This song was one of my mom’s favorite, and last week was her birthday and mother’s day. This past week was hard, my cousin (36) died of cancer, less than a year after my mom. His funeral was the day before mother’s day and three days before my moms birthday. While I was in Mississippi, my grandmother, uncle, and I picked out my mother’s headstone. Me being me, it’s the largest and brightest (pink) thing in the cemetery, because I know that’s the way my mom would have liked it. She loved to shine and people were drawn to her for sense of humor. Anyway my pastor sings this song really well, and in honor of her, I give you my Sunday Inspirations entry, My Soul Has Been Anchored. Thank you SJP for such a wonderful meme.

Sorry to read about the passing of your cousin. I hate that word cancer.
I am also sorry to read about your mother.
I hope that you are feeling well.
I like this song. I can’t think of the man’s name who sings it.
Have a good day.

Mrs. G, when I read your post this morning, I got goosebumps. I wanted to post this very song for my Sunday Inspirations, but could not find a version that I really liked. I was so frustrated and now I know why. The Lord works in mysterious ways His wonders to perform! He stopped me from posting because My Soul has been anchored in the Lord was meant for you and you alone to share and give us all inspiration. I know I don’t have to tell you this – because you already know it – but, The Lord NEVER puts more on us than we can bear! My prayers are with you and your family, and yes, your Mom is shining this morning in the blogsphere and most importantly in Heaven!
Much obliged for this wonderful and inspired Sunday Inspirations! SjP

Here by accident or maybe not.
This song was very uplifting. I did search for another on YouTube to connect with the singer and to digest every word. Thanks for the heavenly manna for my spirit this morning. Hugs!
I was reminded of a poem I wrote years ago when the winds were blowing fiercely.
“With each new day I give a little more of me to Him
and with every instance that I find that I cannot stand alone.
For I know that only through His grace can I win.”
- Believer
Keep your focus on the Lord and reach out for His healing balm.
Blessings!

I know exactly how you feel. I have lost my niece two years ago because of cancer. I remember crying all day. Your mom is probably very proud of having such a great daughter.
To echo the previous comment, God Bless you and your family.

Mrs. Grapevine,
I was exploring your site and discovered this post. I am sorry for your loss. This was a meant to be discovery for me today! I needed a spiritual uplift in song and this made me feel much better.
God bless you and keep you!
