Out Of These Ashes ......

I am sure that some of you have heard about the tragic accident on May 21, 2008. Steven Curtis and Mary Beth Chapman's five year old little girl went to be with Jesus. One of the many things that came from their tragedy was an inspirational, heart warming, tearful, and an (another) awesome album "Beauty Will Rise". What an awesome testiomony that has spoke to both Missy and I. As much as I hate for anyone else to have experienced what we have, I am glad others have chosen to use it for good. Here are a couple of the songs on his album. I would encourage everyone to check it out. Thanks you Chapman's and to whoever got us their album. These words are so exactly how we feel.

"Just have to wait"

Well I can't wait to see your smile again
The one where your eyes disappear
Along with all my troubles
And I can’t wait to hear you sing a song
Mainly Jesus loves me or a song you learned up there
But I, oh I, just have to wait
Cuz I know that day is coming
So I, oh I, just have to wait
I can’t wait to hear your mother laugh
The way that only you can make her laugh
When you get silly
And I can’t wait to see you in her arms
And know the wounds so deep inside her heart
Are sealed for good
But I, oh I, just have to wait
Cuz I know that day is coming
So I, oh I, just have to wait
Ohhh I can’t wait to dance with you again
Knowing that this time we dance
Will never have to end
But I, oh I, just have to wait
Cuz I know that day is coming
So I, oh I, just have to wait
I can’t wait to see your sisters play
The way they do when all of you
Are playing altogether

"SEE"

Right now all I can taste are bitter tears
Right now all I can see are clouds of sorrow
From the other side of all this grief
Is that you I hear, laughing loud
Calling out to me
See, its everything you said that it would be
And even better than you would believe
And I’m counting down the days
Until you’re hear with me
And finally you’ll see
But right now all I can say is Lord, how long
Before you come and take away this aching
This night of weeping seems to have no end
But when the morning light breaks through
We’ll open up our eyes
And see, its everything He said that it would be
And even better than we would believe
And He’s counting down the days
Until He says come with meAnd finally
He’ll wipe every tear from our eyes
And make everything new just like
He promisedWait and seeJust wait and see
Wait and see
And I’m counting down the days
Until I see, Its everything He said that it would be
And even better than we would believe
And I’m counting down the days
Til He says come with me
And finally we’ll seeWe will see
We'll taste and see that the Lord is good
The Lord is good
The Lord is good
Oh taste and see that the Lord is good
The Lord is good

Wow, Simply amazing the talent that some people are blessed with, and how Romans 8:28 rings so true. Thank you all for your continued prayers, support, encouragement, cards, and love.
