He'll Shine :)

Have you ever heard the most perfect song at the right time and it just stops you in your tracks and causes you to cry out..."THANK YOU JESUS!" Well...God seems to speak to me through songs (probably because life is so loud in our home and it is the only way to get me to pay attention) A lovely lady at my church gave John a video to take home and share with me and Gabe...it is a signing video ( we are learning so much from it and also the ones his teacher sent home) so Gabriel really loves it because it is full of music..that is how Rachel Coleman teaches the sign language! So we have been watching it for about a month or so now (sorry Ms. Connie...I promise to return it soon) and not until the other day did the last song she sings really STOP me in my tracks and the words spoke so clearly to me and I knewGod was telling me I needed to stop worrying about what Gabriel doesn't do and to REJOICE in the things he is doing..and to remember Gabriel is exactly the boy God has created him to be and HE WILL SHINE!!!

So I searched all over the web to find a link to add so you could click and hear it but I couldn't find it so here are the words....

Shine
By: Rachel de Azevedo Coleman.


Sometimes I see you stuck
For such a long time
A daily nothing new
Pretend I don’t mind
With lists of things you’ll never do
Until somehow you do
And you do — you do — you shine
The days and months and years,
they run together
Is it just one day? Or is this forever?
You’ve taught me in your lifetime
More than I’d learned in mine
And you do, you do, you shine
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
Shine your light on me
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
everyone will see
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
I’m so glad you are mine
And you’ll shine in your own time
Well, maybe I’m too close to see you clearly
Or is it now my role to simply believe?
You’re just one of those mysteries
That may never be solved in time
But you do — you do — you shine
And Sammy will do what Sammy will do when Sammy is ready to do it
And Trevor will do what Trevor will do when Trevor is ready to do it
And Lucy will do what Lucy will do when Lucy is ready to do it(And Gabriel will do what Gabriel will do when Gabriel is ready to do it!)
And they’ll do it in their own time
Yeah, they’ll Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
Shine your light on me
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
And everyone will see
Shine Shine Shine Shine Shine
I’m so glad you are mine
And you’ll shine, and you shine
