Husband is home but so are the old people (Dad and his fiance) later today so I think we are going to the mall shopping. Should be fun! Did you hear the sarcasm? No. It will be good. I am feeling extremely weak this weekend so I will have to take it easy. Pretty sure we won't be there long. Husband is leaving again soon. He is heading out to camp to a job that will take him away for a long time. Making me sad, but at the same time? He will be happy working hard and we could use the money. I will go find him if I have to. And we can phone all day if we need to!
Hope you are all having an amazing weekend!

Day 29: a song heard, a soft word, where you saw the light
- Hillsong United: Take Heart. This is the most amazing song. If you have not heard it? Listen to it. My cousin introduced me to it. Took a few listens but has become a major song in my life. One of my favorite parts is the drum beat of the song. As the song goes, it gets stronger and stronger just like the words. I will listen to this in my car at an insane volume and just drown myself in it. It offers such an amazing promise of love and protection and strength.
[Verse 1:]
There is a light
It burns brighter than the sun
He steals the night
And casts no shadow
There is hope
Should oceans rise and mountains fall
He never fails
[Chorus:]
So take heart
Let His love lead us through the night
Hold on to hope
And take courage again
[Verse 1:]
In death by love
The fallen world was overcome
He wears the scars of our freedom
In His Name
All our fears are swept away
He never fails
[Bridge:]
All our troubles
And all our tears
God our hope
He has overcome
All our failure
And all our fear
God our love
He has overcome
All our heartache
And all our pain
God our healer
He has overcome
All our burdens
And all our shame
God our freedom
He has overcome
All our troubles
And all our tears
God our hope
He has overcome
All our failures
And all our fear
God our love
He has overcome
God our justice
God our grace
God our freedom
He has overcome
God our refuge
God our strength
God is with us
He has overcome
- When Husband whispers "I love you". Nothing more amazing than that.
- The Eiffel Tower-when I was 16 I went to Europe. I was severely anorexic and was not in a healthy place. I stood at the top of the Eiffel Tower one night crying and looked out on the city and decided that my uncle (the one who sexually abused me) could no longer hurt me. That he had killed enough of my life. That he had hurt me for the last time. That starving myself was not only making me ugly (which had been my goal) but that it was only hurting me and not him. I went down from the tower that night and ate dinner. And enjoyed every bite. I will never forget that feeling of "seeing the light". One day I want to go back there and see that view again without tears.
