To God Be the Glory

Every year at this time I hearken to the childhood days of my Chrstian walk and the songs and observances that I was taught. One of the songs we learned was this one I wish to share with you in video. It seems appropriate in this Easter season especially to give God the glory.


This Easter He has helped my mother to pull through an especially trying time at the hospital and I give thanks for that. Though she isn't out of hospital yet she has grown stronger and we are hopeful she will be released after the holiday weekend. I am still with her and visit her each day.

I pray that those who are of the family of faith will have lots of opportunity to pause and reflect over this busy weekend of what God has done for you. May He continue to keep and bless you and your loved ones.

I haven't been able to blog on those things I want to share but those posts can be saved for another day. Thank you to my blogging friends for continuing to read my blog, for commenting and for offering thoughts and concerns by email. I appreciate each and every one of you.

    Joyful, it's good, really good that your mon has grown stronger. My mom is almost 90 years old and I think always I must be healthy and good for her.
    Take care of yourself. Have a nice weekend!

    I love that song (and Fanny Crosby)! I think we are kindred spirits.

    Thank you so much snowwhite. I am relieved and happy that mom is getting stronger. Your mom is much older than mine so she must be a very strong and healthy woman. My mom is very strong but not so healthy for many, many years. I am trying to get enough rest but it has been a very busy week. I hope that you will have a lovely weekend too.
