Arms to Hold You

I have come to know a lonliness, darkness that I have never known before. But I didn´t write this blog to brag or even talk about these things.

When you know the unprecidented depths of these things,  you also know the an uprecidented overflowing grace and mercy- a side of God you have never experienced before- if you so choose. 

I am so thankful for this grace and mercy...and for the arms of Christ to hold you when you walk through the spaces where there is only room for you and Him.

As I was writing this blog, this song began to play and I began to cry, realizing how relevent it was. (Lisa, this was the CD I opened today, and God knew it would minister to me today...thank you.) 

Sometimes I feel like winter, cold I feel

Icicles are forming

It's hard to tell what is real

Cold winter, cold winter day

Frost is on the windshield and it's hard to see

Air is like slivers

It's hard to breathe

It's a cold winter, cold winter day

Warm me up inside

And let your face from me not hide

'Cause You are what I long for

To melt this cold heart of mine

'Cause when You are around I am found

Sometimes I feel like the prodigal, a wandering weary son

Gone in search of something beautiful

Something to make me one

It's a cold winter, cold winter day

The world is full of lies that will only rob you blind

Hit ya' when you are not looking

And steal away your time

It's a cold winter, cold winter day

And warm me up inside

Let Your face from me not hide

'Cause You are what I long to find

To melt this cold heart of mine

And when You are around I am found

Warm me up inside

And let your face from me not hide

'Cause You are what I long to find

To melt this cold heart of mine

'Cause when You are around

'Cause when You are around

And when You are around I am found
