Beauty From Pain

This was hard day... and I'm sorry for those of you who started off reading this blog hoping to read about our country life and all the things that entails. This is the season I am in right now and though alot of it has to do with living on less, alot of it also entails the pain of divorce. This song ministered to me SO much today I thought I would share it. I also had a friend and her children stop by for a visit. I love that. SO much.... It was SO refreshing to have someone here. It made it feel a little bit more like home to have loved ones here. I'm rambling - sorry. It was a hard day. Lots of crying, praing, doubting, more crying... you get the idea. lol Anyway, here's the song lycris. PLEASE, no flames, I'm not crazy about this group either but this song really ministered to me.
===============================

The lights go out all around me
One last candle to keep out the night
And then the darkness surrounds me
I know I'm alive
But I feel like I died
And all that's left is true, except that it's over
My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made
I try to keep warm but I just grow colder
I feel like I'm slipping away
After all this has passed
I still will remain
After I've cried my last
There'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today
Someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain
My whole world is the pain inside me
The best I can do is just get through the day
When life before is only a memory
I wonder why God lets me walk through this place
And though I can't understand why this happened
I know that I will when I look back someday
And see how you've brought beauty from ashes
And made me as gold purified through these flames
After all this has passed
I still will remain
After I've cried my last
There'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today
Someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain
Here I am at the end of me
Trying to hold to what I can't see
I forgot how to hope
This night's been so long
I cling to your promise
There will be a dawn
After all this has passed
I still will remain
After I've cried my last
There'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be today
Someday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain

Oh, Sweetie. I just wish there were more we could do to support you. We *are* praying and we *do* care about what is going on with you.
Many hugs to you...
