3 week anniversary

Thursday, September 11, 2008

Wow, 3 weeks today.
He is back in Iraq and we are here missing him like crazy.
We had the best 18 days ever. Seriously, ever. For all four of us.
And now we have to fall back into our own little routines again of normal life.
Except its not so normal, because I have a husband. And he has a wife.
No more wondering "what is going to happen with us?"

It happened... the miracle happened. God resurrected what was totally dead, and brought it back to life and and well, it's amazing. And better than ever. EVER.
No secrets, no pretending, no fear.
Pure Joy.

The other day I was cruising around town listening to the Newsboys on my Ipod, and this song came on that I know I've heard before but never really HEARD it, called Devotion.
Amazing song. The next time we had a chance to chat I told Hubs to listen to it.
He was like WOW. That is like my anthem for my life!

Here are the lyrics:
All my world
All I've lost
The wrecks I've made here
The lives it cost
Your hand restores
Your words make whole
With all my soul
I thank You
I owe You
All my

Devotion
All that I have to give
Here's my devotion
You're all that it means to live

All my past
My tainted name
You stole its legacy
Of pride and shame
You're all I love
You're all I fear
I'm drawing near
To face You
To know You
To show You

Devotion
All that I have to give
Here's my devotion
You're all that it means to live

You found me
In a shallow grave
You dragged me out from beneath it all
You healed me
Saved me
In the nick of time
Your perfect time
You found me (found me)
In a shallow grave (in a shallow grave)
You called me out from beneath it all
You touched me (touched me)
Saved me (saved me)
In the nick of time
In Your perfect time

I devote all I have to You
I devote all that You've made new
All You restored that day You bled
All that You brought back from the dead

Devotion (You're all...)
You're all that I have to give
You're all that it means to live
Here's my devotion, my devotion
All that it means to live (You're all that it means to live)

My Lord
My devotion
