Singin' The Blues
How many times do we find ourselves overwhelmed by circumstances. Some we control, some we can't. I wonder why people need to suffer, my family, myself, loved ones. There are times when it's even so overwhelming it's hard to stop and pray. Hard to be in God's presence and accept the healing He can offer. When these things happen, and they will, what helps me most is to begin to sing His praises. I find it's much easier to sing than pray at times like that. The louder the better, so my car is the best option. That's when He puts the smile back on my face. That's when He fills me with His Spirit, with hope, with calm, with love. Rehearsing His faithfulness is what my heart needs when it's breaking. And He always draws me closer when I look to Him. My circumstances can't overwhelm Him, and they begin to lose their power over me.
