Aidan sings

Lamentations 3:22,24

"The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease,

for His compassions never fail.

They are new every morning;

Great is Your faithfulness.

"The LORD is my portion," says my soul,

"Therefore I have hope in Him."

^{Proverbs 18:10}

^{"The name of the Lord IS a strong tower, the righteous run into it and are safe"}

Sometimes being a child is a great blessing. Sometimes watching a child is a greater blessing. 

The boys have a pretty big event coming up tomorrow. Something, that as their mama just rips my heart to bits thinking about. I can't go with them tomorrow, I can't hold there hands. I can't take away the pain, fear, embarrassment or discomfort they feel. But what I CAN do is remind them that even though mommy can't be with them, they won't be alone. Aidan has Psalms 56:3 written on a piece of paper that he can tuck into his pocket and carry with him, and I told him to pick a song so he can sing in his head if he gets nervous or scared tomorrow... this is what he picked.... and this is the way we ended our night.

Kutless-Strong Tower

(click play button to hear my boy sing)
When I wander through the desert
and I'm longing for my home
all my dreams have gone astray
when I'm stranded in the valley

and I'm tired and alone

 it seems like I've lost my way

I go running to Your mountain


You are my strong tower
shelter over me
beautiful and  mighty
everlasting King
You are my strong tower
fortress when I'm weak
Your name is true and holy
and your face is all I seek


In the middle of my darkness
in the midst of all my fear
Your my refuge and my hope
When the storm of life is raging
and the thunders all I hear
You speak softly to my soul


You are my strong tower
shelter over me
beautiful and mighty
everlasting King
You are my strong tower
fortress when I'm weak
Your name is true and holy
and Your face is all I seek




What time I am afraid, 
I will trust in Thee.
Psalms 56:3
