Speechless

Remember I shared a while back that God has been providing for my plane fares for every trip I've taken to Phoenix since Dan has been there? Get ready to be speechless...

God did prompt someone to pay for part of my airfare for this week's trip. So it looked like I would be paying for the other half plus car rental for the first time, which didn't bother me one bit, after all, it's all God's money anyway and I planned to pay off the credit card in payments over the next few months, so no problem.

Yesterday, out of the blue, I was given a card and inside...you guessed it...the remaining amount needed to complete the payment for the airfare AND rental car.

As Stephen Curtis Chapman writes so eloquently, I am speechless.

Speechless
My words fall like drops of rain.

My lips are like clouds.
I've said so many things, trying to figure you out.
As mercy opens my eyes, my words are stolen away.
At this breathtaking view of your grace...

And I am Speechless
I'm astonished and amazed
I am silenced by your wondrous grace.
You have saved me
You have raised me from the grave.
And I am Speechless
In your presence now.
I'm astounded as I wonder how
You have shown us the love that leaves us speechless.

So what kind of love can this be
That will trade heaven's throne for a cross
To think that you still celebrate
For finding just one who was lost.
To know you rejoice over this
The God of this whole universe.
It's a story too great for words...

We are speechless

Oh how great is the love
The Father has lavished upon us,
That we should be called the sons and daughters of God

We are speechless

We stand in awe of your mercy
You have saved us(from the grave)
We are speechless
