Trial

I am going through a trial right now. I don't know how long it will last. Actually my husband and I are both going through it. We have been praying and we just feel that our prayers are hitting the ceiling. This is so discouraging. Is the Lord there? Does he really care? It is so hard for me to realize that he cares and that he knows the number of hairs on my head. What a wonderful God we have. I don't understand it at all. It is so difficult for me to praise the Lord when I am having problems and going through a trial. There is a song called "Blessed be the Lord." The words go something like this, " When the world's "all as it should be", when the sun's shining down on me. Blessed be your name. The chorus or the next verse is "On the road marked with suffering, though there's pain in the offering, Blessed be your name. You give and take away, my heart will choose to say.....etc. It is a great song. I realize that this little blog is pretty much a bunch of thoughts thrown together. It doesn't always make a whole lot of sense.
