I Will Rise

I checked Peggy's status first thing this morning and she had posted pictures of Ken and the family. I know she is still holding onto hope, but I also realize that it is day 7 since he has been trapped. My eyes stung with tears for her and the emotional turmoil she must be dealing with right now. Yet, she is still holding onto Jesus for every breath!


I look at all this poor woman is dealing with, and then feel awful for my own pity party I continue to have for mysleffcxz. As I was coming home after taking Gavin to school, I heard one of my favorite songs. I just sat and listened to every word and rejoiced in it's truth.

Chris Tomlin "I Will Rise"

There's a peace I've
come to know
Though my heart and flesh may fail
There's an anchor for my soul
I can say, it is well

Jesus has overcome
And the grave is overwhelmed
The victory is won
He is risen from the dead

And I will rise when He calls my name
No more sorrow, no more pain
I will rise on eagle's wings
Before my God fall on my knees
And rise, I will rise, etc...

Still praying for the Bourlands...
