"And they brought it to Jesus, and throwing their cloaks on the colt,
they set Jesus on it. And as He rode along, they spread their cloaks on the road.
As He was drawing near-- already on the way down the Mount of Olives--
the whole multitude of His disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice
for all the mighty works that they had seen, saying,
"Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!
Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"
And some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Him,
"Teacher, rebuke your disciples."
He answered, "I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out."
Luke 19:35-40
Silent too long, I am compelled to rejoice...
so I start counting again,
1146
because the gifts are too great, the majesty too marvelous, the love too grand!
For You and You alone
Awake my soul, awake my soul and sing
For the world You love
Your will be done, let Your will be done in me
In Your prescence, in Your power
Awakening
For this moment, for this hour,
Awakening

I thought I'd peak at my google reader real quick while I eat lunch, and what a wonderful surprise to see you back!!! I hope all has been well for you. The kids have really grown. As always, it is such a blessing to read your gratitude list.
I too saw you pop up in Google Reader and a big smile came across my face. Blessings to you, Heather!
Oh, friend, what a great blessing and encouragement you are! Your words plant seeds of joy and hope in me, helping me to remember what I am called to do as well... to be thankful in all things.
May He continue to help you pursue this path of sacrifice and intentional living. May He give you eyes to see Him moving and working and loving you through all things.
Much love to you today, Heather!
