Daily 5 - Day 95

Today's Daily 5 (and more...):

1. A walk in Nose Hill Park
2. baking a marble cake with chocolate icing (mostly because I'm having company tomorrow, but also because I felt like cake today)
3. home made pancakes for breakfast
4. finding two birthday gifts for a very affordable price while at the mall
5. discovering my favorite obscure (but really beautiful) children's Christmas story at a small local bookstore - a gift for a friend who has just recently had her first child and loves books. (here's hoping she doesn't have this one yet!)
6. a slow morning, getting out of bed a bit later than usual
7. chatting for a little while with a dear friend
8. taking a few photos again, and having them turn out not too badly
9. reading Proverbs... I've been reading this book off and on for a couple of months now, and I'm very struck by it.
10. curling up in bed with a book...

Holding Onto You

I'm thinking tonight about a lyric my friend Karla Adolphe penned...

My heart is praying these words tonight, for myself and some dear friends... and hearing in the last few lines a quieting response from Jesus...

Holding Onto You

I see a million broken pieces on the floor
I can't believe you'd like to add one more
Meet me where I'm living, meet me where I am
All the stars have melted from my eyes
Only you know how many tears I've cried
Meet me where I'm living, meet me where I am
Holding onto you,
I'm holding onto you,
I'm holding onto you right now

Hush little baby don't say a word
Daddy's coming to get his little girl
Hush little baby, don't do a thing
Daddy's coming he's going to fix everything...
