Thankful Heart

On my way to work today I heard a song that had helped me get through a very hard and emotional time in my past. Sometimes I play songs on repeat and just sing without paying attention to the words.  This morning the words came alive again and I couldn’t help but Thank God for all he has delivered me from.  

The song is “Let Your Heart Beat Again” by Danny Gokey

Beginning, just let that word wash over you

It’s alright now, love’s healing hands have pulled you through

So get back up, take step one

Leave the darkness, feel the sun

‘Cause your story’s far from over

And your journey’s just begun

Tell your heart to beat again

Close your eyes and breathe it in

Let the shadows fall away

Step into the light of grace

Yesterday’s a closing door

You don’t live there anymore

Say goodbye to where you’ve been

And tell your heart to beat again

Let every heartbreak, and every scar

Be a picture that reminds you

Who has carried you this far

‘Cause love sees farther than you ever could

In this moment, heaven’s working

Everything for your good

That line “Remind you who has carried you this far!” hit hard this morning. God has seen me through so much. He has and is still working everything out for His Glory! All I have to do is follow Him! I am so thankful that I have a Heavenly Father that loves me that much.

Then tonight I read this verse:

“But let all who take refuge in you rejoice; let them ever sing for joy, and spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may exult in you.”

‭‭Psalm‬ ‭5‬:‭11‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I just had to write and give thanks to God for what he has done for me and my family!! I want to encourage you to hold on tight to His promises. No matter what you are facing He understands and loves you. He will help you walk victoriously through it. Trust Him and let Him be your refuge. He will provide the strength you need!
