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.

I get down...

*Please scroll down and pause my player before watching video*

When you're crying
He's your comfort
When you're all alone,
He's carrying you...

This valley is so deep
I can barely see the sun.
I cry out for mercy Lord,
and You lift me up again...

Every time I'm down
the Lord lifts me up...
Yeah!!!!!

Lyrics excerpted from Get Down by Audio Adrenaline

But you, God, shield me on all sides; You ground my feet, you lift my head high; With all my might I shout up to God, His answers thunder from the holy mountain. I stretch myself out. I sleep. Then I'm up again -- rested, tall and steady,
Psalm 3:3-5 The Message

I wanted to say thankyou for the encouraging post you left on my blog. I guess we all go through times when things get frustrating or we get down, but He lifts us up again, praise the Lord for that, He lifts us up again:):)

Blessings always, ((HUGS)) to you too:)

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.
