"Blessings"

As I have blogged about before, I have just gone through my 2nd miscarriage. It's been hard. But these couple of songs have really helped. I hope they help you in your trials and tribulations that you are going through. This first song, "Blessings" by Laura Story has especially helped me.

We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love is way too much to give us lesser things

(Chorus)
'Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if the thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt your goodness, we doubt your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
And all the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe

Chorus

When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home

Chorus

What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy
What if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are your mercies in disguise

Weak and wounded sinner,
Lost and left to die,
O, raise your head for Love is passing by

Come to Jesus,
Come to Jesus,
Come to Jesus and live

Now your burden's lifted,
And carried far away,
And precious blood has washed away the stain... so

Sing to Jesus ,
Sing to Jesus ,
Sing to Jesus and live

And like a newborn baby,
Don't be afraid to crawl,
And remember when you walk sometimes we fall... so

Fall on Jesus,
Fall on Jesus,
Fall on Jesus and live

Sometimes the way is lonely,
And steep and filled with pain,
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain... then

Cry to Jesus,
Cry to Jesus,
Cry to Jesus and live

O, and when the love splills over,
And music fills the night,
And when you can't contain you joy inside... then

Dance for Jesus,
Dance for Jesus,
Dance for Jesus and live

And with your final heartbeat,
Kiss the world goodbye,
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side... and

Fly to Jesus,
Fly to Jesus,
Fly to Jesus and live

Fly to Jesus,
Fly to Jesus,
Fly to Jesus and live

If you haven't read this book, be sure to check it out. I just started it...I'm in the middle of the 3rd chapter. I'm already feeling blessed because of this book. I am excited to finish the book, and plan on blogging more about the it.

I'm amazed at how God takes care of things...I've been so down and depressed. But because of some studies with some of my good friends, I've quit listening to some of the music I did before. Now, I listen to pretty much only Christian music. K-Love is my favorite!!! And about the time I start listening to it, Laura Story comes out with that BEAUTIFUL song, Blessings. I think I see God's finger prints! I find myself moved to tears on many occasions by amazing lyrics to beautiful songs, by the stories people share, and by the love that the DJ's have for their work.

Do you feel God working in your life? Do you feel Him trying to tell you that you need to change something? I'm feeling him constantly in my life right now. My faith is so weak. But I'm trying my hardest to just "Let Go and Let God." I encourage you to do the same!!!

God bless you.
