We celebrated Byron’s two years of life at our favourite park down by the river.
A teddy’s bear picnic was the order of the day. The looming rain clouds and then the down pour didn’t dampen our spirits even though we did get a bit wet!

So many things can hold us in slavery….
For the Israelites in the Old Testament often it was a hard hearted Pharaoh or a single person in a place of authority that had such hatred for the people of God that they attempted to completely destroy, enslave or control the Israelites.
In 2013 maybe you don’t have a Pharaoh to contend with….
But maybe you have been abused or mistreated or maybe your identity has been attacked. Your captor could be your unforgiveness, fear or bitterness….
Majesty enthroned in beauty
All my life, Your love pursues me
and I’m found in You
Oh Holy One, the King of glory
You’re the Author of my story
and I’m found in You
‘Cause You give me life and lead me to find
Your grace and Your mercy, given so freely
Your word is my light, it leads me to find
Your comfort and healing, the hope that I’m needing
Your love is all around
Your love is all around
Oh Living One, You reign forever
Drawing me into Your presence
and I’m found in You
Oh Great Redeemer, Precious Savior
You are faithful, though I wander
and I’m found in You
‘Cause You give me life and lead me to find
Your grace and Your mercy, given so freely
Your word is my light, it leads me to find
Your comfort and healing, the hope that I’m needing
Your love is all around, Oh
Your love is all around, Oh
And I hear Your voice
I hear the words You’ve spoken
This love is Yours
This love restores the broken
Oh, Your love is all around
Oh, Your love is all around
Oh, Your love is all around
And this is all my hope and peace
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
And this is all my righteousness
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
And oh, precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Oh, Your love is all around
Oh, Your love is all around
Oh, Your love is all around
My song for 2013,
Love Martine
