stronger

 I have been listening to the Message channel on my Sirius radio.  Now, I also listen to the 90's and country channels, too, but have found myself listening to this channel a lot more and really listening to the words and how they pertain to me.  I heard this song not long after we found out about Chandler's conditions when I was pregnant and thought "this song is for me!"  Well, I heard it again the other day and thought the same thing!  How fitting are the words?!?  The Lord is trying to tell me something, I just know it!

The song is "Stronger" by Mandisa and if you get a minute, pull it up on u tube and see if you don't think that the lyrics are appropriate for me and Kris....

Hey, heard you were up all night
Thinking about how your world ain't right
And you wonder if things will ever get better
And you're asking why is it always raining on you
When all you want is just a little good news
Instead of standing there stuck out in the weather

Oh, don't hang your head
It's gonna end
God's right there
Even if it's hard to see Him
I promise you that He still cares

[Chorus]
When the waves are taking you under
Hold on just a little bit longer
He knows that this is gonna make you stronger, stronger
The pain ain't gonna last forever
And things can only get better
Believe me
This is gonna make you stronger
Gonna make you stronger, stronger, stronger
Believe me, this is gonna make you Stronger

Try and do the best you can

Hold on and let Him hold your hand
And go on and fall into the arms of Jesus
Oh, lift your head it's gonna end
God's right there
Even when you just can't feel Him
I promise you that He still cares

[Chorus]

'Cause if He started this work in your life
He will be faithful to complete it
If only you believe it
He knows how much it hurts
And I'm sure that He's gonna help you get through this

When the waves are taking you under
Hold on just a little bit longer
He knows that this is gonna make you stronger, stronger
The pain ain't gonna last forever
In time it's gonna get better
Believe me
This is gonna make you stronger
