Repeat

This song is back on repeat today. Our family got bad news this afternoon. A very sweet part of our family is really suffering with cancer right now.


I need this. In fact, I put it at the top of my soundtrack and turned on the auto-start because I'm asking you to please pray for my family when you hear the song come on.



Please pray....

~that the truths sink deep into our hearts
~ that we would know above all else that God is good in all things
~that we would know who rules over cancer and has won victory over death
~that we would have great hope because of Him
~that His presence would be real and felt right now




And while you're praying for us, pray these beautiful words for yourself too:


I have unanswered prayers
I have trouble I wish wasn't there
And I have asked a thousand ways
That You would take my pain away
That You would take my pain away

I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crookedly lie
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

When You walked upon the Earth
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt
I know You hate to see me cry
One day You will set all things right
Yea, one day You will set all things right

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands

Your hands
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave You when...

When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave...
I never leave Your hands



Thanks for your prayers, friends. The prayers of the righteous are powerful and effective.
