Mid-Quarter Stress Fest

My job is almost like college...the middle of the semester all the tests and projects are due before the break...the heat is on to make a Monday deadline and its like pulling a semi-truck with your pinky across the line. I can't complain because this quarter (so far) has definitely been a lot easier than the last. But I have definitely had to remind myself of the Blessed Assurance...to sing HIS praises...and that eventually I will accomplish all my personal wishes and of course those professional ones that help bring home the bacon. That life will balance out and God is my story not this earthly schedule...I just have to be patient.

This hymn brings back so many childhood memories..and I sing it with my whole heart everytime I hear it now...

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!

O what a foretaste of glory divine!

Heir of salvation, purchase of God,

Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.

This is my story, this is my song,

praising my Savior all the day long;

this is my story, this is my song,

praising my Savior all the day long.

Perfect submission, perfect delight!

Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;

Angels descending bring from above

Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.

This is my story, this is my song,

praising my Savior all the day long;

this is my story, this is my song,

praising my Savior all the day long.

Perfect submission, all is at rest!

I in my Savior am happy and blest,

Watching and waiting, looking above,

Filled with his goodness, lost in His love.
