"My Brightness"

It's so funny how God moves & works in my life...
I guess it was about a month ago that Brian burned Charlie Halls' new CD, "The Bright Sadness" for me to put on my i-tunes for my phone, I actually forgot where I put the CD but found it today when he asked me where that was. (Perfect timing!)
He was out front washing our cars and wanted to listen to that cd. I then leave a few hours later to run to Walmart while the kids are napping to get some stuff for the kids for preschool & some other things... I sit in the car and the song that starts playing is, "My Brightness", #4 on his new cd.
I listen to it the first time and bawled the whole way to Walmart, replaying it 3 times to listen again to the all too perfect lyrics.
My heart has been so heavy for my friend, Kenzie, as she is battling with these contractions that refuse to subside.... the Bible says we are to "...pray without ceasing..." and that is exactly where my heart and mind have been since Wednesday when I got the call that she was being admitted.
We sometimes question why God does some of the things that He does because we don't see the big picture.... but we just need to trust. "He knows where they are going on this new journey and he knows where they've been...."
Those are part of the lyrics of this AMAZING song that I know is the heart's cry of Dusty & Kenzie.... here are the lyrics to this song.
“My Brightness”
Verse 1:
Well I’ve been hit from every corner, and I’ve been thrown from side to side. And the cracks are on the inside, so I come to you for life. Your presence always heals me, so I wanna drink it in, You know where we’re going God, and You know where I’ve been…
Chorus:
And your Love is like a rock, when I’m spinning, Your love is like a rock, when I’m spinning, you’re love is like a rock when I’m spinning, around.
Verse 2:
Yesterday I felt so angry, and today so insecure. And I hate it that I wrestle with the God that I adore, Your presence always heals me, so I wanna drink it in. You know where we're going God, You know where I’ve been.
Chorus:
And your love is like a rock, when I’m spinning.Your love is like a rock, when I’m spinning.
Your love is like a rock, when I’m spinning....
Bridge:
And I know less about You, but my heart loves You so much more.
You’re the bright in sadness, you’re my Brightness.
I wish this thing could pass from me, but I’m wanting what you want.
So bring me high or bring me low just hold me in your love.
Chorus:
And your love….is like a rock, when I’m spinning, your love is like a rock, when I’m spinning your love is like a rock when I’m spinning your love is like a rock when I’m spinning….(repeat)
Your love is like a rock when I’m spinning… around.


~Lord, my prayer for The Stanfield's is that you would be their ROCK while they are "spinning".....Stay put precious Faith, I know you are so excited to meet your amazing family, but please stay put for a little while longer.
