I lift my eyes up to the hills.....

Here is Westmont's home page with alot more information. 

I am so overwhelmed by the sadness that has happened to my friends and family.

But I AM ALSO OVERWHELMED WITH GOD'S WONDERFUL GRACIOUSNESS!!!

Here is my favorite song and I hope it ministers to you in the same way it has touched me.

Casting Crows

"I will Praise you in the Storm"

I was sure by now

God you would have reached down

And wiped our tears away

Stepped in and saved the day

But once again, I say "Amen", and its still raining

As the thunder rolls

I barely hear Your whisper through the rain

"I'm with you"

And as Your mercy falls

I raise my hands and praise the God who gives

And takes away

I'll praise You in this storm

And I will lift my hands

For you are who You are

No matter where I am

Every tear I've cried

You hold in your hands

You never left my side

And though my heart is torn

I will praise You in this storm

I remember when

I stumbled in the wind

 You heard my cry

You raised me up again

My strength is almost gone

How can I carry on

If I can't You

As the thunder rolls

I barely hear You whisper through the rain

"I'm with you"

And as Your mercy falls

I raise my hands and praise the God who gives

And takes away

I lift my eyes unto the hills

Where does my help come from?

My help comes from the Lord

The maker of Heaven and Earth
