The above plaque hangs in my studio and was proven true to me this week. Dear friend J is suffering the effects of a recent, significant stroke that has taken much from her. Words spoken elicit some response, but music... animates her like nothing else. When I visited her bedside, singing some of her favorite hymns, she did something remarkable: she sang along with me, every word...
I close with a verse we sang together:
Perfect submission, all is at rest.
I in my Savior am happy and bless’d,
watching and waiting, looking above,
filled with His goodness, lost in His love.
This is my story, this is my song;
Praising my Savior all the day long!
This is my story, this is my song;
Praising my Savior, all the day long!
Blessings,
Jennifer
