working through the fog

I have heard this song a couple times this week and God has really spoken to me through it. So i thought i would share the lyrics.

If you want me to by Ginny Owens

The pathway is broken


And The signs are unclear

And I don't know the reason why You brought me here

But just because You love me the way that You do

I'm gonna walk through the valley

If You want me to

Chorus:

Cause I'm not who I was

When I took my first step

And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet

so if all of these trials bring me closer to you

Then I will walk through the fire

If You want me to


It may not be the way I would have chosen

When you lead me through a world that's not my home

But You never said it would be easy

You only said I'd never go alone

So when the whole world turns against me

And I'm all by myself

And I can't hear You answer my cries for help

I'll remember the suffering that Your love put You through

And I will walk through the darkness

If You want me to


Cuz when I cross over Jordan

Gonna sing, gonna shout,

Gonna look into Your eyes and see You never let me down

So take me on the pathway that leads me home to You

And I will walk though the valley

If You want me to


Yes, I will walk through the valley

If You want me to


This song makes me remember that all the pain all the fog are not in vain. That is the lesson i'm learning right now and its a hard one sometimes. This has been a couple weeks of high pain high emotions but also some really good times of blessings. I think sometimes I and everyone can get caught up in all the bad that its hard to see the good. However I'm clinging to those blessings. Like Wednesday was mine and my hubby's 3 1/2 year of marriage mark. Early on in the day we had a misunderstanding and i let the emotions get to me. However later that day I calmed down and prayed and let God bring the blessing. WHich just blessed my soul to no end. We couldn't get flowers so hubby brought me a few sheets of flower stickers. SO i got the clothespins and attached them to a stiraphoam cup. This may seem small but to me this made my day and made me feel like i was on the top of the world. So i have to remember that even though its painful its still worthwhile and not in vain. I'm starting to fight the fog as well again. The fog is anxiety, depression, seeming like i just can't think right. I have some prayer cards here by my computer station that i have been reading and rereading and GOd has really used those.  Sorry today's post is very rambly and may not seem very cohesive lol.
Here is one i will share with you today.  Help me Lord not to be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving , present my requests to you. And your peace, O God, which transends all understanding, will guard my heart and my mind in Christ Jesus. (Philipians 4:6-7)
