I actually came across this women a couple of months ago and was reminded of her on the Nester's blog. http://especiallyheather.com/
What a story she tells, what a life she has had. A beautiful reminder of who is really in control of our lives. I can't help but reflect on my own life and the many blessings God has given me. I hope though if ever I face similar trials I will be able to respond as humbly as Heather.
Not sure if you are familiar with a song called "Blessed Be Your Name" One of my favorites.
Love these words:
Blessed be your name
In the land that is plentiful
Where the streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out,
I turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say...
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
Blessed be your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's all as it should be
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out,
I turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say...
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, Blessed be your name
Have a blessed weekend
