Tragedy Over Faith
10:59 AM Posted by Eric :)
My ex-neighbor died a couple days ago because of a heart attack. His wife found him sitting on the bathroom floor unexpectedly. It's hard enough when one expects such tragedy, and I could see it in her eyes that she was truly, truly heartbroken. She kept repeating the phrase, "I know God's in control, but..." and it really hit the spot in my heart.
I wonder how I would react to hardships that seem overwhelming at the time. I've always viewed struggles as blessings from God, but sometimes I wonder if I'll just breakdown and start seeing the very opposite. I think since God is the cause, He is definitely subject to blame. Blame as in crying in pain as a child to a father, hoping that he would somehow ease the pain and give understanding rather than cursing or pouring hatred. Will I turn to God for guidance or will I fall?
How He Loves

He is jealous for me
He loves like a hurricane
I am a tree,
bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions - eclipsed by glory.
I realize just how beautiful you are,
and how great your affections are for me
Oh, how he loves us so
Oh, how he loves us
How he loves us so
He loves like a hurricane
I am a tree,
bending beneath the weight of his wind and mercy
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions - eclipsed by glory.
I realize just how beautiful you are,
and how great your affections are for me
Oh, how he loves us so
Oh, how he loves us
How he loves us so
We are his portion;
and he is our prize -
drawn to redemption by the grace in his eyes
If grace is an ocean - we’re all sinking
Then heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss
My heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don’t have time to maintain these regrets
when I think about the way he loves us
Oh, how he loves us.
and he is our prize -
drawn to redemption by the grace in his eyes
If grace is an ocean - we’re all sinking
Then heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss
My heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don’t have time to maintain these regrets
when I think about the way he loves us
Oh, how he loves us.
I really like this song. I hope you guys enjoy it too.
Thought of the Day

God is jealous for me.
I've always heard people say it, but never really thought too much of it.
It's so deep and heavy.
