Your Grace Abounds In Deepest Waters
"Because your love is better than life...I will praise you as long as I live."
Psalm 63:4-5
A beautiful girl from my parent's church was killed in a car accident today. She was 17. I can't imagine what her family and friends are going through tonight. Please say a prayer for their broken hearts and grace to lead them in the days to come.
I was thinking about how life can sometimes seem like the most overwhelming, hurtful, discouraging, broken thing...how days can feel darker than we know how to process. The song below has always brought me such divine comfort even when life overwhelms. It's my prayer tonight for anyone that could use some peace.

You call me out upon the waters
The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the mystery
In oceans deep
My faith will stand
And I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise, my soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
Your grace abounds in deepest waters
Your sovereign hand
Will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You've never failed and You won't start now
So I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise, my soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior
Sending love and light.
Sincerely,
Ashley
