My only sister passed away after a battle with cancer last week a week after her 54th birthday and this was her favorite song. It offered her comfort and peace even though I know she was in pain. I was not with her for much of that battle but I know that she was given strength by this all those sleepless nights when she couldn't even sleep because of the pain. This song was played at her funeral. It brings tears to my eyes to listen to it. I know that she was in pain...but she is with her Lord now...resting in peace. Love you forever my sister. I wish I were there for you in your time of need. We will meet again soon.❤😢

Why are we so willfully blind? Why can't we see and recognize God in everything He has created? He is in the warmth of the sun, He is in the power of the storm, His goodness is displayed in the innate beauty of every single flower. The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. All praise, worship, glory, and dominion belong to our Holy God, forever and ever.

My beloved wife died of cancer 3 years ago after battling the disease for more than 3 years. And I once planned to end my life by jumping from the 32nd floor of the hospital. But then, the faces of my children crossed my mind. And I said to myself " NO... I have to move on for them to the very end". Until now I am not the same as before. The image of the pain that my wife had to experience while fighting this disease is always on my mind all the time. But then the Lord Jesus Christ always anointed my soul to continue living this life to the fullest. And I heard a lot of uplifting songs like this. And without realizing it, my tears fell without realizing it, knowing that God still loves me in all my suffering. Thank you for this song... You have helped many people to get out of their sadness and suffering. May God always bless you all.

Isaiah 48 - The Battle within “If only you would attend to my commandments, your peace would be like a river, your vindication like the waves of the sea, Your descendants like the sand, the offspring of your loins like its grains, Their name never cut off or blotted out from my presence. Go forth from Babylon, flee from Chaldea! With shouts of joy declare this, announce it; Make it known to the ends of the earth, Say: “The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob. They did not thirst when he led them through dry lands; Water from the rock he set flowing for them; he cleft the rock, and waters welled forth.” There is no peace for the wicked, says the LORD.” Isaiah 48:18-22 Isaiah 48 - The battle within. Can we play God? What I mean about play is fake our love for Him, will we get that past Him? Isaiah looks at a people and sees a people playing God. “Hear this, house of Jacob called by the name Israel, sprung from the stock of Judah, You who swear by the name of the LORD and invoke the God of Israel without sincerity, without justice,”. Isaiah 48:1 God sees the heart so there is no playing God. 1 Samuel 16:7 The choices we make each day reveals our heart to God. We do not see the spiritual battle going on but we feel the effects of it. Yesterday was a cold morning, the bed was nice and warm, a delay to my start, the day got away from me. Do we sacrifice our time and give some of it to God? Simple decisions each day reveals the heart. Recognize the battle, do not loose your peace, it is such an easy thing to do, one day leads to two, two to three and before you know it, there is a bunch of weeds that have grown up between the wheat. Be obedient to God’s will even when it is uncomfortable. Have a blessed day, He loves you. What is God saying to me: There is lessons in the failures, continue on, it is going to be a good day. Dear Father, I see the battle, I see the struggle that is occurring. We fall victim to the schemes of the devil and do not see it happening. Your words speak life into my soul, they give me joy and reassurance that all is well. You see into tomorrow and are with me, I thank You for Your guidance and protective hand that watches over my coming and going. I trust in You! Prayers for a friend burying his mother, comfort him Lord in his time of need. Thank You Father of knowing another and seeing him win the race even in the trials of life. Prayers for a friend who lost his job, may he see the battle. I ask this in the Holy name of Jesus, Amen. Mary, Queen of Saints, Pray for us. St Joesph, Patron of the Dying, Pray for us. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXmvfn-PpMp1bKs Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b
