I Will Praise You in This Storm

Right now it seems like I get the same question from everyone: "How are you doing?" The answer--this song. Every word--EVERY WORD. This song is so powerful--especially once you really mean it. I (like just about everyone else) used to sing this and other songs--like Mercy Me's "Jesus Bring The Rain" in the car with my hands raised high, saying--WOW!! That is a powerful song...thinking it meant it. The truth was, I only meant it in the case of something small...like say....finances, relationship, or jobs...but take my babies, and I am instantly angry that I ever sang the lyrics--let alone loved them. The lyric that says "we thought that by now you would have stepped in and saved the day" was exactly how I felt after three blood tests came back consistently decreasing. I believed my God would swoop in and save me and the baby. I was angry when He didnt....Somehow, though, God was able to soften my heart and change me. My faith in Him is stronger than I am. I cannot get through this storm, but he can carry me through it. He holds every tear I cried. He holds me.
