How awesome is God?

Some of you may remember me posting about Nate, Tricia and Gwyneth a few months ago. I am happy to report that Tricia had a success double lung transplant a few weeks ago and is doing incredibly well and little Miss Gwyneth was discharged today!!! She was born at 24 weeks, weighing less than 1.5 lbs but she has beaten all the odds against her so far. Her biggest problem was gaining weight and for a micro-preemie that's just fantastic. I am amazed at how big God is and how he still delights in performing miracles everyday. The family still has a long road ahead of them with Tricia's recovery and therapy and monitoring Gwyneth's health but the events of the past few weeks have been big steps forward.


Anyway- Martina McBride

You CAN spend your whole life buildin'
Something from nothin
One storm can come and blow it all away
Build it anyway

You CAN chase a dream
That seems so out of reach
And you know it might not ever come your way
Dream it anyway

God is great but sometimes life aint good
And when I pray
It doesn't always turn out like I think it should
But I do it anyway
I do it anyway

This worlds gone crazy
And it's hard to believe
That tomorrow will be better than today
Believe it anyway

You can love someone with all YOUR heart
For all the right reasons
And in a moment they can choose to walk away
love em anyway

God is great but sometimes life aint good
And when I pray
It doesn't always turn out like I think it should
But I do it anyway
Yeah I do it anyway, YEAH,

You can pour your soul out singin'
A song you believe in
That tomorrow they'll forget you ever sang
Sing it anyway

I sing
I dream
I love anyway, yeah.
