Glory To God

This morning I woke up with this hymn playing in my head. I don't know why but as I made breakfast I felt compelled to sing. Sing I did while I mixed the batter for the apple cinnamon muffins. Then as they baked I went and looked it up online:

Glory To God In The Highest

Glory to God in the highest
And peace to His people on earth
Lord God, Heavenly King, Almighty God and Father
We worship You
We give You thanks
We praise You for Your glory

Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father
Lord God, Lamb of God
You take away the sins of the world
Lord, have mercy on us
You are seated at the right hand of the Father
Receive our prayer

For You alone are the Holy One
For You alone are the Lord
For You alone are the Most High
Jesus Christ
With the Holy Spirit
In the glory of God the Father

Amen

Every night as I lay in bed and pray before I fall asleep I pray for guidance, patience, and strength. While I sang along to the song in my head I felt like I was answered. There is something truly beautiful about this song so I have listened to it in it's many forms online today. The music in Mass is beautiful. I love it when the priest sing while they prepare Communion. Maybe this song was to tell me that I am not alone here. Let me remind you that even though I attend Mass I am not yet Catholic. We are searching for a church we belong too. We have been to four here in as many months. I am off track.  Yesterday I was praying for the lord to walk with me. Today he lifted me. I am always amazed that the glory of god can appear in simple humble ways, a song to lift my spirits, a soft breeze on a bike ride, a child's smile, these are the places I have seen the lord.
My question is if I know the lord and I am trying to give faith to my children why do I feel like a lost sheep?

A lost travler looking for the light

I know I haven't posted an update to our goals for the year in a couple of months. I will get to it but not today. Today I want to talk about searching for meaning, a higher power, God. I have always wanted to believe in God but I feel as if I have taken a left turn and missed that part of childhood. So believe it or not I want God in our daily lives. I have seen his work first hand through my children and my husbands complete recovery from cancer. I know God is Good and I know he is always there. I know he listens when we ask him too. What I am not good at is prayer. I have heard the most beautiful prayers that touch the soul on the wings of angels. Mostly when I pray I ask for strength, guidance, patience, or I pray short prayers for those I love or ask for it. I want my children to have faith, where they can turn to God when they need him most. So how do you have a relationship when you have no church? When you don't know how to join the church. I feel Lost.

There was an Angel figurine that I want it is an Angel on her knees praying and across her belly it says Lord Hear our prayer. I thought it was profound and beautiful. Isn't that what we are always asking. Lord hear me. Lord Lead me. Lord Help me. Lord Know me. Maybe we should go to him and know him and his glory. The question I have is How do I get there?

God is God, and God is Good.
