Quite a few times lately a song, Blessings by Laura Story, has come before me and the words really make me think.

“…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…”

As I think back over this year, I think of the struggles God has walked, or is walking, with me through.  It has been hard, but I see glimpses of God’s blessings through it.

But, even more than the challenges I have been dealing with, I think of, and pray for, so many people in my life who have been walking through much more difficult struggles.

I would like to tag those I am specifically thinking of, but that might bother some. So, if you are walking through a hard time, or have been, and I know about it, I’m praying for you and for you to trust God to walk with you through it.
