faith

Various challenges of the past few weeks have had me listening to music with a new awareness of the lyrics. This song hit me in a whole new way a few days ago...

What Faith Can Do

by Kutless

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

Chorus:
I've seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn't ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And 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 just what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

Chorus

Bridge:
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!

Chorus

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

yabba dabba dooo!

Fred & Wilma (aka Greg & Becky) just stopped by on their way to a halloween party & they brought a little soldier with them...

Earlier this month we made our annual trek out to Whistler. As has often been the case, we enjoyed some beautiful fall weather & this pool shot documents just how balmy it was! If you look closely though, you can see the steam rising off the water.
