It has been a while .....

It has been a while since I have posted on this blog.
I just haven't known what to write or share with the world.
Two weeks ago I heard this song by Laura Store called Blessings.
It touched me and so I want to share her words with all of you.

Laura Story - "Blessings" Lyrics


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 us way too much to give us lesser things

‘Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a 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
And 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

‘Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near
And what if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise


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,
It's not our home


‘Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near

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

Just remember that no matter what trial comes your way
You're not alone, and HE Cares, and HE Loves You. 
He also whats us all to know that here on earth isn't our forever home.
Heaven will be home to all those who believe in God and excepts His gift....
His Son Jesus
The one who died on the cross as a perfect sacreficed human lamb
to wash away our sins and give us a direct way to GOD!

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten
Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
(KJV)

Prayerfully Yours
