Comfort Food and Missing You...

Ugh, today was good but kinda long. I'm enjoying my job, but there are always frustrations throughout the day. God has seriously given me peace and a congnizance that I could just simply not even begin to claim as myself. I know that I have people praying for me and it shows up inumerable times throughout my day. If you are one of those people, thank you!

Still, all I wanted to do today was curl up and have comfort food. I just miss so many people...from last summer, Bluffton, home, my suites...just want to see people and laugh again. :)

Anyway, all is well, but I could use prayers for discernment and the right words for everything I'll deal with this summer.

Praises and praises to God for all He's done thus far!!

I Have Never Loved You More -- Nichole Nordeman

Well, you could take a cup and fill it up
And just keep on filling til it all comes
spilling down the sides
That's what You do in my life

Or you could watch the sky at sunrise
And see the clouds turn shades I never
knew could make me want to cry
That's what You do in my life
Never mind moderation
You exceed my expectations

I have never loved You more
'Cause You have never loved me less
Than the day before, or the day before
I have never loved You more

Have you ever tried to count the stars way up past Mars?
It will blow your mind
Don't even try to think about infinity
But that's how You love me

Much more than I can contain
A balloon once tethered to the ground,
But could not stick around to stay
Free to fly away
Never mind moderation
You exceed my expectations

I have never loved You more
'Cause You have never loved me less
Than the day before, or the day before
I have never loved You more

I have never dared to dream
Beyond what I've already seen
The day before, or the day before
I have never loved You more

Exceedingly, abundantly more

All I know...

I don't know how the stars hang
Or how there's night and then there's day
I dont know how you spoke into the black
And made it all obey

All I know is the bleeding in my heart
And the healing in your touch
All I know is that you gave everything
So let that be enough
'Cause it's all I know

I dont know how your love works
How you cover me in grace
I dont know how you swallow all I am
When I can't stand my taste

All I know is the bleeding in my heart
And the healing in your touch
All I know is that you gave everything
So let that be enough
'Cause it's all I know

I can't explain your mystery
But I know the answer

All I know is the bleeding in my heart
And the healing in your touch
All I know is that you gave everything
So let that be enough
'Cause it's all I know
