Mountain of God

We are now in Scranton, PA and plan on heading to MA tomorrow morning! We had a great visit with Mike's sister Pat and her family. We went out to Camp Allegheny to "check it out"- it's beautiful :)
I don't know when I'll be able to write again once we hit camp, so I wanted to say thank you for all your prayers. We definitely felt them throughout the whole trip. I heard this song (one of my favorites) by Third Day as I was driving through the mountains of Pennsylvania. With all that has gone on in our lives over the past few months, leaving our fabulous friends, church, school, and neighbors, and with the future a bit unknown, I thought the song was timely. So, I'm leaving you with the words of the song "Mountain of God" and pray that in all YOUR circumstances, you will truly feel the presence of God.
We love you~
Mike, Lisa, Hannah, and Matthew

"Mountain Of God"

Thought that I was all alone
Broken and afraid
But You were there with me
Yes, You were there with me

And I didn't even know
That I had lost my way
But You were there with me
Yes, You were there with me

'Til You opened up my eyes
I never knew
That I couldn't ever make it
Without You

Even though the journey's long
And I know the road is hard
Well, the One who's gone before me
He will help me carry on
After all that I've been through
Now I realize the truth
That I must go through the valley
To stand upon the mountain of God

As I travel on the road
That You have lead me down
You are here with me
Yes, You are here with me
I have need for nothing more
Oh, now that I have found
That You are here with me
Yes, You are here with me

I confess from time to time
I lose my way
But You are always there
To bring me back again

Sometimes I think of where it is I've come from
And the things I've left behind
But of all I've had, what I possessed
Nothing can quite compare
With what's in front of me
With what's in front of me
