Happy New Year

12/31/13 – I was recently posed a question in a book I was reading.

“What do you think is bigger, your disease or God?”

Of course, God is infinite; there is nothing that comes close to God.

The author followed up saying; if you believe in God… and you believe that all things are possible with God… than at anytime God can heal you. 

I processed that for a short while and I couldn't agree with it more.

I think that is such a grand thought and I wanted to leave it with you as we approach the New Year.  

I also wanted to thank everyone for all their support and wish you a Very Happy, Healthy New Year to you and your families.

Below is a YouTube link to a song called “What Faith Can Do.” Give it a listen, I think it truly fits well with our grand thought of the day. Enjoy!


What Faith Can Do
Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes and make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think it’s more than you can take
But you are stronger, stronger than you know
Don’t you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do

It doesn't matter what you've heard
Impossible is not a word
It’s just a reason for someone not to try
Everybody’s scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It’ll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do

Overcome the odds
You do have a chance
 (That’s what faith can do)
When the world says you can’t
It’ll tell you that you can!

I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I've seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do
That's what faith can do!

Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise

  
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Jeremiah 29:11

More to come…
