Great is Thy Faithfulness

This is my 100th Post!

Up until this evening, I was planning on posting a furniture revamp.

However, tonight at our youth group, I heard this song, and was again reminded of how much I have to be thankful for. It's so easy to be caught up in the busyness and stress of life...and focus on the negative instead of the positive. It amazes me how quickly a small problem can overcome us, and become so seemingly overwhelming...to the point that it's the only thing that we are aware of. When really, if you sit back and think about it...about all the blessings in life...all the little things, as well as the big things, you realize that God is faithful more often than things are bad. And, many times, in hindsight, even the bad things result in good.

I was just really moved by this song, and wanted to share it, in case it could encourage anyone out there.

great is Your Faithfulness

great is Your Faithfulness
Your Mercies never end
with each new day
they come again
Your Endless Love is strong
sure as the coming dawn
Your Faithfulness
will be my song

as You have been
forever You will be
great is Your Faithfulness
always oh Lord to me
morning by morning
new mercies still I see
great is Your Faithfulness to me

great is my sinfulness
no good I have to give
but by Your Grace
now I can live
You are my righteousness
the pardon for my sin
Your Presence here
my King and Friend

great is Your Faithfulness
always oh Lord to me
morning by morning
new mercies still I see
and though my heart may fail
You will my portion be
great is Your Faithfulness to me

Your Promise stands forever
we will declare together
Your Name alone is great
and greatly to be praised
