Great is Thy Faithfulness!

Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father;

There is no shadow of turning with Thee;

Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;

As Thou hast been, Thou forever will be.



Great is Thy faithfulness!Great is Thy faithfulness!

Morning by morning new mercies I see.

All I have needed Thy hand hath provided;

Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!



Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,

Sun, moon and stars in their courses above

Join with all nature in manifold witness

To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth

Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;

Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,

Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!


This is kinda my lifesong...it speaks of the greatness of our Savior and His unfailing love!

Proverbs 31

is the woman I want to be. I find myself reading this passage almost daily because to me it is just a reminder of who I want to be.
10 A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than rubies.
11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.
12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.
13 She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.
15 She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.
16 She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.
18 She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
19 In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
20 She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.
21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
22 She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
25 She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
26 She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
29 "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all."
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
31 Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
Just some encouragement! :)

Goodbye...

to the Snowmen! It's now February so I have put up the snowmen for about another 9 months or so! (yes, I decorate for Christmas in November)!!!
Now, that the Snowmen have departed, we are in the lovely love month! :)
It is time to deck the halls with hearts and bows and all things purple and pink...
This month lets tell others how much we love and appreciate them for being apart of our lives.
We should love on others because He first loved us.
Tell someone you love them today! ;)

Love,
Briana Kate

2008

well, 2008 was definately a year for the books...

I laughed and cried...made some wonderful memories, completed two semesters of college (thats like 36 hours!! :) ), rejoiced in new friendships, laid on the beach, went half way around the world, got the opportunity of tell others about our wonderful Savior, fell in love with the Chinese culture, stood on the Great Wall, held some sweet babies, worshipped the King with many people, took over a thousand pictures, read some good books, and a whole lot more! :)

in 366 days...the Lord has captured my heart even more than years before...He has called me to do things that I couldn't have imagined and led me places I thought I would never go. He has changed me!

My prayer is that 2009 will be even sweeter with the Lord and that He will use me in more ways that can bring glory to His name!
