Daddy's Little Girl

Today on my way to work my dad came to my mind. My heart aches at how I have made bad choices in life that have hurt and disappointed him. When I was younger the sun would rise and set with my dad. A disappointing look on his face would hurt me more than any punishment he could have given me.
I thought of him this morning because I rarely heard him say "I love you", I just always knew he did.
I tell my boys every time they leave or I leave, or we talk on the phone. I don't ever want them to feel like they could lose my love, ever.
I am so thankful to God that I have the dad I have, and want him to know how appreciative I am that he made the sacrifices he did for me.

I love you dad~

Kutless - Strong Tower Lyrics

When I wander through the desert
And I'm longing for my home
All my dreams have gone astray

When I'm stranded in the valley
And I'm tired and all alone
It seems like I've lost my way

I go running to Your mountain
Where Your mercy sets me free

[chorus]

You are my strong tower
Shelter over me
Beautiful and mighty
Everlasting King
You are my strong tower
Fortress when I'm weak
Your name is true and holy
And Your face is all I seek

In the middle of my darkness
In the midst of all my fear
You're my refuge and my hope
When the storm of life is raging
And the thunder's all I hear
You speak softly to my soul

And Your face is all I seek

Extremely busy

I apologize for my absence and I will try to do better in the coming months.

My thoughts for the day....

Proverbs 3: 1-7
1 My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
2 For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4 So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

All I want for Christmas
