I remember the moment I knew what kind of year I would be having in 2011.
Worshiping for the first time at a {then} new church, we sang "Days of Elijah" at the end of the service.

Yeah, we sang a praise song after the sermon...exuberantly, even.
And, it was this one.
Totally a God moment.
Totally a God moment.
For so many reasons, this song spoke to my heart.
God gave me just what I needed when I needed it...as always.
In His time.
For His glory.
A year of jubilee.
He doesn't disappoint.
Ever.
Amen!
Amen! That is such a great song - and after a sermon - fabulous!
