~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

When my heart feels like breaking, And, on this road I’m taking, There comes a fear, dreaded forsaking, Causing such doubt – my soul is shaking! When my soul feels like it is dying, And, on this journey, I’m crying, Longing for solace, so gratifying, But, I feel all alone, beyond unsatisfying. When my spirit feels like I’m lost, Though, on this path, I’ll not count the cost, Because I know Jesus – love I’ll never exhaust… I’m so thankful He sent His spirit at Pentecost! When all hope it gone and I feel so alone, I look to the heavens, where He sits on His throne, Remember the loving Savior that I call my own, Because without Him, I can only grumble and groan. Listen to His spirit sing through the night, In melodies of grace, beauty so bright, When He came to us, our story to write, I realized my Jesus is my life’s greatest delight!

Oh, Gina! You have been on my mind and in my heart since Helene descended in chaos hoping all is well. What a relief to see you posting this morning! In the midst of chaos, you have birthed this beautiful song of faith and delight. Know that you, and all, are in my thoughts and prayers! Sending you bunches of blessings
