• Desert Song

  I just wanted to thank everyone who shared their stories with me because of my last entry.  I can’t truly understand the heartache that comes with a miscarriage –or loss of a child.  Though having carried this baby for 23 weeks, I can almost imagine.  It really takes God to understand hard things like this. 

  Coincidentally, my friend Pam told me yesterday about a song I might like.  When I looked it up, I found out that one of the lead singers of that song experienced a miscarriage right before recording that song.  The truths of the song are so perfect for desert times such as those.  Here’s her story and the song.

  
  And I will bring praise
  I will bring praise
  No weapon forged against me shall remain

  I will rejoice
  I will declare
  God is my victory and He is here

  I particularly love the last lines… “This is my prayer in the desert“… which is followed by, “This is my prayer in the harvest, when favor and providence flow, I know I’m filled to be emptied again, the seed I’ve received I will sow.“
