I'll Praise You In This Storm

Today on the local news was a story about the biggest clinic in my city pulling out of the Health Organization which encompasses the hospitals, the clinics, the Dr. offices, labs, x-ray offices, etc. They are disgusted with how the organization is run and how they treat people...so now I know it is not just me that was feeling neglected and insulted. If a whole clinic of 25 doctors got disgusted with this city's health care system and pulled out to form their own system, there is a BIG Problem in this city. That gives me some hope that another city in Canada might not be so cruel, maybe we will have to move.
I am in so much pain, even though I got my pain meds, I guess I went without it for so long, that it will take a few days to build up enough in my body to take the pain away. So now I know what horrid pain I would have without the pain medicine, and it is pain that makes life not worth living. A pain you can not even feel human through.
Even though I am hurting, I still pray, and try to be still and listen for answers. Prayer is not jut talking to God, it is listening for what He wants to tell you! I feel quite close to the Lord,even if I don't understand His plan for this suffering.
I have added this song to the music box on the top right of this page. You can click on the song to hear it as you read the lyrics. You can click on any song you would like to hear there.
This is how I feel. I will praise Him in this storm! I love Him and trust Him, even if I don't understand.

Praise You in This Storm
words by Mark Hall/music by Mark Hall and Bernie Herms
sung by Casting Crowns

I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.

Chorus:
And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
for You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You
and raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on
if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away

Chorus

I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth

Chorus

Blessings, Bluebirdy

sheila, that is so brave of you. (((HUGS))) you're in my prayers everyday. the message this afternoon at church was about healing and it's not about the reason why we got this sickness, but the purpose. God's purpose is for the Lord's name to be glorified in our lives. sheila, i was also diagnosed years ago to have lupus. that's the reason why i lost two babies. now i'm having problems with my marriage. i don't even know where my husband is in the states. But i believe that God has a purpose for all of these. Jesus will be glorified in everything we're going through because our God is mighty to save us. those who trust in Him will never be put to shame.

hello Shiela, I tried to send this message in your email but I cant send it. There's an error with the email ad you've given me. So I am writing it here anyway. Here's the content of my email:

I am so sorry for not being able to answer your message soon. I have been very busy at work. I dont even have time to visit my blog. We have been rendering overtime at the office for the past few days. When I arrived home I dont open my computer anymore because I am tired already and I only want to go to bed.

I am glad your Doctor has arrived already. You know I really feel happy for you. I thank the Lord being so good. I will tell you about my pain the next time I will write to you. I am at the Office now, it's our lunch break.

You said you have something to tell me. What is it? I will be glad to hear from you soon.

Until here my friend... Til then... Please take care always...



praying for you,


Sheila


P.S.

Here's my email address: shei1cdo@yahoo.com (note after the "i" is number one. It's not l)
