Ok, I heard this song on the radio today. I hadn't heard it for awhile, and I love it. The guy is singing about a girl, but I really think that if you change the baby, and girl parts to God, it works as a Christian song. It's on the playlist and here are the lyrics. Enjoy!
Wave On Wave
Mile upon mile got no direction
We're all playing the same game
We're all looking for redemption
We’re just afraid to say the name
So caught up now in pretending
What we're seeking is the truth
I'm just looking for a happy ending
All I'm looking for is you
Chorus
And it came upon me wave on wave
You're the reason I'm still here
Am I the one you were sent to save
And it came upon me wave on wave
I wondered out into the water
And I thought that I might drown
I don’t know what I was after
Just know I was going down
That's when she found me
Not afraid anymore
She said you know I always had you baby
Just waiting for you to find what you were looking for
Repeat Chorus
Wave on wave, wave on wave…
Repeat Chorus
The clouds broke and the angels cried
You ain't gotta walk alone
That's why they put me in your way
And it came upon me wave on wave
Chorus
Repeat Chorus

3rd Song of the week
This is the third song of my song week. Are you proud of me that I remembered? I might have missed Monday's song, but I have Wednesdays song. I picked it because it was a song that was in my head all day at work. I was humming it, singing it, and singing it some more. It has very special meaning to me because it was the song that I sang at my wedding (when I married the best man in the world!) It's called "Endless Love". Enjoy!
ENDLESS LOVE
My love, there's only you in my life,
The only thing that's right.
My first love, you're every breath that I take,
You're every step I make.
And I, I want to share, all my love with you,
No one else will do.
And your eyes, they tell me how much you care.
Oh yes, you will always be, my endless love.
Two hearts, two hearts that beat as one.
Our lives have just begun.
Forever, I'll hold you close in my arms,
I can't resist your charm.
My love, I'll be a fool, for you I'm sure,
You know I don't mind.
Cause you, you mean the world to me.
Oh, I know I've found in you, my endless love.
And love, I'll be that fool, for you, I'm sure.
You know I don't mind.
And yes, you'll be the only one.
Cause no one can deny,
This love I have its fine.
I'll give it all to you,
My love, my love, my endless love.
ps...it's not my favorite version (I heard a really good version by Mariah Carey that I like better) but I do have it on my playlist if you want to hear it.

Song for Day 3 (oops)
Ok, day 3 is actually only the 2nd song that I picked. I am so sorry. Thanks to my wonderful sis-in-law for keeping me in line. =)
So, now on to the song of the day. I'm gonna pick a song that's been in my head for about 4 days. I sang it in a zillion different styles, keys, and voices yesterday while driving home. It's a well-known hymn.
How Great Thou Art
Chorus 1
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Verse 1
O Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds
Thy hands have made
I see the stars
I hear the rolling thunder
Thy pow'r thru'out
The universe displayed
Verse 2
When thru the woods
And forest glades I wander
And hear the birds
Sing sweetly in the trees
When I look down
From lofty mountain grandeur
And hear the brook
And feel the gentle breeze
Verse 3
And when I think
That God His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in
That on the cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin
Verse 4
When Christ shall come
With shout of acclamation
And take me home
What joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow
In humble adoration
And there proclaim
My God how great Thou art
I hope and pray that you realize how great our God really is. Will you trust Him today?
God Bless!

Music Day 1
I am supposed to pick a song for today...and I got sick while in eastern Kansas. So here's my song for today. It's called 'Healer' and I have two versions (not on my playlist) by Hillsong and by Kari Jobe. All I have are the lyrics...but search for the song to listen to it. It's a good one.
Healer
Verse:
You hold my every moment
You calm my raging sea
You walk with me through fire
and heal all my disease
Pre-chorus:
I trust in You
I trust in You
Chorus:
I believe You're my healer
I believe You are all I need
I believe
I believe You're my portion
I believe You're more than enough for me
Jesus, You're all I need.
Right now I'm hoping that I will be healed from this sickness...cause it's making me miserable.
Enjoy the song!

Life Put To Music
Yes, I know that's the name of my blog, but I was thinking about that this morning. In a way my life really is put to music. Music is such a big part of who I am that I think I could find a song for myself that explains everyday. I'm thinking about giving myself a challenge...for a week, finding a song for everyday of one week. A song that describes something from that day. Maybe I'll start tomorrow and go from Sunday to Sunday.
My favorite thing to do is sing my praises to my AWESOME God. He has done so many amazing things in my life lately, that it would take me forever to really share them all. To hear me talk about the things that God has done you would think that there had been some miraculous thing having to do with a disease, or even a baby. But to be honest, the biggest miracle that has happened has nothing to do with anyone but myself. And most people wouldn't even know if I didn't tell them, that my heart has changed. I am no longer an angry, bitter person longing for something I will never have. I am a person thankful for what I have and enjoying the life that God has given me.
But that is such a long story in itself....you don't want to be bored with all the gory details...lol.
I feel as if there is a song in my heart every moment of every day. When I'm at work, I hum or sing some kind of song. When I'm in the van, I find music to sing, and at home I either listen to my mp3 player or have a cd playing in the dvd player. So it shouldn't be hard for me to find a song for everyday of this next week. So those of you (I think it's only about one)...keep me accountable. If I haven't picked a song, make sure I get one picked for that certain day.
I really want to follow through with this. I might make it a worship song, I might make it a country song....you never know the style I might pick.
See you again tomorrow. God bless and have an awesome day!

I had to share this. It's my new favorite worship song. I can't wait to get it worked up and let my church sing it. It's so powerful.

Revelation Song
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on
Heaven's mercy seat
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on
Heaven's mercy seat
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You
Clothed in rainbows of living color
Flashes of lighting rolls of thunder
Blessing and honor strength and glory and power be
To You the only one who's King
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You
Filled with wonder awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your name
Jesus Your name is power, breath and living water
Such a marvelous mystery
Oh, You're worthy, mystery
You are worthy
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of kings
You are my everything and I will adore You, I will adore You
**I now have it on my playlist!!!**

New Start
Wow! Where to start? I'm gonna say that this is my new beginning in life. We have made a major decision in our family. It's a tough one, but a very peaceful one. We are no longer trying for other kids. Martie is our one and only. We're ok with that.
I have come to the conclusion that I have wasted enough time that could have spent doing God's work. Ok, those of you arguing with me...yes, we had to try so that we didn't wonder for the rest of our lives if we did enough. But it has been a very rough time for us trying. And it's very obvious that God has not planned for us to have our own children.
I should be very mad about this....but wanna know something? I'm not at all angry. I have so much peace about this decision. I'll be honest, I have never before felt this much peace about something. I have true joy of the Lord for the first time in my life. And I'm so excited about what God has in store for us in the future. I am so open and pliable, that I know He will lead us where He wants us.
My whole life I've always fought for what I want...I've never really searched for what God wanted for me. That has all changed. I want so much what God wants for me. If it's music, great. If it's a young girls ministry, awesome! If it's just hanging with my husband and my parents (who will have an empty nest the same time as us) then so be it.
Have you ever really made yourself pliable to what God has in store for you? Or are you like I've been....so stuck in your ways and stubborn that you are miserable because you are fighting Him the whole time? If I may make a suggestion....I would totally just give in and give it all up to Him. You can't imagine this joy and peace until you really experience it.
So on to the "new start" in our life.
May God bless you and keep you. May His face Shine upon you.
Love ya'll!
