When the MUSIC meets the LYRICS

God you're amazing.  I thank You for continuously refining me in different ways. Thank you for teaching me the right priorities and right attitude towards living. I sometimes question the peace I feel despite the actual turmoil of the situation. But by Your grace, I'm comforted and I'm blessed.
