Higher than the mountains that I face And it’s stronger than the power of the grave Constant in the trial and the change This one thing remains
Cause Your Love never fails It never gives up It never runs out on me
On and on and on and on it goes FOR IT OVERWHELMS AND SATISFIES MY SOUL
And I’ll never ever have to be afraid
This one thing remains: Your Love..
In death, in life...

I'm leaning into Your heavenly hug
“If I go up to the heavens, You are there; if I make my bed in the depths, You are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast” ( Psalm 139:8-10).
Jesus said, “Surely, I am with you always, to the very end of the age” (Matthew 28:20)
Note
Remain in this truth:
You are LOVED.

Don't miss the beautiful
How often do I drive right through the busyness of my days and miss the beautiful? How many moments of glory do I not even see because my eyes are on the mundane? Do I even look for it?
