Let the Tears Flow

As I sit here in tears this song came to mind....

let the river flow
by darrell evans

let the poor man say, "i am rich in Him"
let the lost man say, "i am found in Him"
oh let the river flow
let the blind man say, "i can see again"
let the dead man say, "i am born again"
oh let the river flow, oh let the river flow

let the river flow, let the river flow
Holy Spirit come, move in power
let the river flow, let the river flow
Holy Spirit come, move in power
let the river flow, let the river flow
let the river flow

It has been a really stressful 24 hours. In the midst of it I have tried to rely on God and have faith however, in my human-ness I have struggled and all but freaked out.
I was sitting here reading a blog post of an old friend and a link to another blog and I was humbled beyond belief.
Here are these families that are dealing with HUGE physical ailments that I cannot even begin to imagine. And I am freaking out over money. Seems so stupid now.
My heart breaks for these families. They struggle everyday for life.
My life is so easy compared to theirs. I don't want to stress over the little things. I don't want my life to be shallow.
I read the lyrics of this song and I do see my life. God has restored me. He has given me sight, life and I can truly say I am rich in Him.
I hate when I loose sight of that, but I am so thankful for the gentle reminders!
