A little piano meditation if you know the song.

Really y’all I’m just another Samaritan woman seeking living water and pouring out where I see need for encouragement. I am 48, mother to four girls ages 16-26, Gigi to the most handsome 2-year-old little boy, Fibromyalgia warrior, minister, writer, and a lifetime learner.
I am writing my first book, slowly but surely, six chapters in, as our blessed first love has called me to share His glory in my story. I feel lost in that familiar desert place, and thankful for the manna that is there miraculously every day. I am overcoming hour by hour the condemning voices of the enemy and learning to love myself. It has been an arduous journey. This wordsmith journey, but so worth it.
I became a licensed minister in 2010. However, I do not currently work in the ministry. I share Christ's love through devotional blogging. I have a degree in Church Ministry, was pursuing my degree in Christian Care and Counseling at Oral Roberts University, but now am pursuing Life Coaching, and Neurolinguistic Programming Master Practioner Certifications and a business license.
I am a certified women’s biblical counselor through the Extraordinary Women's program at Light University. I am working on their Addiction and Recovery program now too. Yes, I am a glutton for punishment with a wealth of life experiences with which I can minister comfort to others.
I'm a lover of a good book, writing, singing, and music, and my nemesis is the perpetual laundry pile.
Blessings to you and yours,
<3Melinda

Reblogged this on Beloved Hope Endures and commented:
Back in 2011 I was on the praise team at my old church. We often chose songs to sing solos, and then scheduled the as we could. Well we scheduled the song for the following Sunday when I mentioned to the Worship leader that I was ready to sing Natalie Grant’s song, “Our Hope Endures.”
That week we had a 5.8 earthquake here in Virginia. You may have seen it on the world news because it effected Washington D.C., and all the way up into New England. http://www.usgs.gov/blogs/features/usgs_top_story/one-year-anniversary-magnitude-5-8-virginia-earthquake/
Then two days later, Hurricane Irene showed up.

All of this was going on while a fire raged just south of where we lived that they fought for many days. Air quality was so bad we couldn’t go outside.
So since the power was knocked out everywhere like weeks on end for some, we didn’t have church until I think two weeks after the earthquake.
When we did , we decided I would sing
the song.
As I sang the words in practice I realized that God is such a God of perfect timing. The words of the song will explain why. Think of the fear that people had since the Japan Tsunami earlier that year, and then think of the comfort the words of the song brought to us that day as you listen the links below.
