This is Not Just For Cancer...

A message to all. I have a song that has had profound impact on me and I try to reflect on it every time I am struggling to hear God and feel lost. Here it is. I would like to share it, because it states the truth. Whether you believe in God or not, he is still there by you...it's whether you want to acknowledge him. It goes for Christians too.
A miracle will happen for me. It'll be the day I marry Ryan and they tell me I'm cancer free after all the pain I've been going through.

Praise You in the Storm: Casting Crowns

I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.

Chorus:
And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
for You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You
and raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on
if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away


I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth

That is a very good song!
He's never left your side and WILL NOT leave your side.
As much as life is going to have many rough days try to remember these words. I know it's not easy to think of these words. He truly does love you, and he's caring for you even though some days it's not evident.
I'm still praying for you!

Love you!
