Blessing in the storm?

I know that if you know me personally or have read this blog you are aware that daily I fight some pretty convincing demons. Demons that remind me of all that is wrong around me, all that is wrong with me, and all that is wrong with this world. I struggle daily with thoughts of being worthless, as if God himself wouldn't even want my love and devotion. I feel as if I have failed at everything I have tried to accomplish. I fall and try to stand back up once more and I slip and I am right back where I started from. I know there are so many of you out there that have been where I am now, or maybe you are where I am... I am pushing forward slowly and there are days when I see a glimpse of what God sees all around me, I can see some good, some light at the end of this tunnel, I can see grace and hope. But these days for me don't come easy anymore. Lucky for me I have friends that love me, who want to try to lend a hand and lift me up. Today I was reminded that even in my weakness in my turmoil, there is a blessing in the storm.


Do your heart a favor if you are going through any kind of trial, or just do your self a favor and take a listen to this song...

Blessing in the storm

When i cannot feel the sparrow sing
And i cannot feel the melody
There's a secret place
That's full of grace

There's a blessing in the storm
Help me sing it
There's a blessing in the storm

When the sickness wont leave my body
And the pain just wont leave my soul
I get on my knees and say Jesus please

There's a blessing in the storm
Help me sing it
There's a blessing in the storm

When I cannot seem to love again
And the rain drops wanna never end
If you just hold on those clouds will soon be gone

There's a blessing in the storm
Help me sing it
There's a blessing in the Sweet storm
