I stand in awe of the God who works through the words of a songwriter to give me the exact encouragement I need when I need it -- or to put into words what my heart wants to say, but doesn't know how.
A couple of years ago, when DH was deployed last and I was going through a bit of a rough time for various reasons God really used the song Praise You in This Storm by Casting Crowns to remind me that He is always there -- even when it feels like He is far away.
For the past four or five months, No Matter What by Kerrie Roberts has never ceased to remind me that God is faithful, and even when I don't understand why I am having to go through a certain situation, God knows what I am feeling and understands the pain. It is such a beautiful -- if not bittersweet -- reminder of God's trustworthiness and faithfulness. It is the cry of a broken, confused heart reaching out to a loving, merciful God -- acknowledging it's need, deep love for, and dependency on God no matter what.
Anyhow, I was just wondering: when something goes wrong or when you feel like your world is falling apart, what gets you through?
In awe of His faithfulness,
