Sometimes a song just resonates. Laura Story's "Blessings" is one. I have listened to it for weeks on the radio, and just happened to stumble on this interview today. Laura is sharing the inspiration behind the song. If you have time, it is worth a listen.
She understands the heartache of cancer. The lyrics speak to the soul who is suffering through the anguish of unanswered prayer, the promise of healing, the reality of tears. We wrestle with the implications. We struggle to believe. Laura reminds gently that God can move mountains and is truly loving us through the valley. Could God possibly be blessing us by not giving us the very thing we ask for? Is this journey calling us closer to the One who longs for our very heart, promising eternal healing even as we cry out?
The words flow from a heart that has hurt. Has struggled. Has found a foothold of faith...
