God is Here

Yesterday morning our choir sang another inspiring anthem that really touched me. It's called "God is Here". I wasn't able to figure out who wrote it, but it really encouraged me and I hope it does you as well:

"There is a sweet annointing in this sanctuary
There is a stillness in the atmosphere

"O Come lay down
The burden you have carried
For in this sanctuary
God is here

"He is here
God is here
To break the yoke
And lift the heavy burden

"He is here
God is here
To heal the hopeless heart
And bless the broken

"O Come lay down
The burden you have carried
For in this sanctuary
God is here..."

While I freely admit that my burdens seem woefully insignificant to others' I know, God is faithful to bring encouragement to me when I need it most, and this song yesterday was a great example of that. It was another hard week of migraines and trying just to make it through the day of busyness at The Company, including training my new co-worker. While I can work sick and with headaches, I have a hard time working with a migraine, especially when it involves veritgo. My doctor and I have been working on getting the migraines under control but so far, that's not happened. I am thankful for an understanding boss (who himself gets migraines so he can sympathize) and supportive co-workers.

But most of all, I am so thankful that while there are millions all over the globe with life and death issues, God is faithful to be HERE with me as well for my little issues. I don't understand how He can be every where at the same time, but I know He can! :)

Whatever your burdens are, may it be an encouragement that He is there with you, too!
