through the storm

I finally went to church today. First time since we found out about our loss. Another God intervention today. We have been looking for a new music director for a while and had one "interview" today. As he was up front leading the singing he started talking about his son who was very sick and they didn't know if he was going to make it. Then he said how he knows that within the congregation that there were bound to be people "walking through the storm" and that this song really helped him and his wife. Then we began to sing "You Never Let Go" by Matt Redmon. WOW!!!!

Little did this guy know that when we lost Blake and James we always thought of them when singing the song "Blessed Be Your Name" by ...... you guessed it Matt Redmon.

I have still been having contractions. Some painful so I know they are the real thing. And was told by the doctor that I needed to watch out for fever and also abdominal pain. Well the last week or so the abdominal pain has started. So that has me very worried. Thankfully no fever yet and baby girl is still a movin' and letting me know she is here. Still makes me anxious to get to the specialist on Thursday. But then listening to the lyrics of the song we sang Sunday...

Oh no you never let go
Through the calm and through the storm

Oh no you never let go
Every high and every low

Oh no you never let go
Lord you never let go of me.


I am very grateful for that. He wont let me go. Through a calm or storm.
