This song came out the year Alex was born and went to be with Jesus. You all know how music speaks to my heart... I played this song over and over and over... Fall used to be my favorite time of year, then October 2006 came and went, and it was no longer my favorite. As time has passed, it is slowing becoming my favorite again. But now again someone who I hold dear to my heart is gone.
My Pastor, Brent Page has went to be with Jesus. He and his family opened their arms to me and my family when we were searching for another church home. Pastor Page married us. Pastor and his wife were there for us when our son Alex passed away. I can't imagine what I would do without my loving husband, Tim. I am so broken-hearted for Lisa and the rest of their family.
I don't know what else to say... God, You are in control, always.
Bring the Rain - MercyMe
I can count a million times
People asking me how I
Can praise You with all that I've gone through
The question just amazes me
Can circumstances possibly
Change who I forever am in You
Maybe since my life was changed
Long before these rainy days
It's never really ever crossed my mind
To turn my back on you, oh Lord
My only shelter from the storm
But instead I draw closer through these times
So I pray
Bring me joy, bring me peace
Bring the chance to be free
Bring me anything that brings You glory
And I know there'll be days
When this life brings me pain
But if that's what it takes to praise You
Jesus, bring the rain
I am Yours regardless of
The dark clouds that may loom above
Because You are much greater than my pain
You who made a way for me
By suffering Your destiny
So tell me what's a little rain
So I pray
Holy, holy, holy
Is the Lord God Almighty
