One Week

It's been a week since my Grandma has been in the ICU.  Continue to pray for her, the doctor is only giving her a 50% chance of survival.  This is discouraging since I heard that she was doing well according to the nurses.  I'm not sure who to believe any more.
Oh well.
On the bright side, I only have 3 more weekends here in Texas before I get to go back to Georgia.  Still haven't mustered up the brawn to call it "home".  Trying to just take it one day at a time.

"Your Hands"

I'm not sure who reads my blog, or if anyone reads it... but whoever you are, please pray for my Grandma.  She's in the ICU right now after a nearly fatal heart attack she had yesterday and is on a respirator and is under a lot of medication to keep her blood pressure down.  If she improves today, she has a better chance of survival.  If she shows no improvement by tomorrow, her chances are even less.
I know that the Lord is with her even now.  Please pray for peace and that she will be restored to us.  
I have been listening to this song over and over again: Your Hands- JJ Heller

"I have unanswered prayers
I have trouble I wish wasn't there
And I have asked a thousand ways
That You would take my pain away
That You would take my pain away

I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crookedly lie
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

When You walked upon the Earth
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt
I know You hate to see me cry
One day You will set all things right
Yea, one day You will set all things right

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

Your hands
Your hands that shape the world 
Are holding me, they hold me still
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave You when...

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave...
I never leave Your hands" 

I Surrender

Today is a prayer made from one of my favorite hymns... 


I Surrender All:


All to Jesus, I surrender;
All to Him I freely give;
I will ever love and trust Him,
In His presence daily live.

Refrain

I surrender all, I surrender all,
All to Thee, my blessèd Savior,
I surrender all.

All to Jesus I surrender;
Humbly at His feet I bow,
Worldly pleasures all forsaken;
Take me, Jesus, take me now.

Refrain

All to Jesus, I surrender;
Make me, Savior, wholly Thine;
Let me feel the Holy Spirit,
Truly know that Thou art mine.

Refrain

All to Jesus, I surrender;
Lord, I give myself to Thee;
Fill me with Thy love and power;
Let Thy blessing fall on me.

Refrain

All to Jesus I surrender;
Now I feel the sacred flame.
O the joy of full salvation!
Glory, glory, to His Name!

Refrain


Heavenly Father,

Take the pieces of my heart that are shattered on the floor.  "All to you I freely give, Lord."  Take my heart and make it whole.  

In Your Heavenly Name I pray,

Amen
