It’s no big deal?
She wishes this were true
Tell this to her battle
When she’s lost and she’s confused
Tell this to her mountains
When the rocks keep coming loose
Tell this to her heart
When it’s battered and abused.
It’s no big deal?
She wishes it were so
Tell this to her giants
When they all begin to grow
Tell this to her ocean
When she’s in the undertow
Tell this to her storm
When it’s all that she has known.
Let’s not judge and criticise
Let’s not refuse to understand
We don’t know what they’ve been through
Or the battle still at hand
Not when Jesus came to die
To save us from our pride
He took compassion on the helpless
He forgave and healed the blind
He made a way where there was none
To save us from ourselves
He took on our infirmities
And He showed us how to love.
So it means a great deal
When they’re pouring out their hearts
When their searching for some hope
A single light in all their dark
When they’re lost and need to be found
In Jesus’ way we must abound.

First I want to apologize for the delay in responding. I did read this yesterday, but I guess I got sidetracked before I had a chance to comment. Second, I wanted to say that I do understand where you are coming from. A couple of times recently I asked the Lord what was wrong with me and why couldn’t I just be different. I am so thankful He loves us and cares for us and never leaves us. ❤️

No apologies necessary! You are not obligated to comment on every post! 😊 I get sidetracked, too, or am just unsure what to comment sometimes. When someone is wading through grief it’s hard to say if that will ever fully heal. It’s may dependent on the type of loss, but there may also be some things that can shift our perspective or give us some comfort. I will share more about what I am learning about loss and grief in the coming weeks. I’m processing everything in smaller portions so it could take a while. Yes, I’m thankfull that He always cares for us as well. ❤

I am looking forward to hearing more. Your posts have been a blessing to me. I love the idea of processing things in smaller portions. I think too often we try to take in too much and therefore can’t completely process it all.

Yes, definitely. I always want to figure things out right now. Either out of impatience or curiousity. Overeagerness. ☺ God is helping me to temper this bit by bit.
