A Witness

Well, everybody's got a story to tell
And everybody's got a wound to be healed
I want to believe there's beauty here
'Cause oh, I get so tired of holding on
I can't let go, I can't move on
I want to believe there's meaning here

How many times have you heard me cry out
"God please take this?"
How many times have you given me strength to
Just keep breathing?
Oh I need you
God, I need you now

 

As I sold my product today, that song was suddenly in my head.

I looked around at all the people and thought of their stories.

Stories we never hear or will never know. Inside they have pain, In their pain, they are just like us, Me, You, Everyone.

They hurt, they cry, they want to scream, they question Why?

Why Me, Why This?

God has an answer.

 

A young woman rounded the corner as my thoughts were made known.

She stopped. I said,

 "You know  every day I work I see the faces and Stories around me.

I wonder if anyone takes time."

 

She began to move on and I continued talking, I gave her the first line to that song.

Then I said, "I listen to K-Love all time, That Song touches my  heart, and then a young lady's voice comes on to say, "I just lost my little boy 6 months ago".

The lady stopped in her tracks, She looked at me and said,

"We just buried our son last week."

My heart broke, we were both tearing up and I kept saying, "I am so sorry, I am so sorry"

I then referred her to 107.9 K Love in Redding.

I said, "I believe it can touch your heart, and sometime we need that"

 

Her response left me standing in tears,

"You just did"

 

So God I pray every day to be a witness to your love and glory and speak when you give me words to speak. Who knows the stories we may learn and be able to pray about.
