If I didn't have God, and know that I was held through all of this pain that life brings and that this life is so very temporary, I would spend my entire life in tears, not just days. I am sorrow-filled right now. My heart is wrenched. My face and chest hurts from crying.
Even through these tears, I know that there is hope.
If you asked me right now why I am so sad, I could list so much but in the same breath the list of blessings in my life would still be longer.
So I will continue to pray and believe that even though I feel like I am fighting an uphill battle every day of my life, I am supported and held through it and that Jesus' love and favor for me is greater than any grief this world can bring.
"Sorrow" -flyleaf
Sometimes life seems too quiet
Into paralyzing silence
Like the moonless dark
Meant to make me strong
Familiar breath of my old lies
Changed the color in my eyes
Soon he will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by
Sorrow lasts through this night
I'll take this piece of you
And hope for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me
Left alone with only reflections of the memory
To face the ugly girl that's smothering me
Sitting closer than my pain
He knew each tear before it came
Soon He will perforate the fabric of the peaceful by and by
Sorrow last through this night
I'll take this piece of You
And hope for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As You flew right through me
And we kiss each other one more time
And sing this lie that's halfway mine
The sword is slicing through the question
So I won't be fooled by his angel light
Sorrow lasts through this night
I'll take this piece of you
And hope for all eternity
For just one second I felt whole
As you flew right through me
And up into the stars
Joy will come
