Sunday Scripture!

I am a dreamer.  Nearly every single night I have long, detailed dreams.  About once a month I dream that I did not actually graduate from A&M and my degree is taken away from me.  And it seriously takes me 2-3 minutes when I wake up to realize that it is not true.  And I feel such a sense of relief.  Now I also have GREAT dreams that take me a few minutes to realize are not true.  And when it hits me I feel so horribly sad.  But last night I had an amazing dream - all about my sweet Joshua.  And I can't remember the details, but it was just this overwhelming, wonderful feeling that he loves me and I love him.  Just pure joy.  And when I woke up I laid there and realized I was dreaming and started to feel sad for a second, and then it hit me that my dream was true!!!  I know it sounds so silly but it was really just the most fantastic feeling in the world.  And it just made me feel so thankful, before my feet ever touched the floor.  God has just lavished me with His love through this man. So thankful!!

Ephesians 5:19-20

19 speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, 20 always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.



And amazingly this verse lead right into the other thing I wanted to share today - a song Josh and I are loving right now.  It is an old hymn that Casting Crowns has on their newest album.  It is AMAZING!!!  I could just listen to it over and over again, and I suggest you do too! :)  I love how it shows Christ's whole life - living, dying, buried, rising, and the glorious day when He comes again. I'm so thankful for this amazing plan God has for saving us!




GLORIOUS DAY
Artist: CASTING CROWNS.
Album: Until the Whole World Hears


One day when Heaven was filled with His praises
One day when sin was as black as could be
Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin
Dwelt among men, my example is He
Word became flesh and the light shined among us
His glory revealed

Living, He loved me
Dying, He saved me
Buried, He carried my sins far away
Rising, He justified freely forever
One day He’s coming
Oh glorious day, oh glorious day

One day they led Him up Calvary’s mountain
One day they nailed Him to die on a tree
Suffering anguish, despised and rejected
Bearing our sins, my Redeemer is He
Hands that healed nations, stretched out on a tree
And took the nails for me

One day the grave could conceal Him no longer
One day the stone rolled away from the door
Then He arose, over death He had conquered
Now He’s ascended, my Lord evermore
Death could not hold Him, the grave could not keep Him
From rising again

One day the trumpet will sound for His coming
One day the skies with His glories will shine
Wonderful day, my Beloved One, bringing
My Savior, Jesus, is mine

Oh, glorious day
