In the Throne Room

My name is Gigi and I am a Christian...proud and unapologetic. I was a lifelong Catholic - up until a few years ago when the priest sexual abuse scandal hit a bit too close to home. And rocked my very foundation of beliefs. But by the GRACE of my Lord Jesus Christ, I am finding my way back - not to Catholicism, but to my Savior. This is my journey...I would love it if you would share it with me. Sit with me for awhile, won't you...in the Throne Room of the Lord.

He knew His face

Welcome to the first Music Monday of 2010! I hope you like the song I've chosen because I sure do! It's got some lyrics that are very meaningful to me...I'll explain why at the end of this post.

**Please scroll down and pause my player before beginning the video**

What were the special lyrics, you ask?

"Would you recognize His face
If He came to bring you home"

It has given me great comfort over these past almost 14 months that my Sweet Hubby did indeed recognize His face and He did, in fact, come to take him home. My Sweet Hubby called Him "My Jesus"...and He was. And is. Even more so now.

When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. John 14:3 NLT

Gigi said...: That sounds like a very sad book, Putz...how lonely that woman must have been. But you needn't worry about me. I can assure you - the only person I am lonely for is my Sweet Hubby. I am blessed with good friends who keep in close contact. But thank you so much for being concerned!; January 4, 2010 at 10:41 AM

On July 8, 2008 my Sweet Hubby was hospitalized for what we thought was a bleeding ulcer. On July 10, 2008 he was diagnosed with Stage IV pancreatic cancer with metastases to his liver. Truly a diagnosis no one ever wants to hear...

From the very hour he was diagnosed, we determined that we would continue to place our trust and faith in the Lord and seek to always honor and glorify Him. Yes, even (especially!) in the midst of chaos. One thing that we KNOW for sure is that God is good ALL the time! We are blessed...

**I've been putting off the update to my intro for quite some time now. But delaying it doesn't change the truth...my new reality. On November 9th, 2008, my Sweet Hubby went to be with Jesus. I miss him every minute of every hour of every day. And I will, until I close my eyes for the last time on this earth only to reopen them in Paradise and see His face...and the face of my beloved once again. But for now, I pray to know God's will for me that I might be used to glorify Him.
