Reflections

I have often said I will write a book one day called All the Things I wish I had Never Seen....this thought came from the day to day issues I am faced with as a social worker.  However, as the Lord has continuously shown me His hand at work in every situation I face, I have rethought this ---to All the things....all the things He has done that were undeserved, all the things He saw fit to privilege me to be a part of, all the things He has blessed me with (not material things...), all the things He does that go unnoticed.  I have decided to blog about these things and see where it takes us.  May I never wish away any difficulty, any tragedy, any blessing or any circumstance...instead may I be thankful He saw fit to place me there at just the right time to use me or bless me.  May we all be happy in the place he has us.  The song Laura's Story comes to mind...Lyrics:


Cause 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 night, are Your mercies in disguise

What if my greatest disappointments, or the aching of this life;
Is a revealing of greater thirst that a world can't satisfy?

And what if trials of this life, the rain, the storms, the hardest nights;
Are Your mercies in disguise?

May I all the while hear His voice and find myself having a hallelujah fit because He decided I was worthy!
