True Worship Tuesday - "Praise You in this Storm"



I would like to dedicate this weeks post to the residents of Western/Middle TN who were affected by the recent floods. I also dedicate this post to Lorraine Patterson. Lorraine is such an inspiration to me. Her daughter, Chrissie, recently had open heart surgery, and throughout the whole ordeal, Lorraine continues to have faith and praise God with every breath. I am always blessed and encouraged by her posts. You can read more about Lorraine and her precious daughter, Chrissie at her blog, All are Precious in His Sight.


If you listen to Contemporary Christian music I am sure you have heard the song, "Praise You in this Storm" by Casting Crowns. The chorus of this song says,
"I will praise You in this storm, And I will lift my hands, for You are who You are, no matter where I am, And every tear I've cried, You hold in Your hands, You've never left my side, and even though my heart is torn, I will praise You in this storm."
I have often wondered how my faith would stand if I were ever to find myself in a "storm". I hope and pray that my faith is strong enough to continue to praise God no matter the circumstances. It is hard when in a dire situation to remember that God is still in control.
"As the thunder rolls, I barely hear Your whisper through the rain, "I'm with you." And as Your mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives And takes away."
 My prayer is that no matter the situation I am in, that my praise to God remains. Please take the time to watch and listen to the YouTube video below of the song I referred to in this post.







I know this weeks post was not a "lift you up, feely good" kind of post, but I feel like it is what God wanted to be posted.

Your sister in Christ,

I have been though so many storms the last two years. There have been times I could not see any ray of light at all. This song by Casting Crowns got me though some of my most difficult days. I have never lost hope and God has always remained faithful!
Blessings!
