Here are the lyrics:
How Can You Think Of Me?
Words and music by
Gerard C. Faucheux, Sr.
I walk along the creek
And feel the sand beneath my feet
And God, I feel so small.
‘Cause you told Abraham
“Boy, see these grains of sand?
I’ll give you children, more than them all.”
(Chorus)
So Lord of all time and space
And of the whole human race,
How can you think of me?
How can you think of me?
And then this rock I find
Brings other thoughts to mind
About the earth and its age.
No matter what that might be
Compared to eternity
It’s just a speck on history’s page.
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Lord, I can’t comprehend
Your thoughts or your plans
Why would You ever think of me?
But You formed me in the womb
You’ll save me from the tomb
And in between, You’re always near me!
I walk out in the yard
At night and look at all the stars
And once again, I feel so small.
The furthest ones they say
Are billions of light years away,
But your word says you’ve named them all.
(Repeat chorus)

Saturday was a LONG day that started with a trip with my dad to his dialysis treatment. Seeing a room full of patients sitting for about 4 hours at a time, allowing a machine to try to mimic something that our awesome Creator established, well, what can I say? In the brief time that I was there, I was emotionally drained.
I left there and stopped first at a place that sold clothing for little kids, to purchase tap shoes and ballet slippers for my 10-yr old daughter. I honestly teared up when the sales person brought out those big shoes! They were the right size, but I was not ready to admit that my little girl was that grown up :(
I got in the car and somehow made it to another town, where I had to buy a part for my ailing lawnmower. It's great having a huge yard, EXCEPT for when it needs to be mowed! And you would think that with 3 boys that I would be able to turn over some of these jobs? Well... until I get a new lawnmower, one that I can trust, I'll keep doing it myself. Hey, it's almost September. Shouldn't have to do this MANY more times!
Well, I got home and since ANOTHER hurricane/tropical storm (Fay) was headed towards us, we loaded up the generator and brought it to my parents' camp. Since my dad's on oxygen, we need to make sure that we keep the juice flowing!
FINALLY back home, I decided to walk out to the creek to see if there was any water, since it has been dry for months (watch the videos on http://godtube.com/gfaucheux or http://myspace.com/gfaucheux to see the water). There were a few puddles from the fresh rain, but it wasn't flowing. I walked for maybe 100 yards, to a point that's probably closest to the house, a place where the bank is probably about 12 feet above the water with steep sides that cave in a little more with each rain. Down in the water, I spied a rock that looked out of place. I have found large pieces of sandstone, but this was different. I picked it up and examined it and was shocked at what I saw. After all of the tiny pieces of fossils that I have found that I suspected were fossilized coral, well, here, I was holding something that looked like a hunk of coral reef!
Check out these pictures! I have a few more posted on my Facebook page
