Everyone has bad days. Widows and Widowers know this well.
Twenty-Three years ago, my wife died.
Some days it seems like 23 years just happened.
Other days seem like a lifetime ago.
No matter what day you have today, countless others are experiencing bad days.
Like you, they experience fear, sleeplessness, anxiety, unbelief, defeat, and hopelessness.
I do not know who will read this post and listen to the beautiful words and testimony of “MercyMe.”
I don’t know if your faith relies on what you can control or your belief is based on what God controls.
Even though you may feel out of control, those feelings are our outlook, not God’s.
Everyone wakes up to a new day. Some wake up to incredible hardships, and some wake up without a care in the world.
Some days are just like that. When it seems like your world is falling apart, you may question your future and your faith.
I pray that those who take a moment listen to the words in this song by “MercyMe” will find peace.
Their album, “Even If,” will bring comfort, peace, hope, and faith in your future.
As survivors of loss, we go through bad days, but we also go through good days.
Some days we are confused. On other days we wonder what is happening to us.
Occasionally our vision gives us a little clearer focus on our futures.
I was in your shoes 23 years ago and had terrible days of doubt and fear.
When I opened my eyes, I realized I was not alone.
God was always there, and my leaning on Him helped me survive my journey through the grief of loss.
No matter what your day is like today, I believe the words in the song.
The writers’ story behind the music will bring you hope and comfort on your journey today.
