This entire weekend,
the Lord has been reminding me
of just how blessed I truly am!
Church this morning was totally awesome.
(I'll get to that in a second),
Earlier this weekend...
- My mom drove an hour & a half on Friday morning,
at 3am to rescue me from severe stomach pain/ sickness.
& still made it to school for work with a smile on her face! Amazing.
- My dad drove here with my brother today after church,
both of them functioning
on only a few hours of sleep,
to pick up my little car,
take it home to fix,
& dad left for work again.
Also, Amazing.
It is truly just mind blowing for me to realize
just how much I have been blessed, simply within my family!
I would be here all night if I began to reflect on all of the other blessings...
All in all, I am just so thankful!
Have you thought about your blessings lately?
I certainly don't enough!
It is definitely a humbling reminder,
that there is in fact a God out there who is so much greater than us,
& who loves us so much more than we could ever imagine.
Definitely if you haven't, take the time to do so!

So back to church...
if you're looking for one,
or just want an awesome reference,
& are currently residing in the Edwardsville/ Glen Carbon area,
I strongly recommend Trailhead Church.

We sang a rendition of the hymn,
Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing today,
& it was totally 100% appropriate.
Not to mention the sermon was a beast and a half.
Check out the podcast online;
Serious. They didn't pay me to say that ;)
I'll post the lyrics to that song below,
& highlight my favorite lines from today!
God bless!
<3
Come, thou fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it,
Mount of thy redeeming love.
Here I raise my Ebenezer;
Here by thy great help I’ve come;
And I hope, by thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be!
Let thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to thee.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here’s my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
Seal it for thine courts above.
Tune my heart to sing thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it,
Mount of thy redeeming love.
Here I raise my Ebenezer;
Here by thy great help I’ve come;
And I hope, by thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be!
Let thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to thee.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here’s my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
Seal it for thine courts above.
