The hubby and I were “doing” church at home this morning and listened to the song Blessings by Laura Story. It’s a huge reminder that it’s important while going through trials to have God’s perspective that they are His mercies in disguise.

When you’re going through the trials of separation or divorce, disease or sickness, disappointment or endless frustrations in yourself or one you love, God is still the God who loves you more than you can ever ask or imagine. He gives us GOOD gifts. We confess that some are not ones we would pick for ourselves, but they are always what we need.

They are a revealing of a greater thirst that the world can’t satisfy.
