even if you pray just a little

July 23, 2008 by Wendy S

Please read Nate’s post and then pray really hard.

I’ve been reading Nate’s blog for a while now. There is one song on the radio that makes me think of Nate, Tricia and Gwyneth everytime I hear it: “I Saw God Today” by George Straight.

This isn’t the actual video, but you can hear how beautiful the song is!

I Saw God Today
George Straight
Just walked down the street to the coffee shop
Had to take a break
I’d been by her side for 18 hours straight
Saw a flower growin’ in the middle of the sidewalk
Pushin’ up through the concreteLike it was planted right there for me to see
The flashin’ lights
The honkin’ horns
All seemed to fade away
In the shadow of that hospital at 5:08

I saw God today

I’ve been to church
I’ve read the book
I know He’s here
But I don’t look
Near as often as I should
Yeah, I know I should
His fingerprints are everywhere
I just slowed down to stop and stare
Opened my eyes and man I swear
I saw God today

Saw a couple walkin’ by they were holdin’ hands
Man she had that glow
Yeah I couldn’t help but notice she was startin’ to show
Stood there for a minute takin’ in the sky
Lost in that sunset
Splash of amber melted in the shades of red

I’ve been to church
I’ve read the book
I know He’s here
But I don’t look
Near as often as I should
Yeah, I know I should
His fingerprints are everywhere
I just slowed down to stop and stare
Opened my eyes and man I swear
I saw God today

Got my face pressed up against the nursery glass
She’s sleepin’ like a rock
My name on her wrist
Wearin’ tiny pink socks
She’s got my nose, she’s got her mama’s eyes
My brand new baby girl
She’s a miracle
I saw God today

say a little prayer

April 17, 2008 by Wendy S

Today, at approximately 10am, my 90-year-old Gramma is going in for microdiscectomy surgery.

They say that it is minimally invasive as it is done with microscopes and the incision will only be 2 inches. I’m still concerned though becuase she is 90.

I called her last night to wish her good luck. At the end of the conversation, we both said “I love you”. Please God, don’t let that be the last time I talk to my Gramma.

Please say a little prayer and/or think positive thoughts for her.

faith, hope and love

April 3, 2008 by Wendy S

(blog365: 93/365)

1 Corinthians 13 was read at our wedding by my Aunt. She also read it at my parents’ and at my brother’s wedding. This scripture means a lot to Hubby and I.

And when you read the store of Nate and Tricia, you know what it truly means to have “Faith, Hope and Love”.

Surgery successful!!

Continue to pray for her as she recovers and grows stronger.
