Blah

Got a case of the blah's today. Weather is now gloomy gus & I went to my best friend's brother's funeral today. I would have never guessed that just 2 months after I post the lyrics to "Cry Out to Jesus", that I would be suggesting that song for his funeral. But, that's one of the first songs that popped in my head when I was asked for suggestions. It just goes to show that we never know when the LORD will call us home. We just need to be sure we are set on go when He's ready. MD was a great, loving person & will be missed by many! I pray for comfort, strength & peace for the family & children he left behind. But, I know he's in a much better place than this world! And, I find great comfort & peace in knowing he doesn't have to navigate this sinful world any longer! He's with his Maker... where there's nothing but grace, mercy, and love.
Pray the words to Praise You In This Storm, SJ. He will help you during this difficult time! Allan & I love you bunches. You know if you need anything we're here for ya!

Praise You In This Storm by 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 Youand 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 Chorus 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 Chorus
