A Lightning Storm and other things

This past week, a long lightning storm passed over the city. We stood on the deck, watching each strike ripple across the sky.
It was absolutely majestic!
My camera didn't quite capture it but here are a few pictures. Note that without the lightning, it was completely dark outside.

As we watched the sky light up again and again, we started singing....
"O Lord, my God, When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works Thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed

Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, how great Thou art,
Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, how great Thou art"

"Summer and winter, springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon, and stars in their courses above, 
Join with all nature in manifold witness,
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love" 

"This is my Father's world,
And to my listening ears,
All nature sings, and round me rings,
The music of the spheres.
This is my Father's world,
I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas,
His hand the wonders wrought.

This is my \Father's world,
Oh, let me ne'er forget,
That though the wrong seems oft so strong
God is the Ruler yet,
This is my Father's world,
Why should my heart be sad?
The Lord is King, let the heavens ring,
God reigns, let the earth be glad."

 

 This one is my favourite....

Can't believe I haven't posted since before Jer came to visit. Nevertheless, we had a blast!! This picture, one of many pictures we took, is him and my fourth baby! 

This dear lady, Ma'am Stef, is my assigned supervisor at the clinic, so I work with her a lot. She has taught me so much, she is fun to be with, and has a beautiful heart both for us and for the patients.
She has been a great blessing to me - and I owe so much to her as far as my growth as a midwife thus far! :)

This past weekend, thanks to my mom, and her connections at the mall, I was able to Skype into both Roland and Elizabeth's wedding, and Rachel's Profession of Faith. :)
Both were so much fun!! It was almost like being there with everyone again, which was amazing!

 

Forgive my tardiness in not posting sooner... I shall try to do better! :)

One last praise item, before I sign off...
Yesterday I booked my ticket to come home for the month of August!!!
I am soooo excited!!! 87 days and counting! :)

That's all for now!
Love you all! See you soon :)
