Praise the Lord for the good things he bestows

I have submitted my resume all over town and  had several job interviews. So far nothing has opened up. I know that the Lord has the right work opportunity for me. Monday I received a phone around 10:30 am from a temporary job service looking for help with a project at the Wells Fargo print shop downtown. I have been looking for work and the Lord has provided this job. It will only last a week, but I hope to hear back from some of the places that I have applied and interviewed.

Praise the Lord for He is Good!!

Art Thou Hung'ring for the Fulness

I came across this hymn while working on one of my graduate courses. The words were very gripping and I want to pass it along. Right now I have a friend putting the words to a new tune. If you would like to hear the former tune please visit (www.hymnal.net). I hope you receive a blessing from this hymn.

Art thou hung'ring for the fulness

Of the blessing Christ doth give?

Longing now to learn the secret

Of the life He bids thee live?

In His word thine answer standeth,

"Christ who is our Life" it saith;

Open now thy heart, and trust Him,

There to dwell, henceforth, by faith.

Christ, the Lord's Anointed, reigning

O'er the life He died to win,

Daily shall reveal more fully

His great power, without, within.

What thou never could'st accomplish

Shall His Spirit work through thee,

While thy soul this witness beareth,

'Tis not I, but Christ in me.

In Him dwelleth all God's fulness,

In Him thou art made complete;

Rise, and claim thy heavenly birthright,

Kneeling at thy Father's feet.

He will never disappoint thee,

Praise Him that the gift is thine;

Then go forth to live each moment

On sufficiency divine.

Lord, I come, and simply resting

On Thy faithful, changeless word,

I believe the blood doth cleanse me,

And that Christ is crowned Lord.

Grant henceforth a ceaseless outflow

Of Thy life and love through me;

Reaching those who sit in darkness,

Winning priceless souls to Thee.

Found in The Keswick Hymn-Book (Hymn #430).

It's going to be a Boy!!

We just found out yesterday that our next child will be a boy. We are very excited about this!! One boy and one girl. At least things will be balanced out for now ;).

Here are some recent family pictures... Ok, more like pictures of Elizabeth. She seems to get the most time in front of the lens.
