My heart's cry

The lyrics to this song echo my hearts cry these days.........


"Trust In You"
Letting go of every single dream
I lay each one down at Your feet
Every moment of my wandering
Never changes what You see

I've tried to win this war I confess
My hands are weary I need Your rest
Mighty Warrior, King of the fight
No matter what I face, You're by my side

When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!

Truth is, You know what tomorrow brings
There's not a day ahead You have not seen
So, in all things be my life and breath
I want what You want Lord and nothing less

When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!

I will trust in You!
You are my strength and comfort
You are my steady hand
You are my firm foundation; the rock on which I stand

Your ways are always higher
Your plans are always good
There's not a place where I'll go, You've not already stood

When You don't move the mountains I'm needing You to move
When You don't part the waters I wish I could walk through
When You don't give the answers as I cry out to You
I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You!

I will trust in You!
I will trust in You!
I will trust in You!

Reading
Les Miserables.
It is such a  heart wrenching incredible account of humanity and the power of grace. 

Hiking
Mount Benson with a bunch of girlfriends. 

Wearing
a pencil skirt, a polka dot cardigan, and my pretty feather earrings made from upcycled bicycle tires

Volunteering
at the Nanaimo RCMP  detachment providing Victim Services a couple mornings a week. It is all kinds of awesome.

Eating
 a homemade to die for dark chocolate peanut butter cup (thank you Nicole Zult)

Waking 
up between 5am-6am most mornings  so that I can get my workout and devotions done before I wake my children up. This is a huge departure from the summer when I rarely rose before 8am. 

Pining 
for a pair of dark black "made in Canada" yoga jeans from Cayo Fashions. I already purchased a pair of cross fit runners and some dreamy kilm pillows for my couch so I will have to wait another month or so for those delicious jeans

Living
without a microwave since ours crashed to the ground a couple weeks ago when the shelf holding it snapped. I really haven't missed it at all. 

Trying
to secure childcare for Levi two days a week (feels like mission impossible)

Filling 
out strong start forms, police record checks and my big happy planner

Trying
to motivate myself to edit and upload some pictures from the summer for this blog. This is my first attempt at  blogging in ages.
