John 16:33 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
33 These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.”
December is becoming a season of loss for my extended family; and, unless the Lord returns before the end of this year, another cherished family member will join those who have gone before us. I gave a portion of my day to uploading a poignant song by Alison Krauss and Natalie MacMaster, "Get Me Through December." I find the only way to get through times of trouble in my life is through knowing Jesus, the lover of my soul; and it's a love that can warm the coldest heart.
Get Me Through December
Lyrics
How pale is the sky that brings forth the rain
As the changing of seasons prepares me again
For the long bitter nights and the wild winter's day
My heart has grown cold my love stored away
My heart has grown cold my love stored away
I've been to the mountain left my tracks in the snow
Where souls have been lost and the walking wounded go
I've taken the pain no girl should endure
But faith can move mountains of that I am sure
Faith can move mountains of that I am sure
Just get me through December
A promise I'll remember
Get me through December
So I can start again
No divine purpose brings freedom from sin
And peace is a gift that must come from within
I've looked for the love that will bring me to rest
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest
Feeding this hunger beating strong in my chest
Get me through December
A promise I'll remember
Get me through December
So I can start again
