Waitin' on a Miracle

I found this and it sums up perfectly where we are, what we are feeling right now. Just hoping and praying, all day and all night. Most of you have no idea where this is coming from. I'll explain in due time. For now, just pray. Please just pray.



I’m down to my last drop of faith


My last ounce of strength

My knees are worn

From waitin’ on a miracle

I’ve prayed, God, I’ve prayed

I’ve stormed the gates in Jesus’ name

Crying out night and day

Just waitin’ on a miracle

But I don’t know how much longer

I can hold out hope tonight

And I wish my will was stronger

But instead I’m just a weary heart

Waitin’ on a miracle

I’ve heard Your hand can calm a raging sea

But can You calm the storm in me

‘Cause that’s how it feels

When you’re waitin’ on a miracle

And my soul longs for the day

When I see the answer to the prayer I’ve prayed

And it’ll all be worth the wait

Waitin’ on a miracle

This is what Matthew West says about the song,


This is a song for those who wait. Waiting for your miracle to happen, for your prayer to be answered, for your light at the end of the tunnel. This is a song for anyone who can relate to James and his family, on two different side of the world, longing, hoping, waiting for a miracle. God is a God of miracles. He renews, he restores, and he promises to hear us when we call out to him. So, don’t stop praying. Don’t lose heart. Don’t doubt. In one way or another, your heavenly father will work a miracle in your life. He will answer your prayer. And in the meantime, he will give you the strength to take each next step, knowing each next step is one step closer to the miracle you long to see.

Happy Halloween!

The Halloween festivities are in full swing here. We attended a "Fall Festival" at my school on Thursday evening and today we enjoyed a "fall festival" at the girls' school. We've managed to keep their costumes a secret until Wednesday when Claire spilled the beans. She was doing so well at keeping the secret, I almost thought she wasn't our child for awhile ;) Claire dressed as "Pinkalicious" and Mya was a cupcake. My Mom and Dad bought Claire the book, "Pinkalicious" for her first birthday. It has been an on-going hit with our girls. They both have the entire book memorized. It is such a cute book where this girl named "Pinkalicious" loves pink. She eats too many pink cupcakes and turns pink, which she is thinks is simply beautiful then red, which is less than favorable. She eats her vegetables to turn alleviate her pain. In the meantime, her little brother is envious and devours the last one, then turns pink too. It is a ...

0.0

Yes, indeeedy do. 0.0 is exactly the amount of weight I lost this week. Irritating! Here's the breakdown: number of times I cheated on my diet--ZERO! number of times I worked out--FIVE!! (running, no less). Now that is a mean, mean slap in the face. After I picked myself off the floor and resisted the urge to throw the scale through my window, I've come to realize that it is time to call in the big guns. There will be no messing around. Through a very valuable (HA!--sense the sarcasm) inservice this year, I've learned that I am "Green," meaning logical, research based, problem solver, mathmatical thinker. I am applying the same thought and strategy to my 'get fit' adventure. There will be no relying on the treadmill to tell me how much I've burned. That thing lies, LIES, LIES!! Take for example, the fact that each time I worked out, I burned at least 300 calories--most often 350, my pulse was around 87 (which is pretty much a near death resting ...

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really ...
