My Mountain

Lately I've been spending a lot of time at home, due to my kids not feeling well (all of us are getting cabin fever). And thanks to my amazing husband, he has a list of "Amy's Songs" on our sonos, so it is easy to play my favorite songs without needing to look in a million places for this song or that song (I know for many reading this, they have their ipod but I've yet to get one...it will just be one more thing for me to easily lose!)

Needless to say, spending more time at home, I have been able to listen to songs more than normal....and one that came up yesterday was "Walk Down this Mountain," by Bebo Norman. This song came on shortly before I put the kids to bed, and in spite of my husband being on travels, it was like his voice being a part of us last night...and words that my best friend tells me daily, through one way or another.



"...Walk down this mountain with your heart held high


Follow in the footsteps of your Maker


With His love that has gone before you,and these people at your side


Offer up your broken cup


You will taste the meaning of this life..."


Even though Ken has never told me those words exactly, every day his eyes of protection and confidence enable me to walk down my mountain with my heart held high. I tell him often, but I don't think he really grasps without his voice of truth, I would never have been able to even start to walk down my Mountain, almost 3 years ago, with my heart held high.

"Thank you" will never match the gratitude that I hold in my soul for him....and for him, I will keep walking with my heart held high.

I love you, KNB.
