We know it has been quite a while since we posted one of these. But we want to start back up, doing them once a week again! Or at least, a lot more often than we have been, lol. XD 😉
Here’s is a song that has been an encouragement to us over the last few years. 🙂
I’ll Never Forsake You
Verse 1:
O soul, are you weary from wave upon wave
Of grief and affliction whom no man can save?
Has sickness surrounded, or unending night?
Uncertainty stolen your joy and your might?
Verse 2:
O doubting, o fearful– remember His care,
The helpless and hopeless need never despair
For from your afflictions His glory shall spring–
The deeper your sorrow, the louder you’ll sing!
Remember Your father– His promise, His love:
Chorus:
“I’ll never forsake you, this pain will not break you,
For I will remake you for unending joy;
My promise is faithful though now it is painful;
No power can trample my covenant love.”
Verse 3:
Remember your Savior– His grief and His pain,
The lonely affliction, unmerited shame.
Though you had betrayed Him, He died in your place;
The joy set before Him He offers by grace.
Remember Your father– His promise, His love
Merry Christmas, all you wonderful people who are reading this blog right now! How was your Christmas? (Tell us in the comments!) Our Christmas was great. (More on that, in a minute.) 😉
So, as you probably saw from the title, today we are doing something a little different than usual. Elle, from Elle’s Everyday tagged us for the Sunshine blogger award! (Click the link to check out her super encouraging blog.) Thank you, Elle!!!!!
This is technically a singing/song blog, but we decided to do it anyway. Well, we will be doing an abbreviated version of it – we won’t be answering every single one of the questions, and we won’t be following the rules exactly, but we are going to have fun with 5 of her question. 😀 Are you ready? We are!!!
Elle’s Questions
Do you feel called to a particular place or people group? If so, who or where? (more than one is just fine)
Rosy: Well, our family is already called to the Tarahumara Indian tribe here in Mexico! 😀
Gracie: The Tarahumaras, in Mexico, where we work.
What is your favorite attribute of Jesus and why?
Rosy: This is a really hard question, but I’d say one of my favorite things about Jesus is the hope that He gives to the world!
Gracie: I don’t know… It’s to choose… 🤔
What is your purpose in life? What do you hope people see in your life?
Rosy: The fundamental propose of my life is to bring glory to God, and to enjoy Him FOREVER! When people look at my life… I want them to see the love of Jesus flowing through me!
Gracie: To glorify God.
What’s your favorite Bible verse(s)?
Rosy: I love Isaiah 41:10!!!
“Do not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”
Gracie: I don’t know about this one either… They’re all good!
List a Christian resource or two (or three) that has touched you. (can be a book, movie, song, blog, etc.)
Rosy: A few cool resources that have touched my life are:
Gracie: The Harrow Family Music. The Harrow Family is a family who sings Bible verse songs, made up of only the Bible! Our family has memorized a lot of Bible verses through their music! It’s on YouTube. You can listen to it if you want to. (Click on the link!)
And we said we’d mention more about Christmas day… We believe that this video that I (Rosy) made pretty much sums it up. Here ’tis! 😀
Have a great day, everyone! And happy Chocolate Day! 🍫🍪 (Wow, we like that day…!)
Hey guys! We’re here with our first inspirational song of the week!!! This song is sooooo good. I (Rosy) only first heard it a few weeks ago, and I love it so much. It has been SUCH in encouragement to me!!! 🙂
VERSE 1 Shall I take from Your hand Your blessings
Yet not welcome any pain?
Shall I thank You for days of sunshine
Yet grumble in days of rain?
Shall I love You in times of plenty
Then leave You in days of drought?
Shall I trust when I reap a harvest
But when winter winds blow, then doubt?
CHORUS Oh let Your will be done in me
In Your love I will abide
Oh I long for nothing else as long
As You are glorified
VERSE 2 Are You good only when I prosper
And true only when I’m filled?
Are You King only when I’m carefree
And God only when I’m well?
You are good when I’m poor and needy
You are true when I’m parched and dry
You still reign in the deepest valley
You’re still God in the darkest night
BRIDGE So quiet my restless heart
Quiet my restless heart
Quiet my restless heart in You
Have you heard this song before? Which of the two verses is your favorite? We hope that it encourages you, as it has us! 🙂
