Music You Should Know
This song by Danielle Rose spoke to me this week as I was thinking about moms. Parents set, at times, impossibly high standards of how they should show endless patience, love, and a mistake free existence. Danielle reminds us that it's ok, and wonderful, to be the saint that I am.
“I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word, that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me.
