You know me

I have the most beautiful song for you.  It always captures my heart and I encourage you to find it on u tube.  Heres the lyrics, read and go find it for yourself to listen to.

Its sung by Steffany Frizzell / Bethel Music
From the album Loft Sessions

You Know Me

You have been, and you will be
You have seen, and you will see
You know when I rise and when I fall
When I come or go, you see it all
You hung the stars and you move the sea
And you still know me
oh oh oh oh
You know me
oh oh oh oh
Nothing is hidden from your sight
Wherever I go, you find me
You know every detail of my life
You are God
And you don't miss a thing
You memorise me

I guess what stands out to me most about this song is that God is always there. He knows everything about me and he doesn't miss anything.  He even knows my thoughts before I do. He is constantly watching me, wooing me, beckoning.. please come, spend time with me, I love you and I will never leave you.  No matter how much I mess up he still loves me, with no conditions. Amazing to have, and to know that love. Enjoy the song, I hope you can find it!

Accountable kindness

What a great end to a character building year! I've had a month off writing my blog and have been concentrating on my children's book which my husband has commented is more like a novel but when I get my head into something I love I can't stop!  I just thought it was really important that I share this most valuable piece of inspiration with you all. I have made it my new years resolution and I'm sure when you read it you'll be inspired to do the same.  I was reading "Fathering a destiny" by Bruce Lindley when I read the most challenging few lines that have made me want to be so much more precious with my words and thoughts.  It actually comes from the heart of Heidi Baker and here it is... She asks God every night if she has been kind to everyone she has been with that day.  I've started doing this and wow, as the day passes along I find myself accountable for every word that comes out of my mouth and now even more so I have even taken kindness into my thoughts too.  Instead of getting irate at the christmas drivers on the road I'm finding myself making excuses for them, tired, stressed, the poor things how can I show kindness to them? No more pulling the bird out the window of my soul.  Be inspired to do the same. What a better world we would all live in if we asked ourselves and those who believe asked God, "have we been kind to Everyone today?" So if you haven't made any new years resolutions yet, make it this one, it could be life changing for you and those around you.  Watch it rub off as you explode into others terrains with kindness!

Also I wanted to thank all my readers for your support throughout 2012.  God bless you all xx
