Oh How He Loves Us. . .

He is jealous for me, loves like a hurricane
I am a tree bending beneath
The weight of His Wind and Mercy
When all of a sudden I am unaware of
These afflictions eclipsed by glory
And I realize just how beautiful
And how great Your affections are for me
Oh how He loves us so
Oh how He loves us
How He loves us so
Yeah He loves us
Whoa how He loves us
Whoa how He loves us
Whoa how He loves us

This song came to mind tonight as I was thinking about how God loves me and knows me and cares about the little details and hurts of my life. Today I talked, actually talked to my little brother, two older sisters, a brother-in-law, and two nieces. I just happened to be sitting at my computer when they called our Skype number today. How great Your affections are for me. . .

Yes! Not a coincidence or happen-stance at all, just the Holy Spirit at work!

Dear Lord! Thank you for your guidance and protection of the Schrags while they are in Brazil! Please continue to keep them safe and help them feel Your comfort in an extra ordinary way! Thank you for this life changing, and shaping opportunity. May it be to your glory! Please bless them with comfort & peace in this time of adjustment, may your light SHINE through them! May the housing fall into place for everyone involved. May the language of Brazil begin their thoughts. Thank soo, sooo, much for being with us ALWAYS! AMEN!

Love you guys! SO glad it worked out to talk with family, I can imagine the excitement you had and can picture the joy in your eyes! :)
