“Beautiful Darling”

“Beautiful Darling”



With a heavy heart and unstill mind
I come at your feet,
Bend my knees, Bow my head

You stretch out your hands,
And lift me up
My head still bowed,
You touch my chin and raise my head,
And you tell me that you love me:

Chorus:
I love you, daughter
I love you, little girl
Nothing will change the fact that:
//You’re my precious girl, beautiful darling,//
No sin can keep you far away from me,
For I forgave them all… at the cross!
I love you, daughter
I love you, little girl

Oh, Father of mercy and grace
Spirit of glory and victory
Son of forgiveness
Deliverer of evil and sin
Savior of my heart and soul

You lift me up in your arms
You looked upon me with love:
//I am your precious girl, beautiful darling//


Chorus:
I love you, daughter
I love you, little girl
Nothing will change the fact that:
//You’re my precious girl, beautiful darling,//
No sin can keep you far away from me,
For I forgave them all… at the cross!
I love you, daughter
I love you, little girl



When I felt you left,
You held my hand
When I felt alone,
You took me in your arms

When I was a child,
You laughed with me
When I was upset,
You cheered me up

Chorus:
I love you, daughter
I love you, little girl
Nothing will change the fact that:
//You’re my precious girl, beautiful darling,//
No sin can keep you far away from me,
For I forgave them all… at the cross!
I love you, daughter
I love you, little girl

You place your arms around me
The warmth of your love,
Fills my empty heart
Thank you Lord!

You lift me up in your arms
You looked upon me with love:
//I am your precious girl, beautiful darling//


I am.... beautiful darling

Without Grumbling

     It is a troubling realization when we finally see that our deepest desires aren't always pure and our intentions aren't always the best. It is often too easy to sink in to the ways of the world. Why? Because we live in it and its currents tend to tug at our faith. It is so difficult for me to admit how imperfect I am. I like to think I can do anything, though in reality, I know I am utterly powerless. It's only human nature, I suppose, but it serves me nothing to pretend like I know everything.      All this to say that this spring semester has left me utterly tired and worn out. I have studied and worked my energy out and toward the last couple of weeks before finals, my personal devotions that I've always been so fond of, diminished quickly. I became tired and at times, hopelessly unwilling to spend time in the Word and in prayer. Part of me felt angry toward myself about it, but the other part remained foolishly apathetic. I didn't know what to do...

Well, Hello every one! Some days, I get disapointed about my blog, because rarely is it viewed and when it is, I lack the knowledge of it. Other days, I even forget about my blog. So I want to encourage every one that knows me and/or visits this blog, to keep visiting it and to let me know and send a short email or something... it doesn't have to be long! Here is an update from my Aunt Mary from an email she sent: "I want to let you know that I am still working in the “day center” (where we help children that are in danger of becoming “street kids”). Every day is a spiritual war, so I ask for your prayers. This Monday when we were going to take the children to their school, two of the 6-year olds, crossed the street on their own, withouth listening to the instructions given to everybody to cross together. God protected them from a terrible accident. But I felt very weak after that, from the dread I had felt. But thank God I am better now. And we have taken new measures of prev...

A Little Faith

Last week, on Monday, my cousin asked me, "So, what do you want for Christmas?" I gave her an "I don't know" look and said, "Nothing, I guess" so she left me alone. On Tuesday, my brother asked me, "What are you getting mom for Christmas?" And I said, "Nothing, I guess". On Wednesday after I finished bathing my dog, I asked her, "You think I should get anybody anything for Christmas?" and she shook her whole body to dry off, "Yeah, I guess your right" I said. On Thursday I went for a walk and one of my neighbors sitting out on their porch waved at me wishing me a Merry Christmas and said, "Are you going anywhere special for Christmas?" I was surprised by the question, but answered simply, "No. Nowhere special, I guess" and I walked on. Friday, I got a Christmas card in the mail from a good friend that read, "Dear Ruth, I hope you are well. I want to wish you a Merry Christmas and hope you...
