A Song For Today

I don't really have the time to write a lot about what's going through my head right now. There's a lot and it's definitely meant for another post....maybe more than one? I dunno. All I can say is that I am now entering another time of uncertainty with this whole getting pregnant thing. I am about to start my first round of Clomid, plus an injection of Ovidrel and an impending IUI (a.k.a. Artificial Insemination) in the next few weeks. To say I need prayer for sanity would be the understatement of the year, but I'm gonna say it.....People, I need prayer!

Sometimes I think that I can't take too much more. I think that enough is enough already......don't I deserve a consolation baby/prize for all my hard work? Or at least a break? Something? No? Ok, I will press on. God knows what I can handle and by gum, He has chosen the right couple for the job. Yes, I have had to wait for literally everything good to happen in my life and all the waiting has been soooo worth it! Prime example, my amazing husband, Matt!

Okay, okay...I have written more than I originally intended to. The point of this post is to give you the gift of an amazing song. It is a song that constantly goes through my head at any given time that I'm feeling weak and weary. It is by a spectacular Christian artist by the name of Phil Wickham and the song is called "Safe". I am going to post the lyrics below and hopefully find a way to post the actual song below the words. I hope that the song and its words sink deep into your soul, especially if you're hurting today and just need to be reminded that God holds you in His capable arms and He is and will always keep you safe. Enjoy!

PS. Be sure to pause the player at the bottom of my blog if you're going to listen to this song.

"Safe"
Phil Wickham

To the one who's dreams are falling all apart
And all you're left with is a tired and broken heart
I can tell by your eyes you think your on your own
but you're not all alone

Have you heard of the One who can calm the raging seas
Give sight to the blind, pull the lame up to their feet
With a love so strong and never let you go
oh you're not alone

You will be safe in His arms
You will be safe in His arms
'Cause the hands that hold the world are holding your heart
This is the promise He made
He will be with You always
When everything is falling apart
You will be safe in His arms

Did you know that the voice that brings the dead to life
Is the very same voice that calls you to rise
So hear Him now He's calling you home
You will never be alone

These are the hands that built the mountains
the hands that calm the seas
These are the arms that hold the heavens
they are holding you and me

These are hands that healed the leper
Pulled the lame up to their feet
These are the arms that were nailed to a cross
to break our chains and set us free
