His Eye is on the Sparrow

My favorite hymn at the moment.  His eye is one the sparrow and I know He watches me.  I sing because I'm happy and free.  Good stuff. 

So since I last blogged, my world has changed, just a little, ok, alot.  Last time we spoke I was headed off to the work weekend with GOV.  Fun.  So then while there things changed.  I was extra invited to take part in the J127 program they were running, two days after the conversation.  So yeah, of course I'm here at the Mission on this 9 week discipleship training course.  Boom.  Last week I had plans, I was going to pound the pavement and get a new job, I was planning on selling some chicks we just hatched, I was going to a concert.  I was having life.  Now I'm still having life, just in a tottaly different way I was expecting.  I have to admit I sort of love super fast unexpected changes on the spur of the moment.  It makes things exciting.  At least, after I give everything to God, before that I'm a basket case.

"Let not your heat be troubled" His tender words I hear.  And resting on His goodness, I loose my doubt and fear.  By the path He leadeth, but one step I may see.  His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches me.  

When I know I'm in God's will, I honestly do loose all doubt and fear.  It's a wonderful thing to not have to be concerned because God is watching me, even when I can only see one step ahead.

Here I am, off on a new adventure, the cross before me, the world behind me, no turning back, no turning back.  Another great song right there.
