Desert Song

"  This is my prayer in the desert

When all that's within me feels dry

This is my prayer in my hunger and need

My God is the God who provides

 

This is my prayer in the fire

In weakness or trial or pain

There is a faith proved of more worth then gold

So refine me Lord through the flame

 

I will bring praise, I will bring praise

No weapon formed against me shall remain

I will rejoice I will declare

God is my victory and He is here

 

This is my prayer in the battle

When triumph is still on its way

I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ

So firm on His promise i'll stand

 

All of my life, In every season

You are still God

I have a reason to sing

I have a reason to worship"

(Desert Song by Brooke Fraser)

Move That Bus!!

For the last week, Extreme Makeover Home Edition has been here in Charlotte, doing a house. So yesterday my mom and i went for the "big reveal". It was so awesome to be there for it!!!! It was really hot and there were alot of people passing out...the news side 30 people passed out, 3 of which went to the hospital. I'm still surprised at how well i did. I didn't start feeling sick or like i was gonna pass out till the very end.

So back to the reveal...we got to the site around 12 and the reveal was scheduled for 1ish. They had to run through practices...and even had the practice limo drive up so we could practice screaming and yelling move that bus. Well then the reveal kept getting pushed back. And finally we were told that around 3 they were hopeing to do it. Meanwhile, we saw some the designers walking around.

And we got to watch Ty do a few practices...that was funny. Before that he ran down the side of the street and high five everyone....Ty high fived me!!!! I was on the phone with my friend when this was going on and screamed. It was awesome!!!! AFter the reveal, Ed one of the designers signed autographs, so he signed my shirt.

So around 3 the real reveal happened. It was great watching the family react to the house. The mom was jumping up and down and screaming.

So here are some pics....
