In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:16

Praise You In This Storm - Casting Crowns

Love this song, Praise You In This Storm by Casting Crowns.  They are an incredible band with a special anointing.

One of my sons worked (as and audio engineer) at an event that Casting Crown was one of the feature bands performing at a few years ago.  When he told me he would be working with them, I had to ask him to tell them what a blessing this song had been to my brother.  See, this brother had gone through a terrible "storm" in his life and this song ministered life to him as he was so down and stripped of purpose.

What was interesting was what the Band told my son.  They said this song was given to them from a mother who wrote the lyrics for her and her daughter as they struggled through the death of this daughter.  The Lord gave the song to the mom and the mom wanted this band to write the music and sing the song that was in her heart.  It was a very moving description that the mother told the band as she was having to deal with the emanate lose of her daughter and how they knew that God would be big enough to see them through their storm.

What an incredible testimony of how GREAT our God is.  I pray this song will minister to you as you find the storms of life that try to overtake you.  See, we all have storms but do we choose to Praise God through our storms?
