My three sons all have birthdays within 3 weeks of each other. ~ In 6 days I will be the mother of a 14, 13, 11, and 8 year old....That means I have a house with teenagers!!!
Daily I earnestly strive to provide the right dicipline, guidance, and love for these precious growing souls. Through my parenting, I try to point back to one important fact: I want them to know that I, and their Creator, believe in them. If our children have the confidence that they are created for a purpose and have those who believe in them, they can literally change this world!
As I was cutting my 11 year old's cake the song I Believe in You by Steven Curtis Chapman came on my Zune ~ and, it became the next Soundtrack Saturday post. It struck me as the perfect song for so many different pages or albums: Birthdays, Graduation, Wedding, New Path ~ any other ideas?
(Subscribers may have to click over to the website to hear the song ~ I know some email hosts don't transfer the file)
I Believe in You lyrics by Steven Curtis Chapman
Aren't you the little one
That hid in my arms afraid of the thunder
Are these the little hands
That held so tight to mine
Didn't we both agree you'd never grow up
And now here we are, and here you go
Of all the things I want to say
The thing you really need to know is...
I believe in you
I believe in you
Everything you are
Everything you are becoming
And I believe in you
I believe in you
So spread your wings and fly
On the winds of knowing
I always believe in you
So many prayers we've prayed
So many dreams to get to this moment
Now this is where we stay
While you go change the world
But I'll be where I have always been
Up in the stands cheering you on and singing this song
A song the very God who made you
Has been singing all along
I believe in you
Yeah, I believe in you
So spread your wings and fly
On the winds of knowing
I will always believe in you
And when you rise and when you fall
I'll still believe in you
Just close your eyes and hear me calling
I believe in You
