If YOU want me to

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. Your prayers are working. This week, although my circumstances haven't changed, my attitude has been MUCH better and I know that's because of all of your prayers, so I say Thank you to each and every one of you who prayed. Isn't prayer great? It really does work! :)

Last week I heard this song on the radio and then today on my way home it came on the radio again and I had to let you enjoy it with me. It's by Ginny Owens and she has such a beautiful, sweet voice. The words are amazing. It really makes me remember that even though life may feel crappy, God has a reason for it and I need to trust Him. If you want to listen along to her singing it while you read along with the words below, click here:


The pathway is broken
And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to

Chorus:
Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
so if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will walk through the fire
If You want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone

So when the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering that Your love put You through
And I will walk through the darkness
If You want me to

Little side note: Ginny is blind. I've seen her a few different places talk about her life and what she went through growing up and even what she still goes through today. Another reminder for me that there are always things to be thankful for even when you're going through your own valley.
