[@pedropena5388]

So true!! What if your blessings come through raindrops What if Your healing comes through tears What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

[@makaylasooknanan9796]

Thank you for all my trials it has been a blessing in disguise and the lord show me that out of love that he put me through the fire of trial to purity me prepare me so i can be with him when he comes the more trial its a sign that the lord is working on us if we fight him it will be at our own lost

[@edwinwaldner5175]

Love how your faces all shine for Jesus !

[@abigailredclutchbarn]

This song ministers so much to me. I’m going through a rough time spiritually and physically. Overwhelmed by life and all the struggles and questions that go with it. But it means SO much to me that He loves and cares about me, even if it feels like He’s far away or not listening. Lord Jesus help this doubting heart to lean on You instead of being angry at or running from You.

[@sonnyguerra9428]

Hang in there God is with you through your tribulations. Blessed are those who mourn,for they will be comforted. Matthew 5:4

[@genivaldofalcon1]

"Blessings" We pray for blessings, we pray for peace Comfort for family, protection while we sleep We pray for healing, for prosperity We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering And all the while, You hear each spoken need Yet love is way too much to give us lesser things 'Cause what if your blessings come through rain drops What if Your healing comes through tears What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise We pray for wisdom, Your voice to hear We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near We doubt your goodness, we doubt your love As if every promise from Your word is not enough And all the while, You hear each desperate plea And long that we'd have faith to believe 'Cause what if your blessings come through rain drops What if Your healing comes through tears What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise When friends betray us When darkness seems to win We know that pain reminds this heart That this is not, This is not our home It's not our home 'Cause what if your blessings come through rain drops What if Your healing comes through tears What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near What if my greatest disappointments or the aching of this life Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy What if trials of this life The rain, the storms, the hardest nights Are your mercies in disguise

[@dianahdunn8075]

Blessings to you all. I pray for you all that you'll remain faithful till the end of time, Jesus is coming soon. Keep connected to Jesus.

FVA hat nicht nur ein erstklassiges Orchester und Chor sondern auch viele phantastische Solisten. Die Interpretation von "Blessings" durch Ellen Richards mit Ryo Fusamae als Instrumentenbegleitung darf als Highlight bezeichnet werden. Dieses Video ist eines der Besten, das FVA ins Netz gestellt hat. Ich bin einfach nur begeistert und ich glaube, Viele empfinden das auch. Die Leidenschaft fürs Singen lebt Ellen Richards. Ich wünsche dem gesamten Team Gottes Segen. Music from Paradiese!

[@zumbucafranciscodalazuma6670]

[@christiedecker2724]

Was just reading in Pastor Dennis Smith's 40 Days of Prayer series how trials ARE for our good...and someday we'll see how our seemingly greatest disappointments are among our greatest blessings. Amen!

[@biblenerd2024]

THanks for the good music. Glory to our God!

[@durich1000]

uplifting rendition of this most touching song. I have no doubt it was inspired by God. Thank you Ellen and Ryo! You have been a blessing to me! A song can reach where words can't... "Looking forward with prophetic vision to the perilous times into which the church of Christ was to enter, the apostle exhorted the believers to steadfastness in the face of trial and suffering. “Beloved,” he wrote, “think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you.” Trial is part of the education given in the school of Christ, to purify God’s children from the dross of earthliness. It is because God is leading His children that trying experiences come to them. Trials and obstacles are His chosen methods of discipline, and His appointed conditions of success. He who reads the hearts of men knows their weaknesses better than they themselves can know them. He sees that some have qualifications which, if rightly directed, could be used in the advancement of His work. In His providence He brings these souls into different positions and varied circumstances, that they may discover the defects that are concealed from their own knowledge. He gives them opportunity to overcome these defects and to fit themselves for service. Often He permits the fires of affliction to burn, that they may be purified. God’s care for His heritage is unceasing. He suffers no affliction to come upon His children but such as is essential for their present and eternal good. He will purify His church, even as Christ purified the temple during His ministry on earth. All that He brings upon His people in test and trial comes that they may gain deeper piety and greater strength to carry forward the triumphs of the cross. There had been a time in Peter’s experience when he was unwilling to see the cross in the work of Christ. When the Saviour made known to the disciples His impending sufferings and death, Peter exclaimed, “Be it far from Thee, Lord: this shall not be unto Thee.”Matthew 16:22. Self-pity, which shrank from fellowship with Christ in suffering, prompted Peter’s remonstrance. It was to the disciple a bitter lesson, and one which he learned but slowly, that the path of Christ on earth lay through agony and humiliation. But in the heat of the furnace fire he was to learn its lesson. Now, when his once active form was bowed with the burden of years and labors, he could write, “Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: but rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when His glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.” Ellen G. White 1911 - Acts of the Apostles p. 418.2 -
