Yesterday I was not feeling too good. I got to church and just wasn't feeling like being there at all. Some people commented afterwards that I looked like I just didn't want to be up there singing my song...and to be honest I didn't (sorry about that). For some reason I just wasn't feeling very thankful.
But, as my father was speaking on the pulpit...I was sitting near the first row when a little boy whom I do not know and have never spoken to before just came up to me and said hello and gave me the most awesome hug. I don't know his name or who he is, but he just came up and threw his arms around me tightly and said hello. That hug really healed me.
You see, I was feeling a bit upset and bothered by the fact that to some people it seems I am not good enough to do certain things but I am good enough to serve as entertainment to them. That really bothers me. I think God used that little boy to tell me "its ok...things will get better....I'm right here".
I love the lyrics to the song Help Is On The Way from the album A New Hallelujah...this song has been stuck in my head since yesterday and I believe it's another way God is letting me know he is with me:
Hold on...help is on the way
Help is on the way
He said He'd never leave you or forsake you
Be strong, help is on the way
He said He'd help you
Jest reach out and hold His hand
When things seem dire, and people bring you down, look for the little things that God might be using to bring you back up.
