"Blessings"

Have you heard this song? This is one of the songs that I would bawl to while driving to or from the NICU back at the beginning of the year.

What if trials of this life

The rain, the storms, the hardest nights

Are your mercies in disguise.

  I think the lines that are not heard the first time we listen are these:

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.

All the while you hear each desperate plea,

and long that we'd have faith to believe.

Go ahead and listen to the song after you hear the story behind it .(sorry you might  have to stop the band perry song below).

Say an extra prayer for some friends of mine. They've got another baby on the way & found out about some medical issues regarding his heart. Pray for peace for mom and dad until the baby comes. Pray for healing! Pray for the doctors, nurses, and surgeons who will be working with the sweet boy shortly after he enters the world. We love you guys!

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28
