You better watch out

Beautiful Savior, Wonderful Counselor
Clothed in majesty, Lord of history
You're the way, the truth, the life
Star of the morning, glorious in holiness
You're the risen One, Heaven's champion
And You reign, you reign, over all!


A few Sundays ago, this song was sang during worship time and oh how I love it. We sang it and tears streamed down my face that the baby boy in my arms wiped away and asked me if I was okay. I love that kid. I assured him I was and I wanted to express to him how truly blessed we are.

Blessed that we have a Savior who rules over all, who loves us more than we love ourselves, who gives us what we need not what we think we want. Blessed that God opened our ears and our hearts to let Him in.

Blessed that the Lord of history has allowed us to be a part of a family who believes this chorus to be true. How blessed Jory is that he has a mommy who understands and believes we serve the Star of the morning. That I was reared by a mother who knew/knows the risen One. That Oma was reared by my awesome Grandma who loved until the day she met Him face to face, Heaven's Champion. That Jory's great Grandma was a PK and grew up knowing, hearing, and learning about the Wonderful Counselor.

As I held this five-year-old boy in my arms, you know so he could see the screen and "read" it, who accepted Christ earlier this year, all I could do is cry and say, "Thank you." Thank Him for giving me the gift of life, for sending His son to die for my sins, for blessing me with the little boy in my arms who PRAISE GOD eased me into motherhood and who is sadly getting a bit too heavy for me to hold for long stretches of time.

One day I pray TTT (the terrific trio) will sing this song and cry or lift up their hands truly understanding what this song means, how true it is, and what a beautiful Savior they have!
