Everything Falls

I went to bed last night thanking God for his blessings and for His wisdom. I needed to hear from Him. I needed Him to speak to me.  I needed to feel His presence and His peace.  This morining was crazy.  We did not wake up on a good note...at all. Kaylee was sick.  Reese wanted to stay home too and Becca was upset because everyone else is upset.  I look to the sky and kinda of say, "Really God. This is not what I asked from you as I cried myself to sleep."  I get in the car and start driving and what do I see...Doodle one of our dogs running down Hailey.  "Really God. I am in a hurry and I have a busy day". So I chase Doodle back towards home and hope she gets there (she did).  Then as I listen to the radio, the following song comes on.  It is called, 'Everything Falls' written by Stephen Fee.

You said you'd never leave or forsake me, when You said this life is gonna shake me.
You said this world is gonna bring trouble, oh my soul. But this I know.
When everything falls apart, Your arms hold me together.
When everything falls apart, You're the only hope for this heart.
When everything falls apart, and my strength is gone,
I find You mighty and strong. You keep holding on. You keep holding on.
When I see darkness all around me, when I see tragedy has found me, I still believe.
Your faithful arms will never let me go. Still I know.
When everything falls apart, Your arms hold me together.
When everything falls apart, You're the only hope for this heart.
When everything falls apart, and my strength is gone,
I find You mighty and strong. You keep holding on. You keep holding on.
Sorrow will last for the night, but hope is rising with the sun,
it's rising with the sun. There will be storms in this life, but I know
you have overcome, you have overcome.
When everything falls apart, Your arms hold me together.

When everything falls apart, You're the only hope for this heart.
When everything falls apart, and my strength is gone,
I find You mighty and strong. You keep holding on. You keep holding on.

I know that when you are doing God's will, Satan finds you prime target for attack. James 1:2-3 says, "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance".  So I will chose joy today.
