A few things are on my heart tonight.
Today my brother-in-law had surgery to correct his deviated nasal septum (nose surgery) and ended up having all kinds of complications. This was weighing heavily on my mind and, while I was explaining to my mom what was going on, my son was listening. He became concerned about his uncle, so I told him that we would pray for him. He wholeheartedly agreed. He told me to go ahead and start, and he would follow, and that is what he did, basically repeating everything that I said.
I was extremely moved that my son was touched. And I got to thinking about how much the Lord is touched by the feeling of our infirmities.
When my husband came home, he told me about this song. I have since listened to it several times and told him it has become my "new favourite song". We then started talking about how much Jesus really does care and how He does cry along with us when we are hurting.
Dave then said something to me that I think is truly profound.
"Think about it. Jesus knew when Lazarus died that he was going to resurrect him. Yet, he was still moved deeply - by the pain of Mary and Martha - and cried."
I have been moved tonight. I pray you are as well. God bless.

Yah..it sometimes feels easier to push away the feelings even when you know God is patiently waiting for you to open up and talk to Him. It seems so overwhelming to actually pray sometimes just because you know the hurt that you have to pray through..this song definitely helped me when I let it.
Thanks you..everyone is just on the inspirational songs tonight :P
