Show Me

Today, I discovered Audrey Assad on a friend's Facebook page. Her song writing is the best I have heard in so long. The song that I have fallen in love with is called Show Me. Audrey describes this song as a song of redemptive suffering.

"It's about not wanting God to take away the pain just yet because I know it's worth something," she said. "And I have something to learn so just leave me here for right now, but be with me."

I don't have much else to say about the song that I haven't expressed in previous blogs, but it really spoke to me today. After my injection I had a really bad couple days, but that is been followed by a good couple days. I have no idea what the path for healing holds in store for me, but as I do continue to pray for healing, I pray harder for God to be here with me through it all.

Bind up these broken bones
Mercy bend and breathe me back to life
But not before You show me how to die
Oh, not before You show me how to die

So let me go like a leaf upon the water
Let me brave the wild currents flowing to the sea
And I will disappear into a deeper beauty
But for now just stay with me
God, for now just stay with me
