Once again, I would like to thank everyone that has prayed for me as I went through my surgery and the following recovery. I've been cleared to go back to work tomorrow, so I will have to adjust back to my regular routine. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your prayers, comments and well wishes!
Now on to the song! Chris August's voice in this song, "The Maker", is amazing. So smooth and such a wonderful tone. This is possibly my favorite song right now. My favorite lines of this song are:
"And I never have to wonder if somebody cares for me."
and
"But in all of this to think that You would think of me."
This song reminds me of how special I am to God. I love the Maker AND the Maker loves me.
I see You in the sunrise I see You in the rain I see You in the laughter I feel You through the pain
Everything that You have made is beautiful Oh, my God, I can't believe my eyes But in all of this to think that You would think of me Makes my heart come alive
CHORUS Your love is like a mighty fire deep inside my bones I feel like I could climb a thousand mountains all at once And I never have to wonder if somebody cares for me I love the Maker And the Maker loves me I see You, You are creation I see the grandness of Your majesty The universe is singing all Your glory I can't believe You live inside of me
Everything that You have made is beautiful Oh, my God, I can't believe my eyes But in all of this to think that You would think of me Makes my heart come alive
CHORUS
More than just some words upon a page You've shown me in a million ways But there is one that stands above them all Hands of creation on a cross

First, I would like to ask for prayers. I go tomorrow for surgery to remove my gallbladder. I'm a little bit anxious about, even though I don't know why. Anyway, please keep me in your prayers! My surgery is scheduled to start at 7:30 am but I have to be there at 6:00am. Thank so much! I really appreciate each and every one of you!
While I don't quite "get" this video, I think the song itself is amazing. Tell me, what do you think of the video?
"More Of You"
I made my castle tall I built up every wall This is my kingdom and it needs to fall I want you and no one else Empty me of myself Until the only thing that's left is
More of You Less of me Make me who I'm meant to be You're all I want all I need You're everything Take it all I surrender Be my king God I choose More of You and Less of me I need more of you More of you
This life I hold so close Oh, God I let it go I refuse to gain the world and lose my soul So take it all I abandon everything I am You can have it The only thing I need is
More of You Less of me Make me who I'm meant to be You're all I want all I need You're everything Take it all I surrender Be my king God I choose More of You and Less of me I need more of you More of you
All to You I surrender All to You my blessed savior I surrender all
All to You I surrender All to You my blessed savior I surrender all
More of You Less of me Make me who I'm meant to be You're all I want all I need You're everything Take it all I surrender Be my king God I choose More of You and Less of me I need more of you More of you
All to You I surrender All to You my blessed savior
More of you I need more of you

I absolutely LOVE this song. I could listen to it over and over. It has helped me through some difficult times recently. I love the verse that says "You fight my every battle". My aunt actually bought the accompaniment CD for my daughter to learn and sing at Church. I can't wait!
"I Am Not Alone"
When I walk through deep waters I know that You will be with me When I'm standing in the fire I will not be overcome Through the valley of the shadow I will not fear
I am not alone I am not alone You will go before me You will never leave me
In the midst of deep sorrow I see Your light is breaking through The dark of night will not overtake me I am pressing into You Lord, You fight my every battle And I will not fear
You amaze me Redeem me You call me as Your own
You're my strength You're my defender You're my refuge in the storm Through these trials You've always been faithful You bring healing to my soul
"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me." Galatians 2:20
"But I trusted in Your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in Your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, because He has dealt bountifully with me. " Psalm 13:5-6
But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without a trace of partiality or hypocrisy. James 3:17
