So a little bit of good news - Brian might be going back to work at Dillin. He actually has two different opportunities there - one job is in the mechanical dept (where he worked before) and the other is in the electrical dept. There are a few pros and cons with each position, but pretty much either one would be good for him. He may have to travel again in mechanics, but once I'm able to quit my job, I would be allowed to go with him. So we're definitely praying about all of this. It's really been amazing how things have worked out for us the the last few weeks . . . God is really holding us up and providing for us. He has put so many people in our path who are willing to help, comfort, support and pray for us. Brian has been so positive and faithful through it all - he's really taught me a lesson in perseverance. Alison Krauss sings these two songs that I absolutely love . . . they are a wonderful reminder of God's love for his people.
A Living Prayer
Alison Krauss
In this world I walk alone
with no place to call my home
But there's One who holds my hand
The rugged road through barren lands
The way is dark, the road is steep
But He's become my eyes to see
The strength to climb, my griefs to bear
This Savior lives inside me there
In Your love I find release
A haven from my unbelief
Take my life and let me be
A living prayer my God to thee
In these trials of life I find
Another Voice inside my mind
He comforts me and bids me live
Inside the love the Father gives
In your love I find release
A haven from my unbelief
Take my life and let me be
A living prayer my God to thee
take my life and let me be
A living prayer my God to thee
In The Palm Of Your Hand
Alison Krauss
If I could have the world and all it owns
A thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones
If all the earth were mine to hold
With wealth my only goal
I'd spend my gold on selfish things
Without the love that Your life brings
Just a little bit more is all I'd need
'Til life was torn from me
I'd rather be in the palm of Your hand
Though rich or poor I may be
Faith can see right through the circumstance
Sees the forest in spite of the trees
Your grace provides for me
If I should walk the streets no place to sleep
No faith in promises You keep
I'd have no way to buy my bread
With a bottle for my bed
But if I trust the One who died for me
Who shed His blood to set me free
If I live my life to trust in You
Your grace will see me through
I'd rather be in the palm of Your hand
Though rich or poor I may be
Faith can see right through the circumstance
Sees the forest in spite of the trees
Your grace provides for me
