Some other stuff I have written, part 3

Blessed be the name...

This is one of my favorite songs. I have cried to it many times...especially "the You give and take away" part.

When I had a miscarriage.
Every time a round of fertility treatments failed. And that was a lot. 5 years of them.

Now, I have two amazing little boys. Both are blessings straight from God even though they both arrived in very different and amazing ways. When I look at them I am overcome with awe because only the Lord could have done something so incredible. They are both miracles. They have both stolen my heart.

Everything is going well right now. I feel full of blessings. Like it is almost too good to be true. And I wonder when the taking away part is going to start. And then I realize again that I'm not promised tomorrow. And that I have to be thankful for today. And stop wishing that my boys would be a little older so it would be a little easier. Today is what I have. And I have to be thankful and say, "Blessed be your name."

And when, not if, the taking away starts,"My heart will choose to say, blessed be your name" again.
