Praise You in this storm

I had a couple of down time days, and they weren't fun at all. This song by Casting Crowns is just so powerful. Every time I hear it, I get goosebumps. Even during bad times we need to still praise Him through it all. I have learned that if I let myself sit in my sadness, satan wins. I'm to the point where no matter what, I will still give Him all of me. Whatever satan tries to throw at me to bring me down, it won't matter. I will still praise Him.


I was sure by now,
God, that You would have reached down and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen and it's still raining as the thunder rolls I barely hear
You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"and as Your mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives and takes away.
And I'll praise you in this storm and I will lift my hands for
You are who You are no matter where I am and
every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side and though my heart is torn I will praise You in this storm
I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You and raised me up again my strength is almost gone
how can I carry on if I can't find You and as the thunder rolls I barely hear
You whisper through the rain "I'm with you"and as
Your mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives and takes away
I lift my eyes onto the hills where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth

Darcy and I have talked about this song a couple of times this past week. We really have no other choice but to praise Him through the storms. It's survival mode!
