A quick hello

I seem to have less time to post these days...

 

because I'm spending 5 days a week with this little guy...

and at age 1, Ben keeps me on the go!

 

 

Maya joins us 2 days a week...

which doubles my fun!

 

And visits from Jack and Eli are always a joy!

 

 

I wouldn't have it any other way, for all of this time with

our grands is an answer to prayer.

 

 

It seems I also have less time to visit blogs, and I hope to catch a few when time allows.

Until then, I leave you with one of my favorite verses,

from Journey Deeper into God's Word on facebook.

This verse is such a wonderful word picture

of His love and protection over us,

and I love how it has been illustrated.

 

 

Blessings to you,
   Laurie

 

Give Me Jesus ~ A Tribute to Ruth Bell Graham

I came across this video today, and I was so touched by the beauty of it.

It was sung by Fernando Ortega at the tribute to Ruth Bell Graham in December 2007.

I so admired Ruth Graham for her life in service to Jesus, and no one else could sing this as beautifully as Fernando Ortega.
The pictures and words of tribute captured Ruth Graham's love for her family and the Lord in a tender, life-affirming way.

I hope you will be blessed by it.

 

Give Me Jesus

 

In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise, give me Jesus

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus

When I am alone
When I am alone
When I am alone, give me Jesus

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus

When I come to die
When I come to die
When I come to die, give me Jesus

Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus
