Confidence and Faith

Hebrews 10:35-39
So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For in just a very little while,
"He who is coming will come and will not delay.
But my righteous one will live by faith.
And if he shrinks back,
I will not be pleased with him."
But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved.

Hebrews 11:6
And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.


“Lord, I don’t want to miss the great adventures, you have mapped out for me by shrinking back in fear from a whole-hearted walk of faith”

10 years.......WOW!!

As of December 18, 2009, I have been married to my best friend for 10 years!

TEN YEARS!! WOW!! In so many ways, it seems like just yesterday.
Then again, we have been through so much, I'm not sure I even remember what life was like NOT married to him!! And MAN, do I love him!!!
I look at our wedding photos and I realize I didn't even know what love was yet. In these ten years, we have truly learned to LOVE one another!
Cause love isn't a feeling, it's a commitment to each other. A commitment that is made day in and day out! And I am committed to Lee Wood FOREVER!!! Marriage isn't easy, but it's most certainly worth all the hard work! We will not fear! We will remember our God, who is great and awesome! And we will fight for our family and our home!!(Nehemiah 4:14)


PS. Lee, you make me smile!! :)

Lord, We believe........

You are "Mighty to Save"

Savior, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever, Author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

Let these prayers, these cries, these tears be a "Holy Roar" and pleasing to Your ears!!

Trees of life are blooming
Your word plants the seed
And we see it growing
Your kindness leading to repentance
We see traces of deliverance
Lord, thank You for mercy

Oh, can you hear it?
It's the song of the redeemed
The pursuit of passion for the One who set us free
Oh can you hear it?
We're crying out for more
So listen to our song
It's turning into a holy roar
A holy roar

Rivers of renewal
Spirit whisper a revival
And send us rushing
Lord send us rushing..
Open hearts with hopes of unity
We're servants to love in lost humanity
Lord send us reaching

Oh, can you hear it?
It's the song of the redeemed
The pursuit of passion for the One who set us free
Oh can you hear it?
We're crying out for more
So listen to our song
It's turning into a holy roar
A holy roar

And we come rejoicing and singing and crying out to You Lord
Can You hear the holy roar
As we respond to Who You are and all that You have done
Lord with our lives, with all that we are
We return to You, Oh God
You are holy God

We lay down our lives, our songs, these tears, Lord
Can You hear the holy roar? These cries, these prayers...
Can You hear the holy roar? Still hear the holy roar
