This is a post I wrote on my FB page, "Through the Eyes of Joy"… Many of you know last week I had my family in town visiting from Nashville Tennessee, I know I did not post any videos or photos like I wanted to, but I have been going through a very challenging circumstance lately which has made it very difficult for me to be on social media. We had the most amazing time with my parents, sister, and baby nephew, but in the midst of the beautiful family time, I was suffering emotional and physical pain. Actually, over the entire summer, through our trip to the Juvenile Arthritis conference in Houston, our family's vacation in Hawaii, our time in Disneyland, and then the whole time my family was in town, I have been battling skin infections. If any of you know my story, you would know that this is something I have battled several years ago as a result of my Juvenile Arthritis, and then for some reason, out of the blue, I was hit with it again. The worst thing about my infections is that they have been on my face. I have been on antibiotics, and I have been wearing Deuoderm bandages to heal my skin. It's been incredibly painful, heartbreaking, and completely scary to say the least, but through this extremely difficult circumstance I have learned how to trust God even more, even though I don't understand why I'm having to go through this again, on top of my blindness, I have had to truly keep my thoughts on the beautiful blessings in my life in the midst of it all. Here in the next few days I will be doing a video talking about my circumstance in more detail, sharing with you my struggles, my fears, my pain, and how I have still managed to find joy in every day. But until then, I want you to take a few minutes, if you will, and listen to a special moment we captured last Friday night as my mom, my sister Leah, and I sang a beautiful song around the piano in my living room. I pray this song will truly bless you in the way it has blessed me… This song is called, "Showers of Blessings". This is an old family song my two sisters and I grew up singing together. My sister Leah is singing the melody, my mom is singing the alto and is playing the piano, and I am singing the low tenor. Towards the end of the song we do a key change and it is so powerful! You can truly feel God's presence! If you need healing in your body like I do, if you need God to turn around a circumstance in your life, or if you just need God's blessings to pour over your life in a great and mighty way, as you listen to us sing this song of praise, give all of your burdens, worries, fears, and doubts, to the only one who can make the sun shine again! I'm not giving up, I'm still choosing joy even when I'm hurting, believing through eyes of faith that God is working all things out for my good… Through God's amazing grace, His strength, and His unending love, we will see God move in our life, and experience the most refreshing showers of blessings! PS. In this video you may not see it, but on my right side of my chin I am wearing a skin colored bandage… I was truly singing and praising God through my pain💜 #BelievingIsSeeing #Blessings #ItsGoingToGetBetter
