Valley of Vision

This weekend was emotional and hard, encouraging, fun and so great! Thank you Mindy for coming so far to be here. You are the kind of friend that anyone would die to have walking with them through life. You are a precious sister to me!
I will update you on all the fun stuff we did and all the work we accomplished over the weekend later, but tonight I want to leave you with a song. Mindy brought me this CD knowing that it would mean so much to me. I hope it helps you love the Lord more, especially in light of how the valleys in our lives are truly blessings. He takes us there with a purpose and completely out of love. The valley is a good place to be...maybe even better than the mountain tops places.

Valley of Vision

When you Lead me to the valley of vision
I can see You in the heights
And though my humbling wouldn't be my decision
It's here Your glory shines so bright
So let me learn that the cross precedes the crown
To be low is to be high
That the valley's where You make me more like Christ

Let me find Your grace in the valley
Let me find Your life in my death
Let me find Your joy in my sorrow
Your wealth in my need
That You're near with every breath
In the valley

In the daytime there are stars in the heavens
But they only shine at night
And the deeper that I go into darkness
The more I see their radiant light
So let me learn that my losses are my gain
To be broken is to heal
That the valley's where Your power is revealed

Let me find Your grace in the valley
Let me find Your life in my death
Let me find Your joy in my sorrow
Your wealth in my need
That You're near with every breath
In the valley
