waiver, I want to encourage you to turn there and read all 16 verses. It took me a while to get through them because I had to make many of these verses a prayer.

Be encouraged!

Unfailing Love

This morning as I was doing my Breaking Free homework I remembered a poem that I had written on 2/27/03 at 9 AM. It was based off of Ps. 143:8. Because our study is teaching us about the unfailing love of God, I wanted to share this with you.

Though mountains may crumble
and hills be removed
His unfailing love remains
When obstacles take us
by storm and surprise
His unfailing love remains.

When death we are facing
Good-bye must be said
His unfailing love remains.
When the cares of this life
are so hard to bear
His unfailing love remains.

In the darkest despair
when our faith is weak
His unfailing love remains.
Though we can't see clearly
just what lies ahead
His unfailing love remains.

In trust and believing
His promise is true
His unfailing love remains.
Accepting position
of being His child
His unfailing love remains.

In searching I find Him
His Word comes to life
His unfailing love remains.
In knowing He loves me
brings gladness and joy
His unfailing love remains.

I accept I'm His child
He made me an heir
His unfailing love remains.
Let me the beloved
now rest in this truth
His unfailing love remains.

Have a blessed day!
Kim
