In the Quiet

It's been one of those hard days today.  There are many reasons; most of which I will not be sharing.  They can really all be summed up in one word.  Life. It brings some of the most joyful and empowering moments, but unfortunately couples with times of great loneliness and disappointment.  I was in my car today shedding a few tears when the words to this song came to my mind.  

In the quiet, love is reaching
It's yours to hold, be still and know that
Even when you're lost and lonely
And hope is gone, you're not alone

Far beyond the understanding
There's a hand that leads
If you believe

Through the darkness, see the light
Remember God loves you

The road ahead is long and winding
With eyes of faith, you'll find the way, yeah
And when the journey leaves you weary
You can rest in the comfort of Heaven's arms
Sweet loving arms

And peace will follow
Peace be with you always as you go
For now you know that

Through the darkness, there's a light
Remember God loves you

When you open up your heart
His love will meet you where you are
He will always be a part of everything you do
He is here to set you free
And give you all the strength you need
To carry on, to carry on

Through the darkness, see the light
Remember God loves you

The life I lead is a beautiful one filled with love, joy and hope, but it also experiences its fair share of disappointment, loneliness and frustration.  

Today is a day to remember that even in the quiet of loneliness God loves me.
