Wrapped in God's love...with music

Ahhh...the power of music.

The other day, life was just hard. And I mean HARD. Sometimes it is not so much what happens outside as what happens inside... And, inside, it was a storm.

As I struggled to just keep going, just doing the bare minimum and still not even able to do that, I was hurting, lost, lonely, and ashamed.

Then, on the radio that the kids had turned on, came this song--a song that is normally not played. 

I crumbled to the ground, feeling the peace of perspective flow over me. It was God's touch in my life that day, and I felt the tears wash over and cleanse me as I truly "imagined." I felt the blanket of God's love wrap around me.

He is real. He is there. And while sometimes He walks by our side, watching us take our "first steps" in so many ways, watching us learn and stumble, grow and fall so we can discover our capacity and ability, I am grateful for the times that He just wraps me up in His love.
