what doesn't kill you makes you (stronger)
Just saw her on SNL tonight and can I just say it's refreshing to watch a woman sing who isn't caught up by all the fame and the hype and still had that glow in her eyes as if it was one of her first performances and she was having the time of her life, AND actually wearing real clothes, not coming out half-naked, and who isn't a toothpick but strong and confident in her body just the way she is, A-MEN!

Prayers, Footprints and Markers of Faith for 2011, 2012
---THE LORD REMEMBERS US AND WILL BLESS US---
::
The Lord is crazy and ridiculous and amazing all at the same time and up to crazy things... in our lives and the lives of several among us and the crazy things the Lord is up to with them as well. Wow. January has been an entirely different beast and taken twists and turns on a journey that continues to unfold.
After a series of events and encounters with God in His word, I declared 2011 a year of living by faith a few weeks ago. It was the only way my heart could make sense of proceeding forward.
I literally could not see even a few inches in front of me and the only comfort to relieve the anxiety was realizing I was being called to live by faith in a way I new would continue to stretch me yet bring me into a deeper and greater reliance on my Lord and Savior. Where I would trade my eyes for new sight. And wow, what a wild ride this year has been already.
I do not even know how to put it into words as this journey of faith continues in an entirely different landscape and new terrain... He has given me new strength and eyes of faith to see Him in ways I've never seen Him before...
Giving me the grace and the strength to cling to and fully claim the power and truth of His promises that yes, Lord, you will remember us and you will bless us, yes, your people will live by faith... so we may see your glory and the power of what only You can do.
And I stand amazed. By You.
Yes, show us your glory, Lord. Show us your ways , guide me in truth, for you alone are God, my Savior. My hope is You.

Psalm 25, the cry of my heart for 2011:
In you, LORD my God,
I place my trust.

I trust in you;
do not let me be put to shame,
nor let my enemies triumph over me.
do not let me be put to shame,
nor let my enemies triumph over me.
No one who hopes in you
will ever be put to shame...
will ever be put to shame...
Show me your ways, LORD,
teach me your paths.
teach me your paths.
Guide me in your truth and teach me,
for you are God my Savior,
and my hope is in you all day long.
