Falling In Love All Over Again...

 I was at work today, and I was thinking about Singing School, the Wasendorfs, the Myers and all my family and friends. Well, God came to mind, like He does often. Well, I was thinking about how He knows everything about us and everything that we have and will face. Then I got on the thought that He KNEW I would go to singing school and become friends with the people I have. When I started going to NGSGM, I had no idea that I would become so obsessed with it. When I started going (way back when), I thought it would be just a summer thing, you know, something to get me outta the house, but it became SO much more. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about someone there or my lovely, lovely teachers. There's not even a day that goes by that I don't get a song from one of our song books stuck on replay in my head. And although I didn't know that singing school would become such a big part of my life, God did. He knew before I was even born that singing school would be my everything. He knew how in love I would become with everything about the music, the people and the memories there. He knew that one day my path would cross with the Wasendorfs, my second family, and He knew how close I would become with them. He also knew every bit of drama that took place at NGSGM, and at times there was ALOT of it. He knew that there would be times that I wouldn't understand just how NGSGM was working in my life. He knew how everything would be connected. For example, last summer, when my friend Jessi found out she had cancer, I just happen to be at singing school. God knew I would need them to lean on. He was right. It was one of the most trying times in my life, and I don't think I could've made it through without them. And after Jessi passed away, they all rallied around me and helped me through it. God knew the people that could get me through it. He knew that every single person at that school would help me pray. He knew that people there would sit and talk to me about everything. He KNEW. I don't know about you, but that just amazes me. It blows my mind that God cares so much for us, that He took the time to plan out our lives and make everything fall together perfectly. It amazes me that He knew that when He made this world that He would have to send His only begotten Son to die for us. I mean, He didn't HAVE to send Jesus, but the fact that He CHOSE to, knowing all the dumb things we would do and how much we didn't deserve His Son, He STILL CHOSE. He didn't eenie, meenie, minie, moe the choice between Jesus and the angel Gabriel, oh no. He freely CHOSE HIS SON to die for the world. That puts me in awe of God. I have been in love with God for as long as I can remember, but thinking about everything God has planned for me and how much He loves me, makes me fall in love all over again.
