Sunshine in the Valley
.
Let the sun shine in the valley
Chase the shadows far far away
It breaks my heart to see you suffer
It breaks my heart to see your pain
.
If i could turn the clocks around
And let the cogs themselves unwind
Return once more to yesteryear
Firmly anchored ‘gainst the wind
.
Father God there’s only You
Shielding us from desolation
Preserving us from devastation
With you on our side we must abide

Every pain has a reason, and can be used to the glory of God.
Its hard to see when we are in that moment and often we have to let
the light in to those dark places in order to see it, to allow our
eyes to see beyond our own suffering, but it can be.

I agree that there is always a reason. A lot of good has come of this. My family has grown much closer. A wonderful result of what has happened and is still happening. It has brought , and is still bringing, us closer to God in ways which I could never have imagined. But it is still one of the most painful episodes too! Thank you x for reminding me. Sometimes we are too wrapped up in the pain to view the positive side effects.

Thanks, Sylvia. Thought of you and your alligator while I was away. We saw stacks of crocs in the Sabie river and surrounding dams. I really don’t think I could have one at the bottom of my garden – ever! xxx
