I have posted the words to the song "Blessings".  I have really come to like this song.  It contains alot of my thoughts and feelings right now.  It speaks of healing - It's a really hard place to be sometimes. I have more questions than answers.  I've ask a zillion times why God didn't answer the multitude of prayers for healing.
I am then reminded God gives us what we need rather than what we want. No one said we have to like it.  I need to look at life as speed bumps.  Speed bumps are things we all have to get over in order to enjoy the rest of the journey.
 
We have 3 choices in life - We can Give Up, Give In, or Give It All You've Got.  That goes along with my motto of "You can't go back,  You can't stay here, You must go Forward.  Everyday may not be good, but there is something good to be found in every day.  I've had some interesting challenges along the way but that makes life interesting.  Overcoming those challenges is what makes life meaningful.  I found this quote I want to share. "You may not end up where you thought you'd be,  but you will always end up where
you're meant to be."
 
If you haven't heard the song posted below - you can go to YouTube to listen.  It's an awesome song.
 
Laura Story - Blessings

We pray for blessings     We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep    We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering    All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops   What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights  Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

We pray for wisdom    Your voice to hear    And we cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love     As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea    And long that we'd have faith to believe

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops     What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights    Are what it takes to know You’re near
And what if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

When friends betray us    When darkness seems to win    We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home    It's not our home

Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops    What if Your healing comes through tears
And what if a thousand sleepless nights    Are what it takes to know You’re near
What if my greatest disappointments    Or the achings of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy
And what if trials of this life    The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise
