hello,
this is a song i wrote called “blessings” while in Dallas, Texas. pretty much it is a testimony of the truth of James 1:17 which says “every good and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.”
while my squad was serving with Samaritans Purse in Louisiana there was a hurricane that was going to hit the area we were staying in. this meant we would have to leave days earlier than we had originally thought which was disappointing for a group of young radical believers who just wanted to share the love of Jesus with everyone they came in contact with.
however, despite leaving earlier than intended, we were not met with the reality of going home. rather, we were met with a blessing from God. good friends of the president of AIM (Bob Mudd and i are friends now) opened up their home in Dallas for us to wait out the storm, so that we could return to Louisiana for another week of ministry.
so this song was written while i was sitting on a rock in front of their home, completely dumbfounded because of the Lord’s goodness.
