He is faithful!

Yesterday in church, my dear friend Randi ministered to me in a way that I don't think she even knows. I was sitting next to her and her husband and listening to her sing during worship made me cry. You see, Randi was diagnosed with breast cancer at the end of October, and is starting on the incredibly long and painful journey of fighting her cancer. She and her husband from the very beginning have remained firm in their faith. You can check out their incredible journey at their blog : treasuresinheaven.blogspot.com 

So, back to Sunday. We were singing Matt Redmon's song "Never Once"... listen to it here : 


For me to sing "You are faithful" to my savior was an easy overflow of my heart. He has been so faithful to me. He is faithful to forgive my sins, to provide for our family, to bring Mike and Maddie into my life, to be my comforter and protector. But, would I be singing with the joy and passion that Randi sang if I had breast cancer? If my world as I knew it was crashing down, would I sing "You are faithful God?" Do I trust the Lord enough? Randi does, and it is such a beautiful thing to witness. She knows, like the song says, that the Lord is with her, He never leaves her and He is her source of joy, hope and peace. I hope you know Him and can experience that peace whenever your life is turned upside down. 

On a less serious note, I'll leave you with a few pictures of my sweet angel that we took this weekend...we had a fun filled weekend with Maddie's bff Mckinley (Randi's daughter). We watched Mckinley while the Widemans had a night on the town in Ft. Worth and we had such a blast with the "twins" as we so lovingly call them. It was a great training opportunity for Maddie, she wasn't doing great a sharing her toys and liked to take Mckinley's milk from her.

My joyful girl! 

Hope y'all have a wonderful week...can you believe Thanksgiving is next week? I can't! I am so excited to spend the holiday with my parents again this year and to remember every blessing the Lord has given me and to give Him thanks! 

Love y'all!
Katy
