End of Trouble

"I can see the light
that is coming
for the heart
that holds on,..

And there will be an end
to these troubles,
but until that day comes

still I will praise You,
still I will praise You!.."

This is one of my favorite Zoe song, "You Never Let Go". As I was driving on the way to my daughter's school to check the team list if she made the volleyball team, I saw something that must, forever, be painted in my digital camera! Thank You, God, for your art!

When the sky opened up, rays shone through the dark clouds. It was thundering and lightning! We, the family, ate at Wendy's that eve. A strong storm passed through and literally knocked out the power! Most of the girls at Wendy's screamed from the top of their lungs! Mothers rushed to the dark bathrooms to check on their children.

And we scream, crying out to God, each time our lives have been shaken by the thunder and lightning of life's problems! As we endure each of our storms of life, there will always be a time when God's grace shines on us all! There will always be a light shining on the confusions we wrestle with. There will always be an "end" to each of our troubles. But, until that day comes, until that end happens, we should always continue to praise God!

And, oh, by the way, my daughter, Amanda, made the 8th grade volleyball team!

God bless you!
