It is in the midst of the storms, the hurt and the pain that His arms seem to be open the widest.
15 minutes ago I found this clip a different version of the very song I chose for my wedding 19 years ago for my our first dance. It is a love song BUT a love song to God.
"Lord, pour out your love and comfort on Cat and anyone else who should read this and need the comfort that it seems like only You can provide. Minister to her and wrap her in YOUR arms for we are weak and our clinging to you is fickle, at best. But, when we desire to be held by you, no one, nothing on earth or hell can pull us out of Your loving, omnipotent, yet tender hold. Bind her wounds, give her rest from the that which is crashing down on her. When we have nothing, no protection, no shelter, that is when we can start to see that You truly are able, willing and desirous of providing that safe haven. Show Youself to be that loving Father to Cat and anyone who will earnestly seek you. These things I petition in the powerful name of Jesus. Amen"
(Note: I fell asleep exhausted after playing basketball with my son and woke up 2 hours ago West Coast time. I have just been journaling and am about to catch a few hours sleep but very likely my awaking was also to respond to you at this time? God uses His people to minister to others who are hurting.)
