the Servant Song

This is one of our wedding songs that we had my sister and a friend sing as a duet. From the moment i first heard this song, i knew that i wanted to have it as part of our wedding. to me, these words are vows in their own way. I often think of this song as well when i think of my online GCM group of moms and all of the ways that we support one another along the journey.



Will you let me be your servant.
Let me be as Christ to you.
Pray that I may have the grace
To let you be my servant too.

We are pilgrims on a journey
We are brothers on the road.
We are here to help each other
Walk the mile and share the load.

I will hold the Christ light for you.
In the nighttime of your fear.
I will hold my hand out to you,
Speak the peace you long to hear.

I will weep when you are weeping.
When you laugh, I’ll laugh with you.
I will share your joy and sorrow
‘Til we’ve seen this journey through.

When we sing to God in heaven
We will find such harmony
Born of all we’ve known together
Of Christ’s love and agony.

growing up in grace

an online friend wrote a few blog entries that really spoke to me and inspired me. I'm linking to them here so that i can reference it later, and in hopes that it will perhaps be thought-provoking to others :)

New blog site!

It's actually Nov. 14, 2008, but I am relocating my old blog posts over to my new blog! So i am manually importing them each, and backdating them to the date that I originally wrote them in other blogs. yes, i'm insane...i probably wasted a whole day doing this, lol.
