It's funny: I hadn't thought of the song that follows in at least a year, but when I read Kari's comment a few entries down, the words came at me in a flood. So I'm sharing the refrain with you, since I often find that music inspires me and speaks to my heart in ways that regular prose doesn't.
The Impossible / Joe Nichols
Unsinkable ships sink, unbreakable walls break
Sometimes the things you think would never happen
Happen just like that, Unbendable steel bends
If the fury of the wind is unstoppable
I've learned to never underestimate the impossible.
I'm slowly learning to live by that last line: To not underestimate 'the impossible', because after all, with God, ALL things are possible.
G'night, all. Thank you for your prayers and your ears.
Miracles happen when we allow God to do His great work; that's the tack that Logan's mom, Sherry, took when her dear-hearted 4-year old son was diagnosed with an AT/RT brain tumor in August of 2010. From expressions of hope and faith to pained pleas to God above, follow along as she shares her heart, waddles through her 4th pregnancy and the subsequent birth of baby Brady on 12/14/10, prays for her son's recovery and works to amass the biggest team of prayer warriors ever.
About Us
Our family of 6 (dad Adam, mom Sherry, big sister Abby and little brothers Isaac and Brady -- who was born on December 14, 2010) joined the ranks of pediatric cancer fighters when our 4-year old son Logan was diagnosed with a dangerous and highly malignant form of brain cancer in mid-August 2010. Logan's cancer journey began abruptly on Sunday, August 15, when his right eye suddenly turned inward during dinner. Twenty-four hours later, we were checking into Children's Hospital Oakland and finding out that life sometimes takes you places you'd never, ever imagine yourself going.
i wish we had to time and opportunity to just get together and sing songs all day long Sherry! :o)
ReplyDeleteanother touching song ~ those lyrics are so poignant and i'm making them part of my prayer, asking God to show us that the things that seem far off right now for Logan could immediately come to be!
i'm praying for the specifics but will keep asking God to heal Logan completely, totally, and in a matter of time that would just blow our minds!
