I just think it is so refreshing to know that there is a God out there who cares. He cares about the old, the newborn, the sick, the healthy, the rich, the poor, you and me!!!
Last Thursday my god-daughter Miss Addison Grace Parks was born. She is my best friend from high school, Kristen's daughter. She is the most beautiful thing in the world.
I love her so much and I have not even met her.
She came to us about 3 weeks early and has been in the NICU since she was born. I am praying for her daily, that Kristen and Devin would get to take her home soon and their family can start their life together!!
I am not an emotional person but as we started to sing a song, I don't even remember what song it was haha. I just started thinking about Addison during this song and just the fact that she might not grow up to know the loving Father that we have in God. I am praying that she will grow up in a home that loves Jesus but I know that her mommy and daddy will have to make that decision.
Well thinking about this just really broke my heart and I started bawling right there in the middle of the song. I just want Addison and the whole family to know that God loves each of them for who they are.
What is cool about this is that a few of the other songs that played that night were about God's love, grace and saving hand. I was reminded once I heard those songs that the family's salvation is not lost. I will continue to pray for them and now just adding Addison to that prayer, God is good, I know He is working.
This song has so much power to it and I wanted to share it!!
Everyone needs compassion
A love that's never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Savior
The hope of nations
(Chorus)
Savior
He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever
Author of Salvation
He rose & conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
So take me as You find me
All my fears & failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender (I surrender)
(Chorus 2x)
Savior
He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever

If you know anyone who is far from God never give up praying for them, you never know how God is going to work in their life. He works everything out in His timing!!
Beautiful baby! And you have a beautiful heart. :)
