It being the last day of 2012, I feel like I should have some deep, rich thought to share.
But I don't.
I don't have any resolutions yet, no word of the year. I haven't decided to take a picture every day this year, or run a marathon in September.
I'm just going to enter into this new year thinking about Christ. I want to keep Him above all else this year. So often I will forget; forget what He has done for me, forget His love.
So if you really want a resolution from me, it can be that I will pray for the presence of Christ in my life at all times. I want to radiate the light of one who dwells on Christ's goodness constantly.
I want to remember Him above all.
May God bless and keep you and yours in this new year. Happy 2013!
I had never heard this song until recently, when my piano teacher brought it for me to learn.
I. love. it. (just so we're clear on that.)
The music is gorgeous, so soft and delicate and the lyrics are strong and amazing. I'm posting the video and words below.
Breath of Heaven
Amy Grant
I have traveled many moonless nights Cold and weary with a babe inside And I wonder what I've done Holy Father, You have come And chosen me now to carry Your Son
I am waiting in a silent prayer I am frightened by the load I bear In a world as cold as stone Must I walk this path alone? Be with me now, be with me now
Breath of Heaven, hold me together Be forever near me, breath of Heaven Breath of Heaven, lighten my darkness Pour over me Your holiness for You are holy Breath of Heaven
Do you wonder as you watch my face If a wiser one should have had my place? But I offer all I am For the mercy of Your plan Help me be strong, help me be, help me
Breath of Heaven, hold me together Be forever near me, breath of Heaven Breath of Heaven, lighten my darkness Pour over me Your holiness for You are holy
Breath of Heaven, hold me together Be forever near me, breath of Heaven Breath of Heaven, lighten my darkness Pour over me Your holiness for You are holy Breath of Heaven, breath of Heaven Breath of Heaven
