A lyric from my grandfather

I’ve been offline for about 10 days so your comments are just now getting published. We’ve been in the fire with my health…it’s bearable now but is still the hardest thing I’ve ever gone through. God is providing. Even when I am angry at Him for not showing me what to do to get better.

My grandfather flew up from Texas this past weekend and was a huge help and support to James and me. He sent me this song when he returned home and i wanted to share it as I am sure many of you can relate. We feel weak so often. We’ve nothing left to do but beg the Lord for His merciful help.

I’m only human, I’m just a woman.
Help me believe in what I could be
And all that I am.
Show me the stairway, I have to climb.
Lord for my sake, teach me to take
One day at a time

One day at a time sweet Jesus
That’s all I’m asking from you.
Just give me the strength
To do everyday what I have to do.
Yesterday’s gone sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine.
Lord help me today, show me the way
One day at a time.
Do you remember, when you walked among men?
Well Jesus you know if you’re looking below
It’s worse now, than then.
Cheating and stealing, violence and crime
So for my sake, teach me to take
One day at a time.

Thank you for sharing such a beautiful song!

Oh, Natalie, I am so sorry to hear that you have been through such a trying and difficult time with your health… I know sometimes life is difficult and you think to yourself that it can’t get much worse and then it does. It is that way for so many of my friends and acquaintances right now =( and my heart really aches for them all but esp. those with health trials because I know that affects you more than a lot of people realize.

*hugs*
Praying for you! May God shower his mercy and grace upon you and I pray He will heal you.

Keeping you in my prayers. So happy that you have such supportive family standing with you and holding you up when needed.

Love the reminder in the lyrics your grandfather sent you… one day at a time…

May God bless you and strengthen you always.

I’m praying for you, Natalie…I’m so sorry it’s so hard right now. Isaiah 43:2 came to my mind with what you said about being in the fire.
