O THE WONDER OF IT ALL
As
a mama my heart is full. My oldest son and his fiance left this
morning to return to college for their last semester before they
graduate. My son’s fiance’s parents were here as well and left
today. I am blessed to call them friends. Josh and Rebecca will be
married this summer and I am gaining a wonderful, godly daughter in
law as well as her Godly parents.God is so good. Over Christmas break
we were able to have a wedding shower for Josh and Rebecca
Since
they will be married in another state, many of our friends and family
will not be able to attend the wedding. The shower was a chance for
Josh’s friends and family to wish him well. As different people
spoke at the shower giving Josh and Becca well wishes and words of
wisdom, I was humbled. God is so gracious and puts the right people
and opportunities in our and our children’s lives. As we raise our
children and try to give them the right schooling and have them
around people who will be a Godly influence in their lives, we often
think we have failed.
Even when we can’t image how God works it all
out, He does. I am so thankful that ultimately God is in control of
all things, even when we don’t think we are being the parents that
our child needs. As I look at the children that God has let us raise,
I am in awe. Today is January 20, 2017. As I pray for my son and
future daughter in law as they drive south to finish one chapter in
their lives, and I watch the Presidential Inauguration on television, the hymn that comes to mind is: THE WONDER OF IT ALL..
Wonder
Of It All

There's
the wonder of sunset at evening,
The wonder as sunrise I see;
But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul
Is the wonder that God loves me.
The wonder as sunrise I see;
But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul
Is the wonder that God loves me.
O, the wonder of it all! The wonder of it all!
Just to think that God loves me.
O, the wonder of it all! The wonder of it all!
Just to think that God loves me.
There's the wonder of springtime and harvest,
The sky, the stars, the sun;
But the wonder of wonders that thrills my soul
Is a wonder that's only begun.
O,
the wonder of it all! The wonder of it all!
Just to think that God loves me.
Just to think that God loves me.
O,
the wonder of it all! The wonder of it all!
Just to think that God loves me.
Just to think that God loves me.
