Do you hear me???…echos a whisper in my head~ Yes, God, I am listening, I have always listened, even when I doubted you were here. I heard your voice tell me to “have faith, miracles can happen.” Yes, my dear Lord, Miracles Do Happen When my faith is in you.
Anyone who knows me will certainly agree my faith has been tested for many years. But, through all of this, and because of this, I have a stronger faith than I ever could have dreamed of and could not have achieved without all of the suffering I have endured. I will be forever grateful that God has taken me down a path that no mother ever imagines she will go. But, God has shown me MIRACLES can “just happen.” And I am thankful that at this moment, my beautiful daughter Brittany is a miracle. She has been drug free almost one year. That continues to ring in my ears, “almost one year….Do You Hear Me????” I smile to myself, and softly repeat back those words I’ve spoken to God so many times,”thank you, Lord.”
I will write more about my journey to this point, and my forever journey that still lies ahead. But at this moment, I sit in silence, reflecting on that inner voice, and my precious miracle.
Everybody falls sometimes
Gotta find the strength to rise
From the ashes
And make a new beginning
Anyone can feel the ache
You think it’s more than you can take
But you’re stronger
Stronger than you know
Don’t you give up now
The sun will soon be shining
You gotta face the clouds
To find the silver lining
I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do
It doesn’t matter what you’ve heard
Impossible is not a word
It’s just a reason
For someone not to try
Everybody’s scared to death
When they decide to take that step
Out on the water
It’ll be alright
Life is so much more
Than what your eyes are seeing
You will find your way
If you keep believing
I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do
Overcome the odds
You don’t have a chance
(That’s what faith can do)
When the world says you can’t
It’ll tell you that you can
I’ve seen dreams that move the mountains
Hope that doesn’t ever end
Even when the sky is falling
And I’ve seen miracles just happen
Silent prayers get answered
Broken hearts become brand new
That’s what faith can do
That’s what faith can do
Even if you fall sometimes
You will have the strength to rise
