Okay, I need to apologize to my readers because it seems like I can never leave this pocket of time called difficulty. One day the Lord will lead me out of it -the Holy Spirit comforts me in the midst of it and his love beckons me forward…
My Father, today I feel like I’m swimming in an open wound. I’m still deeply grieving my dad. I need your healing in this wound so it can heal in a healthy way.
I am near my daughter. He’s here with me and he loves you.
Father, I can’t stop crying today. When will this grieving be done? I trust you in this journey into healing -my eyes are on you.
Caroline, come, walk with me and I’ll see you through.
Reflection:
My favourite song is Goodness of God. Despite anything we go through, God is good, and that will never change. I love this song the most because it’s the song God put in my heart almost a year ago when I was so desperate for his reassurance… God (and his love) is faithful during wilderness seasons in our life, and he faithfully leads us out of them and continues to be with us afterwards. Some other songs that I love are, What a Beautiful Name and Holy Spirit by Bryan + Katie Torwalt, and Come to the River. The Lord gave me a short dream or vision a while ago where I saw a quick picture of someone’s hand lovingly pet the mane of the Lion of Judah to the Holy Spirit song. And it’s this song that I sing in the room before I do my recordings, because as I sing it, the Holy Spirit comes and fills the room with his anointing peace which enables me to hear him better and follow his leading. In the past the Lord has also led me to begin listening to Matthew West -albums All In, and Hello, My Name Is… It seems like I can relate to many of his songs. Many many blessings to you today and the rest of the week!!
