30 Days of Praise - Day 12

I woke up this morning singing praise songs. I've heard about people doing that before, but it never happened to me. It was a wonderful experience.

My day ended with kissing my husband good night as I left him at the hospital. He has severe complications and an infection from his surgery last week, the surgery he did "for me." And I am feeling really low.

God is still God and just as much on the throne tonight as He was this morning. I listened to worship music on the way home from the hospital. The song is called The Everlasting by Third Day. These are the lyrics to the song.

The Everlasting
Ruler of the universe, higher than the kings of earth
Long before the world began, everything was in Your hands
Your glory will forever stand

For You are the Lord and You are God above
Your love goes on and on

You are the Everlasting Father
You are the Everlasting...
You are the Everlasting Light (oh yeah)
Every knee shall bow (every knee shall bow) before You
You are the Everlasting Life

You rule raging of the sea, the hills proclaim your majesty
All these things created for, the glorifying of the Lord
We praise Your name forever more

For You are the Lord and You are God above
Your love goes on and on

You are the Everlasting Father
You are the Everlasting...
You are the Everlasting Light (oh yeah)
Every knee shall bow (every knee shall bow) before You
Lord of Mercy we adore You (we adore You)
You are the Everlasting Life

My heart cries out
My spirit shouts
I'll praise Your name forever more


He is God of the mountain tops, and He is Lord in the valleys. I am extremely fearful. It's my nature to consider worst case scenarios. I have no peace, but I will seek the Prince of Peace until it comes.

Everything in me wants to go stuff my face with cupcakes, it's my response to stress, but I think I will go crawl in the Father's lap and try to find comfort there. The Everlasting Father.
