🎼 MUSIC FROM THE HEART: Blessings

kuaneun (52)in #music • 7 years ago

It's been four months since my last post. Yes, I've been quite silent for months. Not because I lost my passion to write or to, at least, share something to you; rather, it's just that I faced some of life's greatest obstacles.

To simply summarize everything I've been through during those months, let me share with you a song entitled Blessings by Laura Story.

And if ever you are facing some obstacles right now, I want you to know that you are on the right track. What's happening to you right now is not to bring you down. Take heart. You are being molded by our Creator.

BLESSINGS
by Laura Story

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.

And 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;
we cry in anger when we can not feel You near

We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
as if every promise from Your Word is not enough

And all the while, You hear each desperate plea
and long that we'd have faith to believe

When friends betray us, when darkness seems to win
we know that 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?
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?
What if trials of this life, the rain, the storms, the hardest nights
are Your mercies in disguise?

💖Blessings!💖
