“If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart.. I'll always be with you.”
~A.A. Milne, from "Winnie the Pooh"

A Prayer Immediately Answered



Wow!
The fear still exists. I don't think it is possible to do this completely fear free. But God for sure just took a random search and placed in my path the very words that I was waiting to hear without even knowing it.
Yet another time when a simple song speaks to the rawest parts of me. Yet another time when I am rejuvenated because I have heard His voice, coming when I least expected it.
Is it coincidence that I found THIS song tonight? When I was so overwhelmed with fear that I couldn't catch my breath? Maybe it is. But I don't think so.......





What Faith Can Do by Kutless

Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes and make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think it’s more than you can take
But you're stronger, stronger than you know
Don’t you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do

It doesn’t matter what you’ve heard
Impossible is not a word
It’s just a reason for someone not to try
Everybody’s scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It’ll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do

Overcome the odds
You don't have a chance
(That’s what faith can do)
When the world says you can’t
It’ll tell you that you can!

I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do
That's what faith can do!
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise




"Broken hearts become brand new....That's what faith can do."
Isn't that what we're praying for? Liddy's tiny broken heart will be brand new. I hear you loud and clear. I am bolstered. I can breathe again.

  1. That song has always been the prayer I pray for my beautiful little Liddy. I love you Heidi. I love that beautiful bug. Hang in there. Faith will bring you through and when you feel you have lost your strength, God will carry you. Praying for a miraculous quick recovery. xoxo
