Also...I cannot even begin to express my gratitude for praying for our family last week as we met for counseling. It was SO evident that God was in control. SO evident that God brought peace. SO evident that God hears the prayers of His children! I wish I could share more with you on here but I know you understand.
God is so busy working on me personally that I am having a hard time keeping up. He continues to chip away at my "rough edges" and I really am glad. I've said before that it can be painful to be refined but it's worth it.
This weekend I had the privilege and the thrill of being able to go to a simulcast of one of my favorite speakers. First of all...let that soak in. I LEFT MY HOUSE AND FELT WELL ENOUGH TO GO HANG WITH WOMEN AND LISTEN TO SOME GREAT TEACHING!! I assure you I did not take one moment of it for granted. For now I am going to process what I learned before I share it but there is one thing...
When people stand to sing, I normally will remain seated because of the "dizziness". There was a song that we were able to sing a couple of times called "In Christ Alone". I am going to share it with you here, but I have to tell you first that there is a line where I was compelled to stand. I could barely get the words out as I was overcome with emotion. The line is -
"Here in the power of Christ I'll stand"

I can not listen to that song without it bringing tears to my eyes. Tears of conviction, joy, thanksgiving and yes, POWER!
Count it all joy,

Sheryl, I love that song too! I think it's wonderful that you stood during the song and especially during that phrase! I'm sure Jesus received your praise and your sacrifice! Thanks for sharing this post! You are an inspiration!
I love this song... sang it yesterday at Beth Moore, and today at church!!! IN CHRIST ALONE!!!
Keep standing on His promises my Friend!!
So happy for you. YOu were in my prayers. I love that song too.
What a powerful song. So glad you were ministered to. Sounds like a wonderful event. I know of some others who "went" to it too.

I'm so glad and thankful that you were able to go out to that teaching! My MIL was at one in Panama City! I love that song!
What a powerful song...
I'm so happy that you were able to get out and attend this function! That's wonderful.
You have the ability to express yourself very well. When trying to talk about deeply personal experiences... it is tough. Share what you can... don't worry about what you can't.
I know I am probably the only clueless blogger out here in blog-land... but you mentioned dizziness... can you tell me what you have been diagnosed with? If you prefer not too... that is perfectly fine.

So glad you were able to get out and attend!
That is one of my favorite worship songs.
I'm so glad the counseling session went better than expected. God has HIS own plan and HE is working to heal the hearts of your whole family.
I was so excited to hear that you got to go out and so relate to not standing up at worship services,for different reasons. I can just imagine that moment and hoe youfelt his presence. That song gave me chills.
Talk soon
Love and Hugs

Love you

The words to that song are typed out on paper and sitting on my desk. The song overwhelms me with emotion everytime I hear it. I can't tell you how thankful I am that you were able to attend that seminar with friends. Thank you for sharing a bit of what all God is doing in your lives.
I love that song and to me there is almost no song more worshipful than it. I takes me to my knees every time.
So glad you got to go. I'm guess it was Beth as I know her Simulcast was this past weekend.
So you went to Beth too? Wasn't it great! Still following your blog and thought I would shock you and comment-ha So glad you got to go! It was great! I listened to that song on the way to work today!
