Funky Chicken

I am stuck in a funk – not motivated, feeling sort of down, just generally out of sorts. Not sure why. But I definitely do not like it. In an attempt to chase away the blues, I have been listening to praise music on Pandora today, and one of my favorites came on. I am trying to make it my mantra today, so thought I would share it with you.

Jesus, Bring the Rain by MercyMe

I can count a million times, people asking me how I can praise You with all that I've gone through. The question just amazes me. Can circumstances possibly change who I forever am in You?

Maybe since my life was changed, long before these rainy days, it's never really ever crossed my mind to turn my back on you, oh Lord, my only shelter from the storm, but instead I draw closer through these times. So I pray…

Bring me joy. Bring me peace. Bring the chance to be free. Bring me anything that brings You glory. And I know there'll be days when this life brings me pain, but if that's what it takes to praise You,
Jesus, bring the rain.

I am yours regardless of the clouds that may loom above because you are much greater than my pain. You who made a way for me, suffering your destiny. So tell me what’s a little rain?

Bring me joy. Bring me peace. Bring the chance to be free. Bring me anything that brings You glory. And I know there'll be days when this life brings me pain, but if that's what it takes to praise You,
Jesus, bring the rain.

Holy, holy, holy - Holy, holy, holy
is the lord God almighty - is the Lord God almighty.
I'm forever singing.
