On repeat right now -click here and scroll to number 11, “Servant of All.”

I wanna be your lover
Show me how to go lower
Where in the depths I will find you
Where you’re serving my brother

I wanna be with you
where you are
I wanna be with you where you are
I wanna be with you where you are
and you’re the servant of all

I’m in love with a king
that became a slave
I’m in love with a God
who is humble
You gotta go down if you wanna go up
You gotta go lower if you want to go higher and higher
You gotta hide and do it in secret if you want to be seen by God
It’s the inside, outside, upside down kingdom
where you lose to gain
and you die to live

-Misty Edwards

Tara and I are so excited to spend time today with some  friends we lived next to during out time in the army.  Blane is off today, too, so it’s just a happy day around here!  As usual, I have some excellent posts from around the blogosphere for you to read.  I hope you’re encouraged and that you have a wonderful weekend!

Parenting

The Power of a Focused Mother – This goes with chapter 4 of The Mission of Motherhood this week.  It is a great, short post about sacrifice for the glory of God.

My Story. Part 1 – You will cry reading this post.  I did, anyway.  Even if you don’t, you will be encouraged.  Have I been vague enough as to it’s content to get you to read it??

Loving our Husbands

Serving Our Husbands Through a Nourishing Diet- Part 1 and Part 2 – I could not have said it better, particularly because the author is a veteran wife of 33 years, seasoned with much more wisdom than this young wife of 6 years.  If you don’t consider yourself “passionate” about health & nutrition and really lack a desire to learn about it, I urge you to read these posts.  If you get a chance, go back and read through why I do what I do when it comes to health and nutrition.  Maybe it will serve as a primer for you to get started in thinking about these things a little more.

Well, I better run.  I think Brant decided he wants to take a bath.  Our bath tub is really low and this wouldn’t be the first time he’s fallen in head first (no water in it of course) because he’s reaching for toys.    “See” ya next week!
