Great is Thy Faithfulness

"Pardon for sin
And a strength that endureth.
Thine own dear Presence
To cheer and to guide.
Strength for today
And bright hope for tomorrow.
Blessings all mine
And ten-thousand beside.
Great is Thy Faithfulness!
Great is Thy Faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed
Thy hand hath provided.
Great is Thy Faithfulness,
Lord, unto me!"

It's one of my favorites, and has been in my head and on my heart BIG TIME the last couple of days. Probably because I am just witnessing over and over right now God actively answering prayers and working in the lives of so many around me(including myself and family!). Maybe it is because there are those close to me (including myself) who are waiting still for answers to come, and I needed the reminder that He gives us "strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow." Regardless, in this new year, I pray that I will be always reminded of the blessings that are all mine. Thank you, Lord, for your faithfulness!

This song got me through many months of waiting for postivie plus sign. "All that I have needed that hands hath provided..." kept me going for sure.

Love you!!
