I hate it when people I love are hurting. This week, three of the people I am closest to are hurting. I want to fix it, and make it better. I want to hold them until the pain goes away. I want to cry with them and eat ice cream by the pint. It’s times like this when I have to let go and let God. The Bible tells us in James 5:16 That prayer, while often my last resort, "the effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much". And in the valleys it is the only thing this fixer can do.
These lyrics are so powerful. But selfishly, I don't want them to have to go through these trials!
