Giving you all my love

At first I didn't like this song at all, when I heard Jason Mraz' new song "I won't give up" - I thought yes lyrics are great, love the meaning but somehow otherwise the song just felt too simple or unsurprising. But NOW after a week, it has started to grow on me ;) I'm actually liking it a lot. It is annoyingly catchy. You just feel like singing along :-)




And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find


I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make

 
I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up


But yes, I am actually loving it already. Huh! Jason Mraz is only my favourite artist, it was weird not to like his music, I was in shock how that could happen! Glad I found it there ;)

And today this fits in perfectly. I 'm saying: I won't give up. I've been encouraged today.

Something blue

Beautiful things from Coast


Vida tube dress
 

Nice accessories... this bag
  

blue shoes and blue bag, yummy
 
It's not blue, but I love it!


This one would make a nice bridesmaid dress.

Transformed by love

From my heart today



You live in a million places
Your fingerprints can be seen on a million faces
There is a trace of you
In every hallelujah
Every song that I sing


And because of you
I come alive
And it's your sacred heart
Within me beating
Your voice within me singing
Oh, for love of you
Oh, for love of you
It's all, it's all you, yeah


I gave you brokenness,
He gave me innocence and now
This road leads to glory

Your love never fails



Nothing can separate
Even if I ran away

Your love never fails

I know I still make mistakes
But You have new mercies for me everyday
Your love never fails
  You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
  And when the oceans rage
I don't have to be afraid
Because I know that You love me
Your love never fails
  The wind is strong and the water's deep
But I'm not alone in these open seas
Cause Your love never fails

My tribute



If I should die this very day
Don't cry, 'cause on Earth we weren't meant to stay
And no matter what the people say
I'll be waiting for you after the Judgement day


Life is precious. That's what I've been thinking this week, as I've had a really good week - and felt happy and thankful, thankful for this Life of mine! 

Today we were also celebrating my sister-in-law's 40th birthday. It made me think life (hers in this instance) really is worth celebrating for! And should be celebrated! What a gift it is and we all are to each other. And how lucky she is to have all those people (who were there) in her life. I also thought of the one who wasn't there... I'm pretty sure he would have wanted to be there. It still feels like something is missing. That he should have been there. Will we ever stop missing him? I missed him there today. I wish he had been there. It's been nearly five years.  I guess it's always these milestones where you miss those gone before you the most. I missed him today.

And thinking of life and death - and Whitney Houston's death. It was reported  that she had been speaking a lot about meeting Jesus and being ready to meet Jesus. Also on TMZ. (And in Finnish newspapers...) How her life is lifting His name up! She's celebrating with Him now. We miss her. But her life so was worth celebrating for! And how thankful, that she was able to share her gift of music with us. It just speaks to me of following your dreams and pursuing that which you were created for.

This song, my love is your love is one of my favorites, if not the favorite from Whitney. At the end, whatever storms life brings and at the end I'll be okey. Because Jesus loves me.



PS. A friend of mine also lost her brother just two weeks ago. Please keep her and her family in your prayers...

Until I find my way home



 
I’m gonna push my life today
Push to make a better way
Gonna push ’cause I got to carry on

I’m gonna push the clouds away
Push so I can see the way
Gonna push until I find my way home

I can feel it come together
I know God has a plan, oh yeah
Oh I see the kingdom through the shadows
But it’s all gonna pass
I’m gonna push
‘Cause my Lord ain’t gonna let it last


I’m gonna push my life today
Push to make a better way
Gonna push ’cause I got to carry on, oh yeah


I’m gonna push the clouds away
Push so I can see the way
Gonna push until I find my way home

I’m gonna push ’till my Lord brings me home
Oh, oh yeah
‘Till I find my way home

You'll come




Chains be broken
Lives be healed
Arms be open
Christ is revealed


As surely as the sun will rise
You'll come to us.

Walk by faith

Would I believe you when you would say
Your hand will guide my every way
Will I receive the words You say
Every moment of every day

I will walk by faith
Even when I cannot see

this broken road
Prepares Your will for me

Help me to win my endless fears
You've been so faithful for all my years
With one breath You make me new
Your grace covers all I do
