Pure JOY! (part 3)


Another song has been slowly changing my perspective on how to react during difficult times.  My favorite line:

What if my greatest disappointments
Or the achings of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy
And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise


 


Not entirely sure how I feel about the ramifications of this verse, but it is comforting knowing that I'm not alone.

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God." 2 Cor 1:3-4

I hate to break it to you, but it's a rip off of Clive Staples Lewis. (Aren't most quotes?)
